As witness fight rages, whistleblower fades away

With a Senate impeachment trial likely just days away, President Trump and Democrats are locked in a cycle of mutual trolling over whether the trial should include testimony from witnesses.

Democrats are pressing Republicans to accept witnesses. They’ve made public a list of four, led by former national security adviser John Bolton. Some Republicans are countering that the Senate should summon Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, whose suspicious paychecks from a corrupt Ukrainian company were part of the beginning of the Trump-Ukraine affair.
