House Intelligence Chair Rep. Adam Schiff says he wasn't told about al-Baghdadi operation

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and House Intelligence Committee Chairman Rep. Adam Schiff were not informed in advance of the U.S. special operations forces raid in northwestern Syria in which ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi died, Schiff said on ABC’s "This Week"

"My understanding [Pelosi] wasn’t [told]. But a couple of things, first of all, good riddance. [Al-Baghdadi] was a blood thirsty killer to the degree that he retained operational control of ISIS, Schiff said. "This is an operational success, this is a symbolic victory. He had the blood of thousands and thousands of people on his hands, including many Americans and American journalists. So, this a great day, a ruthless killer has been brought to Justice. "

Schiff appeared on "This Week" moments after President Donald Trump announced the raid in northwestern Syria on Saturday.

"Last night the United States brought the world’s number one terrorist leader to justice. Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is dead," the president said in remarks Sunday morning.

> They would have likely flown over and thrown themselves on top of the guy if the President had given them heads up.

So... You’re saying he should have told them?

Many American Special Forces lives were saved by keeping ISIS Adam and San Fran Nan in the dark.

We can thank PG&E for Pelosi at least...

During World War II if any member of Congress leaked the news of a covert operation - would that person have been charged?

The asshole would have called it off. The Dems & RINOs need these foreign conflicts to keep their M-I Complex masters sending those big bucks!

Probably would have asked that the flags be flown at half staff.

Since when does he have a right to know about the operations of the CIC BEFORE it occurs.

Terrific idea. The clown Schiff fell for a “kompromat” prank from Russkie comedians.

Hey Schifty, how the heck were we to reach you? You have yourself all sealed up in that impenetrable impeachment bunker you created you ‘prepper’.

You need to get out more.

Schiff would have tipped off ISIS for fear of more good news for the president. There is absolutely no doubt of this.
