McConnell reaffirms he has 'no choice': Senate will take up impeachment if it passes House... https://currently.att.yahoo.com/news/mit...09593.html
His comments in an interview with CNBC confirm the position he took in an interview with NPR in March... “Under the Senate rules weâ€re required to take it up if the House does go down that path, and weâ€ll follow the Senate rules,†McConnell said Monday. “Itâ€s a Senate rule related to impeachment that would take 67 votes to change, so I would have no choice but to take it up. How long youâ€re on it is a whole different matter, but I would have no choice but to take it up based on a Senate rule on impeachment.â€

A photo obtained by Fox News' "Tucker Carlson Tonight" shows former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter golfing in the Hamptons with Devon Archer, who served on the board of the Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma Holdings with Hunter.
Earlier this month, Joe Biden told Fox News in Iowa that he never discussed his sonâ€s foreign business dealings with him.
“I have never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings,†Biden said, pointing the finger at President Trump. “I know Trump deserves to be investigated. He is violating every basic norm of a president. You should be asking him why is he on the phone with a foreign leader, trying to intimidate a foreign leader. You should be looking at Trump.â€
Hunter Biden told The New Yorker previously that he and his father had spoken “just once†about his work in Ukraine.
A source told Fox News the photo was taken in August 2014. Contemporaneous news reports indicated the vice president was in the Hamptons at the time.
Hunter Biden and Archer joined the Burisma Holdings board in April 2014.
Earlier this month, Trump suggested that despite his claims, Joe Biden seemingly discussed Ukraine matters with his son. The White House has sought to point to possible corruption by the Bidens, amid the House Democrats' formal impeachment inquiry against the president.

The photo is interesting, but of course not explicit.
I keep reading all sorts of justifications for Biden's son's job, but none explain the very basic core thing about it, why they would hire a person with zero experience for the position.

We all in our gut know why, and I suspect he is hardly the only case. Â Probably ***** like this going on all over the place in DC.

Media's take:Â It's just a previously debunked conspiracy theory.

Oops! He must have forgotten posing for this picture? He should just drop out, do the speaking circuit, collect his fees, and continue hugging women from behind, smelling their hair, getting handsy with young girls, etc etc etc. He's the creepy uncle you stay away from at Thanksgiving.

Yes, company BoDs often select folks who have some "pull" of one sort or another, or they select a Nobel Laureate just for imagery.
Some foreign gas company gets Biden Jr. who has zero experience because ..... well, it's obvious.
Well, that didnâ€t take long. Itâ€s been what? 12 hours?... https://www.redstate.com/bonchie/2019/10...got-blown/
Adam Schiff and company released several pages of cherry-picked text conversations late last night which revolved around Ukraine and Trump offering a quid pro quo. The only supposedly “damning†parts of the text messages involved a man named Bill Taylor, who appeared to have direct knowledge of a quid pro quo.
Turns out, he had no knowledge. Zero. Nada. What Mr. Taylor had... was read an August, 29 2019 Politico article, took it as gospel, approached some of his superiors via text messages, and was immediately and unequivocally shut down.
We noticed the original tweet was deleted after we posted our fact check. Here's a screenshot, in case you missed it. Truth hurts. https://t.co/HHHz0Te5PT pic.twitter.com/ZJ4KDcEGHR — Oversight Committee Republicans (@GOPoversight) October 4, 2019
LINK to the 8/28/2019 Politico article >>> https://t.co/Jr5n2umX1M. The same players keep popping up. Who contributed to that article? Fusion GPS mouthpiece Natasha Bertrand. Things that make my go hmmm.
The Federalist obtained a copy of Volker's opening statement to congress... https://thefederalist.com/2019/10/04/testimony-from-ukraine-envoy-kurt-volker-directly-contradicts-democrats-impeachment-narrative/
Testimony from Ukraine envoy Kurt Volker, which was obtained by The Federalist, blows holes directly through the impeachment narrative that congressional Democrats have crafted against President Donald Trump.
Congressional testimony from the former top American envoy to Ukraine directly contradicts the impeachment narrative offered by congressional Democrats and their media allies. Ambassador Kurt Volker, who served for two years as the top U.S. diplomatic envoy to Ukraine, testified on Thursday that he was never aware of and never took part in any effort to push the Ukrainian government to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden or his son Hunter. He also stressed that the interactions between Giuliani and Ukrainian officials were facilitated not to find dirt on Biden, but to assuage concerns that the incoming Ukrainian government would not be able to get a handle on corruption within the country.
