Rep. Adam Schiff’s Congressional Career Aided by Soros-Financed Groups
Breitbart ^ | April 10, 2017 | Aaron Klein

Posted on 01/25/2018 11:55:54 AM PST by COUNTrecount

Rep. Adam Schiff, the ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, was previously financially aided by the George Soros-financed MoveOn.org to win his Congressional seat.

Schiff was also awarded the Toll Fellowship, which is sponsored by the Council of State Governments, a nonprofit that monitors federal government activities and is heavily financed by Soros’s Open Society Foundations.

The Open Society and Soros-funded groups have additionally supported a number of Schiff’s legislative efforts.

Schiff has been helping to lead the Democrats’ unsubstantiated charges of alleged collusion between President Donald Trump and Moscow.

Last month, Schiff delivered the opening statements at a Congressional hearing where he laid out the case for alleged Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election. This reporter previously documented serious problems with Schiff’s charges, which include wild conspiracy theories and heavy reliance on a questionable source.

In largely forgotten history, Schiff’s 2000 Congressional campaign against Republican incumbent Jim Rogan was openly aided by MoveOn.org.

On January 1, 2000, the Wall Street Journal reported on the radical group’s fundraising efforts for Schiff. The Congressional seat was particularly important since Rogan had gained fame after he was selected to be one of thirteen House Managers in the 1998 impeachment case of Bill Clinton. Rogan was supportive of Clinton’s impeachment and became a hero in the Republican Party.

The Journal reported:

If MoveOn were to achieve its ambitious goals, it just might have a big impact on this year’s struggle to control Congress, especially the House. Republicans hold only a slim five-vote majority there, and the outcome will “likely be determined in no more than three dozen congressional districts,” says Thomas Mann, director of governmental studies at the Brookings Institution, a Washington think tank.

This was posted in April, but in light of how Schiff-hole is responding to the memo it is good to see who has funded his political career.

SOROS! ........................................................

And of course, most congressional impeachment proponents were Republicans. One of the most prominent among them, House impeachment manager James Rogan of California, faces a challenge this year from Democratic State Senator Adam Schiff, for whom MoveOn to date has raised $106,000, Mr. Boyd says.

CNN reported on the MoveOn.org money for Schiff’s 2000 campaign: “By 2000, MoveOn.org was raising $2 million for Democratic candidates, including more than $100,000 to help California’s Adam Schiff beat Congressman James Rogan, one of the House managers during Clinton’s impeachment trial.”

Paid for by Soro’s and Pharma, Just look at the cool bill that Shiffty has proposed.

H.Res.327 — 115th Congress (2017-2018)
Introduced in House (05/16/2017)
“Commends the international community, health organizations, the private sector, school and community leaders, and faith-based organizations for bolstering health through vaccination.

Recognizes that the lack of vaccination can cause a public health crisis and that there is no credible evidence that vaccines cause life-threatening or disabling diseases in healthy children or adults.

Encourages a continued commitment to research to improve vaccines and develop new vaccines.

Urges parents to follow the scientific evidence and consensus of medical experts in favor of timely vaccinations to protect their children and their community.”

Except for the credible evidence on the VAERS (Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System) that shows thousands of injuries and deaths following vaccination. https://wonder.cdc.gov/controller/saved/D8/D27F676 Considering that according to the CDC estimates of cases reported to VAERS are between 1 and 10% of the actual events that occur. This link is just for 2016 and for serious events and deaths reported for 2 years old and younger.
