What's your opinion on why Burr subpoenaed Jr?

[SHRED]

It seems real fishy to me.

[underpants]

1. To provide a forum for him to display his worldly vision and nuanced insights

[Pachamama]

2. He was confronted about what he did and being further exposed if he continues to do that shit...

That's my guess

[kentuck]

3. He's trying to compensate for the news report from a week or so ago...

...that reported he had been informing the White House on the sly.

He is attempting to regsin his credibility with the Democrats on the Committee by permitting them to have an interview with Don Jr, in my opinion.

4. The usual repug m.o. is to do this to embarass the Dems.

Burr's motives, probably the same but maybe not???

[Jarqui]

5. Daddy has had access to the Mueller report and evidence for several weeks now

His son will be prepped by a team of lawyers with a statement and a run through of Q&A known in advance from GOP Senators to dilute the perjury charge potential against him.

They're pretending he'll fight it kicking and screaming all the way.
But he'll just follow the misinformation script like GOP pundits do with their talking points.

Meanwhile, the Dem Senators won't have access to the full Mueller report or the underlying evidence they would have otherwise used to question him.

From the GOP perspective, this is a prime time to subject him to this.

[Horizens]

6. It

seems real fishy to me as well.

[C_U_L8R]

7. It sure smells like a GOP publicity stunt.

And a coordinated whitewash of his prior perjury.
I expect our Democratic Senators to be very prepared.

8. Giving him a chance to correct the record,

He committed perjury, he should be playing horseshoes with Cohen right now.

[Cirque du So-What]

13. Horseshoes...

...or cornhole. Hey, it's a real game!

[Sanity Claws]

9. to avoid referring him to DOJ for perjury prosecution

They referred Prince for perjury prosecution but apparently will give Junior to correct his lying self.
Just a guess.

[Hoyt]

10. To give Junior a chance to correct what he said before. He'll claim he was confused or something,

correct and "inaccuracies" made to Congress, and greatly reduce -- if not eliminate -- the chances he will ever be charged for lying to Congress.

The only other explanation is the Burr has wised up, knows trump is going down at some point, and Burr wants to distance himself --and some GOPers -- from the whole trump pile of crud.

[Wellstone ruled]

11. Burr is not seeking reelection

and Senator Warner is being allowed to do a dog and pony show as a wet kiss. Stunt stunt stunt. You know damn well Deranged Donnie has the Junior Pardon papers already signed just in case.

McConnell is reading his dailies and they must really be ugly to allow this to happen. Watch the spin form this to hit Hyper Speed.

[Hassler]

12. CYA--to try to rehabilitate his reputation for feeding Chump committee Intel.
