As COVID-19 cases continue to surge in the U.S., Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is ruling out a vote on a comprehensive stimulus bill. "Red and Blue" host Elaine Quijano spoke to CBSN political reporter Caitlin Huey-Burns, CBS News chief congressional correspondent Nancy Cordes, and Politico White House correspondent and associate editor Anita Kumar about that and the other political headlines of the day.
Mr. Trump attacked Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden, in one of the most contentious exchanges of the first presidential debate.
At the first presidential debate on Tuesday night, Joe Biden criticized President Trump's alleged comments calling fallen soldiers "losers," saying his late son Beau Biden, who served in Iraq, was "not a loser." Mr. Trump tried to respond with attacks on Biden's other son, Hunter Biden, saying "I don't know Beau."
Democrats dismissed the investigation as "faulty" and rooted in Russian disinformation.
Joe Biden's children, Hunter and Ashley, introduced him before he accepted the Democratic nomination for president on Thursday night and also paid tribute to their late brother Beau. Watch their introduction.
A senate committee investigating potential ties between Democrats and Ukraine is issuing a subpoena to a consulting firm that worked with Burisma Holdings. Burisma figured in the impeachment inquiry into President Trump and is the gas company where Joe Biden's son Hunter served on the board. CBS News chief congressional correspondent Nancy Cordes joins CBSN with more.
The committee is seeking documents from Blue Star Strategies related to its work with Burisma Holdings, the Ukrainian energy company that employed Hunter Biden.
The letter said GOP senators were trying "to shift the blame for Russian interference in the 2016 election to Ukraine."
Chairman Ron Johnson informed committee members of the decision to delay the vote to subpoena Andrii Telizhenko, a former Ukrainian diploma.
Senator Chris Murphy wrote that he is "deeply concerned" that the agencies "may not be applying a consistent test" for congressional demands.
A spokesperson for Romney said he was satisfied that the investigation into Burisma would not become a "public spectacle."
Senator Ron Johnson, who chairs the Senate Homeland Security Committee, told members that he intends to schedule a vote to approve a subpoena for documents related to its investigation into Burisma Holdings, a Ukrainian energy company.
After first demanding an "immediate trial," President Trump is now calling for the articles of impeachment to be dismissed. Two senior administration officials say they do not believe extra witnesses should be called in the Senate trial, but the White House believes there will likely be enough Republican defectors to pass a vote to hear from more people. Weijia Jiang reports that Mr. Trump's lawyers are prepared with their own list of witnesses should that happen.
Former Rudy Giuliani associate Lev Parnas insisted he was working on President Trump's behalf when he pressured Ukrainian leaders to investigate the Bidens, while the president has denied even knowing Parnas. In addition to Trump and Vice President Mike Pence, Parnas implicated a host of officials who he says knew about the Ukraine pressure campaign. Nancy Cordes reports on the new evidence from Capitol Hill.
