Rep. Schiff's Anti-Trump Crusade Backfires, Report Says His Staff Knew of Russian Bounty Plan Months Ago....

A new report raises serious questions regarding what House Intelligence Committee Chairman Rep. Adam Schiff knew about bounties allegedly paid by Russia to Taliban-linked terrorists for killing American soldiers, and when he knew it.

Sources told the outlet that top committee staff for Schiff were briefed all the way back in February on intelligence about a Russian military intelligence unit covertly offering the bounties to militants. But the California Democrat “took no action in response,” the outlet reported, citing those sources.

What has surfaced is an allegation that Schiff did exactly what he is accusing Trump of doing right now — learning about a reported Russian plan to kill Americans and doing nothing about it.

This is just another notch in the belt of Schiff’s lengthy history of letting his hatred for Trump be the only factor guiding his decisions.

If The Federalist’s report is true,(according to this article) and his staff was indeed briefed on the matter last winter, then why did Schiff not disclose the information to Congress or conduct hearings?

Sure. So now everyone who reads FR and the Western Journal is aware of this.

I won’t hold my breath on the MSM running with it.

I guess it wouldn’t be surprising if Schiff’s the leaker....Pelosi has him do the leaks so her nose stays clean.

To the writer of this article Just how has it backfired? He will get away with it. The media won't report it.Nothing will be done. A few repugs might write a stern letter of disapproval.

There is no such thing as an Afgani. Just people in tribes living in an area called Afghanistan. They are constantly killing each other and the idea that you’d have to pay them to kill Americans is kinda dumb. Not that wouldn’t do it for a few bucks. And why wouldn’t our enemy Russia do that?

.

Isnt the whole point of an legislative intelligence comotte is to have oversite ?

Well why didn’t they bring THIS thing to the publics attention if they thought Trump supposedly wasn’t handling it Right ?

If its such a big thing ? If it is even real.

No, this is a case of something that very well isn’t true, but can NOW be bent any which way the leftist biased mainstream media now is closer to the election.

COLLUSION WITH PUTIN SCHIFF ??? YOU ??? THE OTHER DEMS ON THAT COMITTEE ???

Time to RESIGN Schiff for YOUR negligence/treason - if it is such a big thing.

......”To the writer of this article Just how has it backfired?”......

Well it certainly reveals yet again what Schiffs up to and the corrupt individual he is.......I see Schiff as Pelosi’s/Sulmer’s blowhorn and hatchet-man so their noses don’t get bloodied while they work their senister plans further with the former Obama teams to destroy Trump.

It’s not about what did or not happen with the Afgani’s.......it’s about the narrative the Dems want to create that Trumps incompetent, in bed with russia and feed this until the election is past. It’s to be just one of the wedges they’re working at between the voters and Trump.

Obviously the Legislative Intelligence Committee (Schiff/Nader) and is a weaponized entity to work against Trump 24/7.
