Oddly, the Republicans did not touch on the scheduled deposition and raid that you are harping on.

The Republican members of congress are not allowed to broach certain topics in questioning unless Schiff allows it.  There are depositions that the GOP wants made public so that they can reference them, this is the same with the Dossier compiled by Giuliani.  Again, what you have is an extraconstitutional proceeding where the guy in charge is essentially prosecuting the charge of first degree murder.  If the judge bars any mention of the fact that the alleged victim is in fact alive then that is misconduct on the part of the judge, not proof of murder.  

In this case there was a court filing on 2/2/2019, Burisma itself announced that the cases weren't dismissed until September of that year https://www.kyivpost.com/business-wire/j...reloaded=1.  Hunter Biden was scheduled to testify and his lawyers immediately contacted Lutsenko, the prosecutor that Biden helped get appointed after Shokin was fired, to apologize for disinformation and offer introductions to US officials to smooth out relations.  

Again, what you're asking us to believe is that Joe Biden was so concerned about corruption that he allowed his son and his sons business partner to go to work for one of the most corrupt Oligarchs in the world.  Allowed a billion dollars of US funds to flow to the bank owned by Burisma's owner, and fired the prosecutor investigating the case.
