The progressive communist democrats seem to have a never-ending amount of chutzpah as they seek to be rewarded for their inappropriate, and often criminal, behavior…
Among the most despicable of the progressive communist democrats is liar, and leaker Adam Schiff, known as the Bolshevik of Burbank, who has his hand out on every occasion.
I’ve got some bad news:
Kevin McCarthy and the Republican Party just did what they’ve threatened for the last two years.
They removed me from the House Intelligence Committee where I have served as Chairman and the top Democrat for years.
This is political retribution for my leading the impeachment of Donald Trump, pure and simple, and a dangerous effort to go after anyone who holds them accountable. It also turns the Intelligence Committee into a political plaything for their right-wing supporters.
Stephen, I really need you with me to help respond to this baseless attack on my ability to serve my constituents and the American people.
Please, contribute $10 or whatever you can spare today to help me respond to Republicans’ baseless attacks on my ability to hold them accountable. This isn’t the end of my fight for truth, accountability, and our democracy. In fact, it’s only the start:

I’ll have much more to say soon. But for now, thanks for standing with me — because it’s not just a personal attack on me. It’s an attack on accountability and effective oversight.
And it’s up to all of us to fight back.

Schiff’s removal from the House Intelligence Committee was well-justified as he is a proven liar, leaker, and falsifier of evidence. However, the douchebags are attempting to spin this appropriate action as retribution for how Democrats mistreated Republicans when they were in the majority, and Nancy Pelosi barred chosen GOP representatives from the Committee, arguing that they were not fit to serve.
The Case For Booting Adam Schiff From The House Intel Committee
In March 2017, Schiff said on MSNBC “there is more than circumstantial evidence” that Trump’s campaign colluded with the Russian government.
As a 2019 report from the DOJ inspector general showed, Schiff himself had been lying about Russian collusion since the inception of the hoax.
As chair, Schiff’s deposition hearings were held behind closed doors while the committee selectively leaked snippets of testimony to amplify their own narratives to a complicit press. In fact, leaking on the Intelligence Committee became a favorite practice of the congressman, whose habitual leaks made their way uncritically into the pages of The New York Times.
When he wasn’t leaking to the allied press machine, Schiff was making up his own evidence to promote the Democrats’ fabricated narratives. In September 2019, Schiff created his own transcript of the phone call between Trump and Zelensky which was supposed to be the smoking gun that warranted impeachment.
In December 2021, Schiff doctored text messages between GOP Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan and former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows. Schiff manipulated messages presented at an official hearing to expose “a lawmaker” pressing the vice president to unilaterally deny certification of the electoral college votes as unconstitutional. The message, however, actually came from Washington attorney and former Department of Defense Inspector General Joseph Schmitz, and was merely forwarded by the Ohio congressman. The Jan. 6 Committee even conceded that Schiff’s messages were manipulated.
Schiff has remained laser-focused on Trump’s criminal conviction even after the president left office. True to form, the California Democrat and member of the Select Committee on Jan. 6 went on CNN in June as the panel proceeded with summer show trials to foreshadow evidence of culpability that never came.
“We’ll show evidence of the President’s involvement in this scheme,” Schiff said, presumably in reference to the plans Trump openly supported to halt certification of the Electoral College votes on Jan. 6, 2021, as if it were a cover-up for something illegal. (Never mind that Democrats objected to certification in 2001, 2005, and 2017.) Schiff refused to reveal his “evidence,” however, because he didn’t “want to get ahead” of the upcoming hearing.
It was routine commentary from the California congressman who has been at the center of practically every fabricated scandal against President Trump since the pair began to emerge into the national spotlight in 2015. Schiff’s work on the Jan. 6 probe, which wrapped up its hearings this fall with nothing to show, highlights the dishonesty of his tenure. <Source> IG Report Confirms Schiff FISA Memo Media Praised Was Riddled With Lies. <Source>
About that fundraising – selling your name to others for big bucks…
Rep. Adam Schiff (D., Calif.) wants voters to think he's a selfless patriot who risked his career and lost his committee assignments to hold former president Donald Trump accountable.
But his financial records tell a different story: that of a relatively unknown congressman who hitched himself to the "Resistance" bandwagon and milked tens of millions of dollars from donors across the country.
A Washington Free Beacon review of Schiff's financial disclosures shows that the California Democrat ramped up fundraising efforts just as he began his quest to impeach Trump. Schiff, who spent just $134,000 on fundraising in 2016, by 2018 poured nearly $2 million into ads urging supporters to "chip in" to help with his investigations into Trump's alleged dirty dealings.
But these donations didn't go toward oversight efforts, which are funded by congressional committees. Instead, they went right into Schiff's campaign coffers, which now hold $21 million. Schiff, who has represented his deep-blue Los Angeles district since 2001, won 10 of his 11 elections without such a massive war chest. But the money could soon come in handy.
Schiff is widely believed to be eyeing Sen. Dianne Feinstein's (D., Calif.) Senate seat, in what will likely be a contentious Democratic primary. Schiff’s fellow California progressive Rep. Katie Porter (D.) has already announced her intention to run in 2024 to replace Feinstein, who has yet to announce her retirement. Winning the nomination will require cash, fundraising chops, and name recognition. Thanks to his tussle with Trump, Schiff now has all three.
In 2016, Schiff had little national name recognition and just $2.1 million on hand. But as the ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee, he was in a prime position to boost his profile as rumors began to swirl about the then-president-elect's alleged ties to Russia.
On January 22, 2020, Schiff led the House's impeachment trial of Trump. In the days immediately after the hearings, he spent $600,000 on ad buys. One Facebook ad from the end of January urges supporters to "help Adam fight for transparency, accountability, and fairness on the House floor without having to spend time fundraising." By the time Trump left office in January 2021, Schiff had over $13 million in his campaign coffers—a nearly seven-fold increase from when Trump took office.
With Trump out of office and the Russia hoax thoroughly debunked, Schiff has sought out greener pastures. In July 2021, then-House speaker Nancy Pelosi appointed Schiff to the select congressional committee tasked with probing Trump's culpability in the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot. That month, Schiff spent $540,000 on fundraising ads tied to the appointment.
Schiff's campaign dropped more than $1.2 million in ads in the months surrounding the October release of his book Midnight in Washington: How We Almost Lost Our Democracy and Still Could. The book is billed as an "inside account of American democracy in its darkest hour, from the rise of autocracy unleashed by Trump to the January 6 insurrection." A week after its release, Schiff petitioned the Federal Election Commission to let him rent his donor email list with his publisher to boost book sales. In December 2021, the FEC ruled in his favor. <Source>
Bottom line…
When will someone do a documentary on douchebag Schiff and his sleazy behavior while heading the House Intelligence Committee? Hopefully, the GOP-led Committee will reveal additional evidence of Schiff’s nefarious actions – before the dirtbag mounts his campaign for the Senate.
We are so screwed.
