Trump Is Right. Adam Schiff Has Not Paid For Damaging The Country With Years Of Lies
Schiff was not telling the truth when he kept dripping out lies to compliant reporters. Because he helped them accomplish their political goals against their nemesis Trump, however, they have not held him accountable.By Mollie Hemingway, The Federalist, January 27, 2020
When President Trump tweeted on Sunday that Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., was a “CORRUPT POLITICIAN” who “has not paid the price, yet, for what he has done to our Country!” the media and Democrats loudly protested, as they do, that this was a threat.
“Schiff ‘has not paid the price’ for impeachment, Trump says in what appears to be veiled threat,” said a Washington Post headline. “Schiff, Calling Trump ‘Wrathful and Vindictive,’ Sees Tweet as a Threat” The New York Times headlined. “Trump makes ‘threat’ against Rep. Adam Schiff,” was the New York Daily News headline. “Adam Schiff: Trump Saying I Should Pay a Price Is ‘Intended to Be’ a Threat,” headlined The Daily Beast. “Trump tweet was ‘threat’ against Adam Schiff, Democrats say,” went the story in USA Today.
What a ludicrous spin that Democrats and the media pushed in lockstep. When Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi said Republicans would “pay a price” for not acquiescing to her demands regarding a Senate impeachment trial, none of these reporters or outlets claimed she was threatening them.
What price, political or otherwise, has Schiff paid for falsely claiming for years that he had evidence that Trump was a traitor who had colluded with Russia to steal the 2016 election? Schiff had hundreds of television, radio, and public appearances during the Russia collusion hoax, during which time he used his status as the ranking member on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence to lie to Americans about whether the Russia collusion story was true.
Day after day, week after week, month after month, he fed information to a compliant media about how this collusion was real. When Robert Mueller ended his expansive, multi-year investigation into the question, he didn’t find a single American who had colluded with Russia, not to mention a single Trump campaign affiliate, not to mention Trump. Schiff never apologized for his lies. Here’s an example of one of his false statements, lapped up by Chuck Todd.
The insane conspiracy theory that Trump won the 2016 election, not by appealing to voters, or running against a deeply troubled favorite of the elites, or by visiting Michigan and Wisconsin, but because he was part of a decades-long plot to work with Russia to steal the election deeply damaged the country. It harmed relations with other countries, it terrified qualified individuals away from serving in agencies, it polarized the country, it fed the delusions of emotionally troubled people.
And it was not true. Schiff was not telling the truth when he kept dripping out this theory to compliant reporters. Because he helped them accomplish their political goals against their nemesis Trump, however, they have not held him accountable.
What price did Adam Schiff pay for falsely telling the country that the process used to secure warrants to spy on Americans was beyond reproach? When committee chairman Rep. Devin Nunes tried to find out answers about how the Obama administration spied on the Trump campaign, Schiff fought him every step of the way.
When, against all odds, Nunes was able to put out a now completely vindicated report on abuses in the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) processes used by the Department of Justice, Schiff, who had access to the same information, ran to the cameras to denounce Nunes and defend the process. The media ran story after story aping Schiff’s messaging against Nunes and praising and accepting whole Schiff’s response memo.
Now that the inspector general put out a report detailing 17 major flaws with how the DOJ went about securing warrants to spy on a Trump campaign affiliate, Schiff has not been held accountable for his lies.
What price did Schiff pay for lying to the media about whether he and his staff had worked with the whistleblower that was deployed to launch impeachment proceedings? When asked if they’d had any contact with him, he said they had not.
That turned out to be a lie. His staff had coordinated and even provided guidance to the whistleblower before he lodged his complaint. Members of his staff appear to have been quite close to him, in fact. He admitted he lied, but how has Schiff been held accountable for this?
What price did Schiff pay for misrepresenting evidence regarding Lev Parnas, someone he claims he must have testify before the Senate even though he also claims his case against Trump is airtight? Politico reported that he was misrepresenting evidence to make something seem more dramatic than it was. It was a barely noticed story. How has Schiff been held accountable for this?
Instead, the leftist hordes at CNN and MSNBC praised him sycophantically. And even the folks who like to present themselves as reporters also praise him.
Adam Schiff might be the most underestimated politician California has produced. Many in GOP dismiss him as bland/partisan. But the way he has handled impeachment will leave a mark on history, exceeding nearly all contemporaries.

Chances are incredibly high that Schiff personally lied to this national security reporter, who wrote a non-critical book on the Russia collusion conspiracy theory. Yet even he will not hold Schiff accountable.

So no, media, noticing that Schiff has been rewarded for his lies instead of held accountable for them is not a threat. And to say it’s a threat only shows how the media are working far more as partisan activists than purveyors of news.

‘Polarized and deeply damaged the country’.
Sadly, how true. I no longer trust or will even listen to any newspaper or Democrat. I consider them all enemies within, of the state, and I once swore an oath to defend the Constitution from those.
There is going to be a civil war if the left does not stand down. In any event it will be decades before this country.heals. The growing schism is getting greater than our last civil war, if anything.

Careful with the RINOS too.
Expect more to retire.
When they retire they get to keep any donations of funding for a re-election. They should require this money to be put back into the DEM or GOP pot.

I didn’t know this till shifty Schiff came along but on the floor of Congress he can say ANYTHING and be immune from prosectution. On the floor he has complete immunity. Elsewhere he doesn’t and like Ms. Geller pointed out, he gets away with it.
WHERE IS THE GOP ON THIS?
Rafeal er Ted, IS THAT OKAY WITH YOU?
I’ve been told Ted you are a “patriot” and a “legal beagle”.
How come you are for more witness for this sham of an impeachment?
Being open minded to Mitt Romney, Lisa Murkowski, and Susan Collins is not a good look for you. You need to keep em fooled, Ted.
Have you backed off as it is more obvious to what is going on?

In case he does get ordered to pay for his damage he can always plead not guilty for reasons of insanity. Looking at his picture above he would certainly get away with that.

When politicians, corporate leaders, judges, cops, terrorists, criminals, etc., no longer fear the law is it time they learn to fear the people?

Schiff will be known in history as the biggest and worse liar Congress has ever known in his attempt to bring down a duly elected President with false articles of impeachments charges. Pelosi will be known in history as the first House Leader who supported the lies in the House’s attempt to bring down a duly elected President with false articles of impeachments charges.

Leaving this to voters is wrong. He needs to be prosecuted along with Biden for corruption and all the coup conspirators.

Fact-checking sites almost never fact-check Adam Schiff.
Snopes, Politi-fact, and the rest are more focused on fact-checking republicans than they are Democrats. and yes, they almost never fact-check Adam “believe me cause I’m a fellow democrat” Schiff.

What is SEDITION? It’s time to arrest this parasite.
An insurrectionary movement tending towards treason, but wanting an overt act; attempts made by meetings or speeches, or by publications, to disturb the tranquility of the state. The distinction between “sedition” and “treason” consists in this: that though the ultimate object of sedition is a violation of the public peace, or at least such a course of measures as evidently engenders it.
Officials were convinced that allowing people to be openly critical of the government would lead to violence and pose a risk to the existence of the United States. Seditious conduct and speech could subject a person to a criminal conviction and imprisonment.

???????? What price – political or otherwise – might the meretricious enemedia be compelled to pay for their relentless and coordinated lying and complicity in any and all of their own, sickening efforts to help try and discredit, damage, demonise and destroy Trump’s Presidency?
And when?
I assure international readers, that the situation is very much the same as regards about 95% of the MSM in Australia: that’s right, its non stop, all of the fake news down under – their favourite fetish being maligning Donald Trump, 24/7. We’re every bit as disgusted by all this as you are.
