Having managed to secure at least a partial transcript of a call between President Trump and Ukranian President Volodymyr Zelensky, Intelligence Committee Chair Adam Schiff seems to think he’s on a roll. After learning that the White House had been keeping records of the President’s various phone calls with other world leaders under tight security, Schiff is now thinking about demanding some more of them as part of the ongoing impeachment hearings. What’s not been made clear is the reason he might offer for the request, or what he suspects he will find. (Reuters)
The chairman of the U.S. House Intelligence Committee said on Sunday Congress is determined to get access to President Donald Trump’s calls with Russian President Vladimir Putin and other world leaders, citing concerns he may have jeopardized national security.
“I think the paramount need here is to protect the national security of the United States and see whether in the conversations with other world leaders and in particular with Putin that the president was also undermining our security in a way that he thought would personally benefit his campaign,” Democrat Adam Schiff said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

Uh, no.
Get a warrant. State the crime. State precisely what you expect to find.
“I want to find stuff because I hate him” is insufficient.
POUND SAND SHITT
Pencil necked piece of offal.
Yep. Fishing expedition.
Trump has indicated that he will have Schiff arrested and put on trial for treason.
That will happen within the next day or two.
Release to pencil neck ONLY phone conversations of nobama and world leaders.
Schiff is nuts....His little parody says so.
He also wants all the soup the Russians were spotted in.
All contacts between Ed Buck and Schiff...
NSA has EVERY phone call made every day everywhere in the world. Trump should order NSA to release every call by Pencilneck, Pelosi, FatNads, in fact, ALL democrats.
Seems to me we should have transcripts of Schiff’s communications with foreigners as well.
No chance in hell.
Yes, but more importantly an attempt to run out the clock. Regardless of what happens with the current "impeachment" and the 2020 election, in February 2025, Donald J Trump will NOT be President of the United States. The various species of swamp-rats currently infesting Washington City plan to keep him tied up with BS investigations until then.
Trump needs the NSA to reveal Shifty’s emails, texts, and voice calls.
What did Obama promise other leaders?
Did Obama ever threaten to withhold financial or military aid to any leader who didn't give him what he wanted?
Schiff is a national security threat.
I predict a big, fat “no” on that request.
This is not only an attempt to take down the President, it is a attempt to destroy the Presidency in general. I believe they know that they will likely not win back the White House in the foreseeable future, they want to destroy it altogether.
