On Tuesday, Republican Representative Elise Stefanik demanded that far-left Rep. Adam Schiff testify under oath about his relations to the anti-Trump whistleblower who is responsible for the beginning of the impeachment inquiry.
“The whistleblower should answer questions under oath. But more importantly, Adam Schiff needs to answer questions under oath,” Stefanik said during an interview with “Fox & Friends.” “I was the first member of Congress to ask when did Adam Schiff have access to the whistleblower.”
“We know now that that was before the whistleblower submitted his complaint to the inspector general,” she added. “So there are a lot of serious questions about the coordination between the whistleblower and Chairman Schiff.”
“This has been a partisan process from the start. Adam Schiff has conducted himself as counsel to the witnesses, as judge and jury and the American people deserve transparency,” she added. “These should have been open, bipartisan hearings from the start. Again, throughout this process, we have seen partisan cherry picking leaking coming from the Democratic side and it’s unfair to the American people.”
“Impeachment is more than a political buzz word,” Stefanik stated. “This is serious constitutional process and the American people deserve access to 100 percent. They should be open hearings and the media deserves access.”

Adam Schiff will deny!
I am guessing that a Congressman lying to a Senate Inquiry under oath has about the same penalty as an FBI director lying to congress under oath?

Demand in one hand, schiff in the other. See what happens.
Schiff will have no hesitation to lying under oath. What’s he got to lose?
No one will ever prosecute him.
I used to think that going before congress or one of these oversight committees was the ultimate in screwing up. It meant you were just going away to reside in some box for a few years. Now, its a laughable. I makes no sense for this type of engagement unless there is real consequences. There clearly is not.
Thanks for posting. HOORAY Elise! Punchable Clown Face under oath? Let’s get our offense on the field.
Wow, she's finally standing up for Trump, this could be a first for her. Credit where credit is due - good job.
Okay, back to reality. :(
Stefanic is one of us?
Who is she - anybody know more? I’ll go look her up otherwise, but sometimes Freepers know more.
I was thinking about Schiff when I made that comment. I replied to the wrong post.
There is power in numbers. ALL Republicans should DEMAND that Schiff for brains complies.
Issue him a subpoena
Good luck with that.
All inquisition subpoenas go through Schift.
Nice but one Congressman saying something reasonable is not “HUGE”
“HUGE” would be if a Senate committee actually subpoenaed Schiff to testify.
Upstate New York Republican, youngest to be elected at the time. Typically has been standoffish of Trump, I think she declined having him campaign with her or something. Our GOP Congressmen have been rather skittish in NY and many who ran from Trump, like John Faso, lost.
That's probably the point she is trying to make, but the dumb partisan media won't grasp it, or certainly won't report that angle.
