Trump Jr. subpoena sparks internal GOP battle

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Burr’s surprise decision to subpoena Donald Trump Jr. has set off an internal fight among Senate Republicans, some of whom are now pressing the North Carolina Republican to back off the request.

These Republicans argue that Trump Jr., the president’s eldest son, has spent enough time testifying before Congress and that the delivery of special counsel Robert Mueller’s report means it is time to end the investigations of the last presidential election.

“There’s no need for another subpoena for @DonaldJTrumpJr It’s time to move on & focus on issues Americans care about,” Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) tweeted Thursday.

He was one of several Republicans in the House and Senate who was critical of the decision to subpoena Trump Jr., which Burr made in consultation with his panel’s ranking member, Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.).

5. It's so damn obvious

The whole "interview" with DTJr is going to be one big caress ending in rethugs beaming with happiness that he is shown to be completely innocent, blameless, and anyone who says otherwise is evil and working for the Democrats.

The only thing this story shows is who is in on it (or figured it out) and who is not.
