OPINION: ‘Principled’ Adam Schiff Says He Doesn’t Think Impeachment Helped Trump, But he Doesn’t Care if it Did

OPINION:

We couldn’t fit him into the title, but Hollywood actor James Woods, who’s recently come back to Twitter after a long hiatus in protest of social media censorship, posted a video clip of Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) with some entertaining (depending on if you like him) commentary. On the Schiff clip that was actually posted by Adam Schiff himself, Woods caption read: “This political spirochete literally accusing the majority of the United States Senate of malfeasance is rich. #AdamSchiff is living proof you can actually turn “hello” into a bald-faced lie.”

The video was posted by Rep. Schiff himself, speaking about the impeachment, now that President Trump has been acquitted by the U.S. Senate. A reporter speaking to Rep. Schiff appears to grill him on whether or not he regrets pushing so hard for impeachment and removal, saying in part: “he’s been acquitted, he’s admitted no wrongdoing, his fundraising is up, his poll numbers are up, is it possible that impeachment actually made it more likely that he will not only be president for the rest of this year but for the next four years?”

Well Adam Schiff, being the principled and constitutionally honorable man that he is, is not worried about the political ramifications either way according to him, although he doesn’t “think” that impeachment helped him, despite the reasons given by the reporter. Watch the clip for yourself below:

Well if that’s not enough entertainment for you today, Judicial Watch announced this morning they are filing a lawsuit against principled Adam Schiff and the House Intel Committee for the “controversial subpoenas issues for phone records, including those of Rudy Giuliani, President Trump’s lawyer”. It will be interesting to see how this plays out. See Tom Fitton’s latest in the Judicial Watch tweet below:

Fueling Schiff’s bad news lately, the House Intelligence Committee Chairman was on MSNBC a few days ago as well, speaking about John Bolton, former National Security Advisor. Bolton, recently fired by President Trump, was going to testify in the U.S. Senate regarding information in his new book that the Democrats had believed was going to help their case.

The witness requests for the U.S. Senate trial were kiboshed by Majority Leader Mitch McConnel (R-KY) and most other Republicans though, a blow to the Democrats, despite President Trump saying he was ok with witnesses. In this clip, Schiff complains that Bolton no longer wants to go under oath for the Democrats outside of the Senate trial, and implies that Bolton was only ever out to sell his book.

Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) had mentioned possibly sending a subpoena, but here Schiff says no decision has been made. Adam Schiff does say ominously that Bolton will have to “answer for that” in regards to not wanting to go under oath, whatever that means exactly is tough to say. See the video below:
