Democrats who control the US House of Representatives, however, likely will reject appearances by Hunter Biden and the unidentified whistleblower in the hearings due to open on Wednesday. Should the House impeach Trump, the Republican-controlled Senate would conduct a trial that could see him removed from office. In asking for the whistleblower, Nunes said that Trump "should be afforded an opportunity to confront his accusers." In a statement issued after receiving Nunes' letter, Schiff said the Republicans' proposed witness list was being evaluated. But, he indicated he likely will reject the requests for Hunter Biden, Archer and several other proposed witnesses.
