Why won't they testify?

If there's nothing to hide, why won't they show up and testify as such?

Russ Vought, the acting director of the OMB, tweeted in October that he and Mike Duffey, another top OMB official, would not comply with congressional requests for depositions. "As the WH letter made clear two weeks ago, OMB officials - myself and Mike Duffey - will not be complying with deposition requests this week. #shamprocess," Vought wrote on Twitter on October 21.

    Why won't Schiff let the Bidens be called as witnesses?

    Try reading article 2, section 4 of the constitution first.

    It's related to this being a sham. Why cooperate when the other side is clearly trying to influence the outcome? You'd think Hunter and Joe would love to clear their names.

    This feels very similar to "Hillary's Emails" The outrage was about how the emails were obtained. ( Process ) When the emails themselves were quite damning. Media never focused on that. This shit isn't hard. It isn't an accident.

    My viewpoint is why cooperate when the opposing side is playing dirty.

    Look at yesterday. Closed door hearing to "try out" a witness before being interviewed in front of public. No transcript provided. Meanwhile CNN posting all sorts of information about what happened in that closed door session.

    You wanna do this? Do it right or you'll get people resisting participating because it is a sham.

    You still won't answer the question. If Trump is innocent, why won't his people testify to prove its a sham?

    Be careful when you answer. You already said the same about Biden.... Reread what you wrote. And from what I've seen, Schiff hasn't officially denied any witness yet.

    Except joe and hunter are not being impeached or need to clear their names. Trump does because he’s being impeached. You’d think he’d want to clear his name. He’s avoiding it all cost, and adding to list of obstructions of justice in the articles of impeachment. The senate trial is getting longer every day due to trump dereliction.

    Executive privilege. It would destroy it forever.

    Senate can call the Biden's and many others.

    Sledog is on board for impeachment and the upcoming senate trial! You think McConnell can get 51 votes to pass rules to call Biden? That would be news to McConnell.

    dems are in too deep and afraid to bail out now. I think they should but they won't. It's going to be a huge embarrassment and the Senate will drag this into the election and subpoena most of the important dems up for ejection (election) and it'll be fun! And c great payback

    The answer to your question is when it's an unfair, manipulated, process, people choose not to participate. It's simple, really. Same thing would happen if either Biden was called to testify.

    I'll come back to this? What's the big fucking deal? Is it because Biden's running for president? In negotiations, there is always going to be some arm twisting. Of course it's about Biden running for president. That's what the dems are latched onto.

    So answer me this. So Biden gets a pass on this because he's running for president? I don't think so.

    During the Benghazi hearings, do you remember Hillary testifying? Do you recall Obama saying witnesses couldn't testify?

    You keep avoiding the question. Trump is the subject matter here and he's keeping his people from testifying. If he's truly innocent, then they should have no problems answering questions. Republicans get equal time for questioning.

    If Biden is guilty, Barr can investigate him all he wishes. Or the Senate can open an investigation. That's a separate matter, go after him all you want. The difference between you and I.... If Biden is guilty I want him gone too.

    Academic exercise.

    Let's say hypothetically the US knows that Biden is guilty of corruption or Bribary with the Ukraine but the US needs evidence from the Ukrainian government and they're not cooperating. US government is set to provide 100s of millions in aid to the Ukrainian government. How do you get the evidence you need?

    Why don't people want to testify? They know that the dems are out to destroy anyone in Trump's orbit. Flynn is a great past example. Life and reputation pretty much ruined. Why gamble that if you don't need to?

    Have you ever been served a subpoena and gave a deposition? I have. I was an employee of a business being sued by another business. I did nothing wrong. The suing party had great lawyers. The business I worked for had shitty lawyers. It was not a lot of fun. Imagine doing that on TV. Got served papers on a Thanksgiving with 30 people at my house. This shit generally sucks.
