** Schiff: House Republicans Are Trying to ‘Undermine the Rule of Law’ for Trump
------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------

Monday on MSNBC’s All In ([link removed]) , Rep. Adam Schiff ([link removed]) (D-CA) said that Republicans in the House are attempting to “undermine the rule of law” for former President Trump.

Anchor Chris Hayes ([link removed]) said, “There’s been reporting that the ex-president has been calling congressional allies, and of course, it is his allies that run of the United State House of Representatives, he’s urging them basically to do two things, as far as I can read the reporting. One is to tighten the screws on Bragg by any means they can. Investigate the Manhattan district attorney, subpoena him, whatever. The other is to tighten the screws on Joe Biden, the president’s family, Hunter Biden, to accelerate that stuff. What do you make of those reports?”

Schiff said, “Well, I don’t know whether exactly the Trump people have given those marching orders to Republicans in Congress. I’m not sure they needed to. During the Ukraine investigation, Jim Jordan and others — they acted like the criminal defense lawyers for Donald Trump, and they’re doing it again. You know, whether Jim Jordan and Kevin McCarthy needed prodding or not, I don’t know. But they’ve already been writing to the Manhattan DA, demanding evidence, threatening essentially implicitly that he will be subpoenaed if they don’t comply. They’re acting like they can use the power of Congress to do criminal discovery. Something that, you know, the lawyers for Trump can do. He already has criminal defense lawyers, probably perfectly good ones. He doesn’t need members of Congress to do that.

“But it is deeply concerning that Congress would try to interfere in the administration of justice,” the congenital liar continued. “I serve on that Judiciary Committee now. When I was removed from the Intelligence Committee, I was put in the senior position on the Judiciary Committee. You better believe I’m going to use my position in that committee to fight against these efforts to undermine the rule of law because that’s exactly what they’re trying to do here.”

Puh-leeze. Democrats care absolutely nothing for the rule of law. This is pure posturing on his part, with the complicity of the leftwing media helping to shape the false narrative about their feared and hated political opponent Donald Trump.

** Schiff Lies Repeatedly to Promote the Trump-Russia “Collusion” Hoax
------------------------------------------------------------

In early February 2017, Schiff tried to promote ([link removed]) the narrative that former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, prior to Trump’s inauguration, may have violated the Logan Act ([link removed]) by seeking, during a phone call with Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak, to undercut then-President Obama’s existing sanctions against Russia. In its February 14, 2017 issue, The Atlantic magazine quoted Schiff saying: “Trump’s team, through Flynn, reaches out to the Russian ambassador and potentially says, ‘Don’t worry about those sanctions. We’re going to take care of business. We’re not going to bite the hand that fed us.’ That’s something that needs to be investigated. That’s hugely consequential.” But as investigative reporter John Solomon subsequently noted ([link removed]

“By the time Schiff uttered those words, the FBI agent who had investigated Flynn’s contacts with Russia had already concluded on Jan. 4, 2017 that there was ‘no derogatory information’ about Flynn’s contacts and recommended closing down the case, according to recently declassified FBI memos. And … the FBI had informed DOJ by late January 2017 that Flynn was not acting as an agent of Russia. Likewise, the main prosecutor for national security cases inside the Justice Department, Mary McCord, and others thought prosecuting Flynn under the Logan Act was unlikely or a ‘long shot’ after reading Flynn’s actual words from a transcript of his conversation with the Russian ambassador [which had been secretly recorded by U.S. intelligence agents]…. And a top FBI official’s handwritten notes expressed concern the bureau’s treatment of Flynn amounted to ‘playing games’ and appeared to involve an effort to get him into an interview where he might [lie] so he could prosecuted or fired.”

In a March 22, 2017 interview with MSNBC’s Chuck Todd, Schiff claimed ([link removed]) there was “more than circumstantial evidence” that Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign had colluded with Russian government operatives to tilt the election in his favor. When Todd asked Schiff if he had “seen direct evidence of collusion,” the congressman replied: “I don’t want to go into specifics, but I will say that there is evidence that is not circumstantial and is very much worthy of investigation, so that is what we ought to do.” From that point forward, Schiff established himself as one of the Democrat Party’s leading voices demanding Trump’s impeachment, repeatedly proclaiming to the media that the evidence against the president was overwhelming...
