‘Total political distraction’: Schumer won’t offer impeachment deal that includes Hunter Biden testimony

Sen. Chuck Schumer won’t consider striking a deal with Republicans to allow Hunter Biden to testify in exchange for testimony from witnesses requested by Democrats.

The Senate minority leader penned a letter Sunday night announcing that he wants to hear from four witnesses to President Trump’s July 25 Ukraine call, including Robert Blair, senior adviser to the acting White House chief of staff; Mick Mulvaney, acting White House chief of staff; John Bolton, former national security adviser; and Michael Duffey, associate director for national security for the Office of Management and Budget.
