Schiff: Country Continues to Be ‘at Jeopardy’ Without Trump Financial Records
Breitbart - trending ^ | 7-9-2020 | Pam Key

Thursday on MSNBC’s “The Last Word,” House Intelligence Committee chairman Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) said if Congress was delayed in receiving the financial records of President Donald Trump because of court battles, “the country continues to be at jeopardy during that delay.”

In a clip reacting to today’s Supreme Court decisions, Attorney General William Barr said, “Well, obviously, we were disappointed in the decision to the extent it did not accept our argument, the government’s argument, about the extent of the president’s immunity. But as a practical matter, the decision made very clear that the president just is not at the mercy of litigants and investigators and that there are protections and defenses that can be raised.”

O’Donnell said, “Your reaction to that, Mr. Chairman?”

Schiff said, “Well, I’m not surprised that Barr finds it a bitter pill to swallow that the president is not above the law. He takes the legal view that essentially the president can’t violate the law because he is the law, and Bill Barr is essentially the hand of the president to implement his will. It’s why the Justice Department under Barr doesn’t represent justice. It doesn’t represent the public interest. It is essentially like a second defense attorney and defense counsel for the president.

My post was just a joke, but I did forget about Spacey and had not heard that about Schiff.

Think of how much better off the nation would be if Schiff was successful writing screen plays (like he's says he wants to) dying a long painful and agonizing death, instead of bringing new lows to Congress.

There, fixed that for you.

Here’s another tidbit....TWO famed political talk show hosts carried on the other day that they had been leaked some of the people in Epstein’s videos.

The talk show pundits were, are ya ready? Rush Limbaugh and Don Borgino. They both said they would tell us when they could but they had to keep quiet about it.

I’m sure there are other listeners of each (I heard both of them carry on about their secret on the same day) that heard this.

Of course, please, know that neither of them said Schiff’s name. I also heard Tom Hanks was another name.

But the way both Rush and Borgino carried on with glee over their secret name, and after I read Schiff’s name somewhere, well that would be a name that would delight a conservative political pundit.

Just me gossiping. Take me with a couple grains of salt.

The country is actually in jeopardy without the financial records of Paul Pelosi and Hunter Biden, the financial records of the Vindman brothers, the official records of Groping Joe Biden at the University of Delaware, as well as the actual birth records and Harvard University records of Barack Hussein Obama.

If I were Trump, and knowing I did nothing wrong, I would release my tax returns for the last 10 years.

I would release ONE (1) copy of my returns, only in print form, printed out on a laser printer with a defective drum. And all stacked on large tables behind him.

I imagine the forms would probably fill a medium-size U-Haul. Then let’em have at it.

I can just see ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, CNBC, and even FOX up at the tables all fighting over the printouts.

Congratulations to Adam Schiff for making it onto my list of “Top 100 People I Would Most Like To See Run Over Repeatedly With A Garbage Truck”.

I suspect Schiff is the one whose financial records should be look into.
Or, make that his whole existence should be looked into with a fine toothed comb.

You know, if it ever does really come out, I bet there will be God knows how many entertainers, a boatload of Dems, a few RINOs, and no true conservatives.
