BREAKING: Republican-led Senate panel authorizes subpoena in Hunter Biden probe
As the most reliable and balanced news aggregation service on the internet, DML News App offers the following information published by Politico:
A Senate committee voted on Wednesday to authorize a subpoena as part of a Republican-led investigation targeting former Vice President Joe Biden’s son Hunter.
The party-line vote in the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee came amid vigorous objections from Democrats, who have accused their GOP counterparts of aiding Russian disinformation efforts and improperly using the Senate’s resources to boost President Donald Trump’s political fortunes.
The article goes on to state the following:
Wednesday’s vote authorizes the committee’s chairman, Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), to subpoena Blue Star Strategies, a Democratic public-relations firm that did consulting work for Burisma, a Ukrainian energy company whose board Hunter Biden sat on. Johnson’s probe focuses on allegations that Blue Star Strategies sought to leverage Biden’s position on the board in order to influence matters at the Obama-era State Department.
In addition to seeking documents from Blue Star Strategies, the subpoena includes a deposition for its CEO, Karen Tramontano.
Johnson reportedly stated, “The question I would ask is, what is everybody worried about? If there’s nothing there, we’ll find out there’s nothing there. But if there’s something there, the American people need to know that.”

Joe Biden’s son Hunter has repeatedly used Biden’s name for financial benefit.
From 2014 to 2015, Hunter Biden & his business partners were paid $3.4 million to represent Burisma Holdings to have “well-connected Democrats” defend the company from US & Ukrainian investigations.
