You just knew Schiff was going to jump into the fray.

House Intel Chairman Adam Schiff and House Oversight Chairman Carolyn Maloney asked the Director of National Intelligence’s office to initiate a damage assessment of Trump’s handling of classified documents.

“Former President Trump’s conduct has potentially put our national security at grave risk. This issue demands a full review, in addition to the ongoing law enforcement inquiry,” wrote House Intelligence committee chair Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) and House Oversight committee chair Carolyn Maloney (D-N.Y.) in a three-page letter to Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines. They asked for a classified briefing on the review “as soon as possible.”

Politico reported:

Two top House lawmakers Saturday asked the nation’s intelligence chief to review potential damage to national security stemming from former President Donald Trump’s storage of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago.

The two lawmakers, whose panels have jurisdiction over national security and other oversight matters, specifically asked for the DNI’s office to initiate a damage assessment, which would evaluate any harm to national security related to Trump’s handling of the documents. It comes just a day after an unsealed search warrant revealed the FBI was investigating former President Donald Trump for obstruction of justice and potential violation of the Espionage Act.

Schiff sure knows how to weaponize each and every facet of government, doesn't he?

Imagine, Unconstitutional Democrats usurping the Constitutional power of the Executive Branch when it comes to classifying, and declassifying documents.

Does Schiff have any evidence that any foreign power ever had access to these documents? If not, how could the existence of documents stored in boxes in a room at Mar-a-Lago have caused ANY damage to national security?

If Schiff or anyone else claims that national security was actually harmed - not potentially harmed - it will have to be via some convoluted chain of inferences and assumptions about "loss of confidence" or some such vaguery.

Schiff is going completely batshite crazy.

Schiff, where are all those documents you said you had in the sealed basement hearing rooms of Congress, where no one was allowed to go except Dems and certain commmittee members, documents that you said would show without a doubt President Trump’s collusion with Russia? You never produced or adduced them in the Imnpeachment hearings you helped lead.

And who is even going to listen to you now Schiff, eh?

Oh and Nancy’s son who took a free trip to China and was her escort except he disappeared for a while, no doubt cooking up some China deals for himself and his family.

I wonder how much Hunter breached on national security while he was high on coke and meth and other drugs.

I expect FIBS to raid Trump’s kids next, cease their phones.

Even if Biden did that, he was required to notify Trump that he did so.

Oh that’s right. Trump should bring that whole national security breach up.
