President Trump called for House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff to resign after the California Democrat read a parody of the president’s phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky during a hearing on a whistleblower complaint about the conversation.
“Rep. Adam Schiff fraudulently read to Congress, with millions of people watching, a version of my conversation with the President of Ukraine that doesn’t exist. He was supposedly reading the exact transcribed version of the call, but he completely changed the words to make it sound horrible, and me sound guilty,” Trump tweeted Friday.
“Adam Schiff therefore lied to Congress and attempted to defraud the American Public. He has been doing this for two years. I am calling for him to immediately resign from Congress based on this fraud!” Trump said.
...sound horrible, and me sound guilty. HE WAS DESPERATE AND HE GOT CAUGHT. Adam Schiff therefore lied to Congress and attempted to defraud the American Public. He has been doing this for two years. I am calling for him to immediately resign from Congress based on this fraud! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 27, 2019
Trump later demanded an investigation into Schiff: "He is a sick man!"
Rep. Adam Schiff totally made up my conversation with Ukraine President and read it to Congress and Millions. He must resign and be investigated. He has been doing this for two years. He is a sick man! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 27, 2019
Republicans tore into Schiff on Thursday for reading an altered version of Trump’s call with Zelensky during a hearing with acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire.
During the hearing, Schiff, while appearing to read from a piece of paper, gave what was plainly summarizing how he characterized Trump's call. “I have a favor I want from you,” Schiff said “And I’m going to say this only seven times, so you better listen good. I want you to make up dirt on my political opponent, understand? Lots of it, on this and on that.”
After some Trump defenders attacked him for "making up" quotations, Schiff responded: “My summary of the president’s call was meant to be at least partly parody. The fact that that’s not clear is a separate problem in and of itself. Of course, the president never said, ‘If you don’t understand me I’m going to say it seven more times.’ My point is, that’s the message that the Ukraine president was receiving in not so many words."
Expose everything about him and then arrest him.
Trump has to do this because if he doesn’t, a lot of people will just go forward thinking what Schiff said really was in the transcript.
Trump knows what he’s doing here, and the democrats simply can’t win against someone who knows he is right and is ready for the fight.
He is consumed by hate. Spent too much time with Ed Buck. He’s a total whack-job, and fits in well with the senior ranks of the Democrat Party in Washington.
Where in the he!! is that worthless Bill Barr. Swamp rat under cover at JD, scared to do his job.
“IT WAS A PERFECT CONVERSATION WITH UKRAINE PRESIDENT!”— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 27, 2019
Bug-eyed pencil neck.
Bug Eyes Schiff is a creepy looking guy. He is so nauseating that he makes a useful foil for Trump.
Schiff reminds me of a kid who used to call people names then run home as we’d chase him. He was fast, and always got in his front door before we could catch him.
One day the door was locked.
He’s the PeeWee Herman of the House.
Article I, Section 6 of the Constitution provides, in part: “They shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace, be privileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place.”

Sorry but Congress members are pretty much immune to any punishment (other than what Congress may apply).
It is perfectly legal for a Congress member to lie and only Congress can decide if they would punish a member or not.
If a Republican had done this, they would have had
Him arrested!! BUT. A Republican would NEVER do IT!
Where in the hell is Nancy Pelosi? She is offering prayers for the President, (which is a joke) yet, she allows a dangerous and diabolical lie to remain on the Floor and in the record. This man needs to at a minimum be censored.
Schiff SHOULD resign. Seriously.
What Schiff is doing IS TREASON AND SEDITION under the guise of Congressional oversight. Therefore he is not immune!! We can kill the SOB!
Shouldn’t the House Republican Leadership be raising holy hell about the stunt Schiff pulled yesterday?? How about getting at least a resolution of censure on record even if it doesn’t pass? I’ve heard audio bites on the radio that make it sound like that’s what PDJT actually said.

“He is consumed by hate.”
Hannity, Trump practically everyone repeats that.
I respectfully disagree.
Schiff and the rest are consumed by fear.
Fear of Trump exposing their corruption, federal crimes, sex with minors; real legal jeopardy.
Fear of losing their corrupt revenue streams, including those from globalist who they’ve promised to destroy America from within for.
Fear of losing the power to protect and propagate their global criminal enterprises.
They are all trying their best to protect each other from federal prison.
We need to bring back the gallows.
They fear that to.
They are admitting their crimes when they project them on President Trump.
Schiff did that perfectly with his “parody”. He perfectly described what Biden actually did and admitted too.
I humbly submit they are consumed by fear.
They are watching McCabe closely.
You are 100% right on and these evil SOBs need to be stripped of their rights and then exterminated.
Schiff gets away with reading an entire work of fiction for nefarious purposes. Wilson was ruined by saying two words, “You lie!”, and he was telling the truth. Nothing makes sense.
What Schiff is doing IS TREASON AND SEDITION under the guise of Congressional oversight. Therefore he is not immune!! We can kill the SOB!

That may be your belief but making a case for Treason is very difficult. So don’t get your hopes up for that to happen.
We all need to calm down, and step back and look at the big picture.
The Democrats have had a “free” ride for close to 60 years. They have been using the same tactics all this time. It always worked. Until Donald Trump came along. If you have noticed, nothing they do is working for them.
That is the reason they are in a panic.
They were convinced that they could manufacturer a case against President Trump and have him out of office before he got comfortable in the Oval Office.
Now going into the 2020 election with the economy in good shape, the border wall being built, trade agreements being rewritten and many hot spots cooling down.
This latest attempt is a massive failure. It was so obvious of a fake that even they don’t believe it (which is why Schiff’s lies).
We are winning the war, we don’t need to get side tracked at this time.
