President Trump, emboldened after the special counsel said he did not find evidence of a criminal conspiracy to sway the 2016 election, has an early target as he seeks recompense from his critics: Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Burbank), who maintains that he’s seen evidence that Trump colluded with Russia.
Over the last two years, Schiff, who has led the House Intelligence Committee since January, has emerged as a public foil to Trump and his supporters. He has delivered scathing takedowns of Trump for calling Robert Mueller’s probe a “witch hunt,” and he offered similar criticism of Trump’s congressional allies now leading a charge to depose Schiff as chairman on the grounds that his bias against the president makes him unfit to lead.
Yet even as House Democrats make a clear pivot away from the collusion question, they continue to rally around Schiff — who refuses to let the matter go until lawmakers can assess the investigative materials that informed Mueller’s findings.
“Undoubtedly there is collusion,” Schiff said in an interview this week, after Atty. Gen. William Barr
submitted a four-page letter to Congress summarizing key aspects of Mueller’s report. “We will continue to investigate the counterintelligence issues. That is, is the president or people around him compromised in any way by a hostile foreign power? . . . It doesn’t appear that was any part of Mueller’s report.”
A Justice Department official said Tuesday it would take weeks to make at least part of the Mueller report public. House Democrats on Monday gave Barr an April 2 deadline to provide Congress with a copy.
This week, the Trump campaign singled out Schiff, along with Intelligence Committee member Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Dublin), on a list of people it urged media outlets to avoid booking for interviews after Barr announced Mueller’s findings, according to reports. The list includes House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) and former CIA Director John Brennan, both of whom, like Schiff, have infuriated the president with their public scrutiny and criticism.
Though Barr’s summary has cast doubt on the premise of the Intelligence Committee’s Russia probe, at least among Republicans, Democrats maintain that Schiff is not wrong in saying that there was evidence of collusion, even if Mueller determined that the matter did not rise to a level that warranted prosecution.
“It doesn’t mean there wasn’t an enormous amount of smoke there,” said Rep. Peter Welch (D-Vt.), a member of the Intelligence Committee. “This was a fine legal distinction Mr. Mueller had to make.
Still, Schiff has taken steps to put the panel’s investigation on hold, pending the release of Mueller’s findings. On Monday, he announced that the committee had indefinitely postponed a planned hearing with Felix Sater, a former business associate of the president who was involved in the pursuit to build a Trump Tower in Moscow.
or just plain evil.
ReplyDeleteHe is hiding something
ReplyDeleteThe word is that:
Delete- Schiff has attended many a fancy dress party at the home of Ed Buck, including at least one party where he dressed as an ancient Egyptian
- Ed Buck is now under arrest in relation to the meth drug overdose deaths of two young black male prostitutes at Ed Buck's home. Apparently Ed likes to inject young black men with meth before engaging in all manner of acts and taking pictures. A third black male prostitute barely survived such an ordeal and has talked.
- Ed Buck is a major Democratic donor, so the two previous meth deaths at his home were simply ignored by the authorities
We also know, from hard documentation, and from promotional videos that Nancy Pelosi made(!) that:
- the Pelosi, Biden, and Kerry kids at least are involved up to their eyeballs in corrupt Ukraine companies, Ukraine companies that laundered vast sums (billions) and Ukraine companies that send millions of dollars to to Hillary Clinton 2016 campaign
