Letter to the editor: Witnesses from both sides should be heard

In light of the Republican side of the Senate refusing to hear witnesses, can we expect that the symbol of the Republican Party will now be the ostrich instead of the elephant?

Many people of all political persuasions were anticipating hearing depositions under oath. We are now disappointed that we won’t hear the truth unless we buy John Bolton’s book.

I am guessing that the president will drop any formal investigation of Ukrainian corruption, and that the next time we’ll hear of Hunter Biden will be one month before the presidential election, when Rudy Giuliani releases some sort of scurrilous video in an attempt to spread further political manure just prior to the vote.

Of course, any exoneration of Hunter Biden will come a few months after the election.

What would be wrong with witnesses from both sides now … under oath?
