U.S. House Rep Adam Schiff (D-CA) was asked in a recent interview why shouldn’t Republicans be able to kick him off committees when they take the majority in January.
“Well, this is the same false equivalence they often use, which is, Marjorie Taylor Greene and Paul Gosar were removed from their committees because they were inciting violence and fellow members of Congress,” Schiff smugly explained.
Schiff continued, “The day I start to incite violence against people I serve with or elsewhere, then fine, take me off my committee.”
“The moment I start engaging in insurrection, then fine, sanction me but don’t give me this false equivalence Mr. McCarthy and suggest that somehow leading legitimate investigations of Donald Trump’s corruption with Russia, Ukraine, and January 6 is somehow a legitimate basis to remove someone from their committee,” Schiff concluded.
In response to Schiff’s claims, Greene fired back, “You deserve to be kicked off committees for lying to the American people and supporting BLM violent riots all over America @RepAdamSchiff along w/ many of your colleagues. I’m looking forward to watching @GOPLeader remove you from committees.”

Schiff was also asked in the interview about the possibility of him running for Senate in 2024, given that U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) might be retiring.
“Look, I am getting a lot of encouragement to run for the Senate from people in California and colleagues here in Congress,” Schiff insisted.
Schiff said that “If Senator Feinstein retires, then I will give it very serious consideration. It’s a great responsibility, and in terms of continuing the work I’ve been doing to protect our democracy and fight for an economy that works for everyone, that would also give me a chance to try to meet those objectives for all Californians.”
“But, you know, at this point, I think we’re waiting to see what Senator Feinstein has to say about her plans, but, yes, it is something I’m giving serious consideration to…” Schiff added.

Previously, we reported that House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) pledged to remove Schiff, Eric Swalwell (D-CA), and Ilhan Omar (D-MN) from committees if he became Speaker.

Schiff has go be one of the most nauseating beings. Absolutely disgusting human.
He is the poster child for not allowing lying on the floor any longer. When they lie they, it should be bye.

He is a threat to our constitution… I believe the word is ‘traitor’. I have a rope.
Schiff deserves to spend the rest of his life in an orange jumpsuit and leg irons in an open air cell at Club Gitmo. He’s one of the domestic enemies that isn’t explicitly named who many of us swear an oath to defend the Constitution against.
I don’t believe any of them except for the one like MTG and a small handfull of actual patriots. The rest of them should be in jail for oh, so many reasons.
It’s not just committees that Schiff should be removed from.
I don’t think there is a bigger POS in this whole world. Congrats Adam – you are number one.
Every time a marxist leftist uses the word “democracy”, substitute it with the word “power”.
Examples;
“I might run for the senate to protect our power”.
“Get the vote out to protect power”.
“Our power is at stake.”
“Power is hanging by a thread”.
That piece of excrement should not be placed on any committee, now that we control the House. In fact, put Conservatives on all those committees and take out any who even have close ties to the DemonRats, you know like those sick POS Rinos.
MAGA makes up the majority of the Republican voting base. If a MAGA politician isn’t chosen we still will noy have a voice. NO UNIPARTY CANDIDATE!!
WHY hasn’t the dishonest, immoral, LIAR Democrat Schiff been EXPELLED from Congress for his constant lying? This fool definitely has a serious mental problem.
