While presenting the Democrats' case for impeachment on the Senate floor, lead impeachment manager Adam Schiff (D-CA) kept referencing 17 witnesses who testified during the House impeachment inquiry. But there were 18 of them. Schiff and the Democrats are refusing to release the testimony of Intelligence Community Inspector General Michael Atkinson, and according to Republicans who were present during Atkinson's closed-door testimony, the reason the transcript hasn't been released is because it proves both the whistleblower and House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff did not tell the truth about their contact with each other.
Fox News' Maria Bartiromo interviewed Rep. John Ratcliffe (R-TX) on "Sunday Morning Futures" about the 18th transcript the Democrats are refusing to release. Rep. Ratcliffe was there for Inspector General Michael Atkinson's testimony and says the transcript is damaging to Chairman Adam Schiff and the whistleblower.
"The House managers kept putting up charts talking about the 17 witnesses," Ratcliffe began. "But there were 18 ... I was there. It's the one transcript out of 18 that hasn't been released. It's a 179-page transcript ... It's the one transcript that talks about Adam Schiff and the whistleblower. Now, everyone knows by now that Adam Schiff was not truthful about his contacts with the whistleblower. What they don't know and what's in that transcript is that the whistleblower wasn't truthful about his contacts with Adam Schiff. This whole thing started, Maria, when the whistleblower filed a complaint with the inspector general under penalty of perjury that wasn't true and correct, made representations in writing and verbally that weren't true and correct. And when we found that out and tried to get into the details of that, Adam Schiff, who was in charge of this investigation, shut it down, and now he's trying to bury that transcript."

Corrupt DNC Managers - Missing 18th Witness
Proof of a concerted effort at a coup.
I believe that the beady-eyed, pencil-necked little pansy bit off more than he could chew, in acting as an impeachment ‘manager’ and presenting all the ‘bravo sierra’ that he did.
When the truth comes out BROADCAST OVER THE MSM, he won’t be able to even run for dog catcher, even in Californication, even AFTER he is released out of the custody of the USBOP, many years from now.
Again, when you go to the head of the stream you realize it is completely polluted.
Start the investigation on lies and then start building a whole edifice of lies on top of that, with the allegation the start of the investigation was truthful.
But don’t show what got it all started.
BTW, I call him ‘a bleary-eyed, pencil-necked little pansy’, with all respect due to him.
Any Dems pressuring for a quick vote now?
The difference is that the press is all in for covering up, not revealing, this time around.
No one is going down. Get used to it.
Despite this thread and several articles, this hasn’t been mentioned by Team Trump. They should not consider any witnesses unless they get this transcript. What are they waiting for? Doesn’t make any sense. An entire presentation about Due Process and not a mention of a witness that is being withheld. Doesn’t pass the smell test.
Adam Schiff should be arrested and executed without a trial, because that’s exactly what he wants for Trump.
how about a tarring with a wire brush to start.
I sure hope you will read the PM I sent a few days ago.
Hey Romney, don’t you want to know what it says too? Or are you sleeze ball traitor we think you are?
BTTT.
