Adam Schiff, The Surprising Face Of The Impeachment Inquiry Of President Trump
New Hampshire Public Radio ^ | October 10, 2019 | Domenico Montanaro

Adam Schiff has been a ubiquitous media presence criticizing President Trump. Trump, an omnivorous television news consumer, has returned the favor, tweeting disparaging comments about (Liddle') Schiff. (and worse.)

But, beyond that, the California Democrat and chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, has had something of an unlikely path to becoming the face of the Democrats' impeachment inquiry and, in turn, the Democratic Resistance.

So here are some things to know:

1. A political career spurred on by... impeachment His congressional district, California's 28th, includes Hollywood. It's heavily liberal — Hillary Clinton won 72% here in 2016. But it wasn't always so pro-Democratic. In fact, Schiff got into Congress, ironically, by defeating a Republican, Jim Rogan, who was a staunch critic of Bill Clinton and spoke out against Clinton during his impeachment.

Schiff was able to leverage Clinton's impeachment for his gain, as Clinton friend and entertainment mogul David Geffen promised to help raise millions to unseat Rogan. He got help from movie director Steven Spielberg and Jeffrey Katzenberg, former chairman of Disney Studios. At the same time, Disney Chairman and CEO Michael Eisner took Rogan's side. The result? The 2000 race became the most expensive in history, at that time, with more than $10 million raised between the two. Schiff won 53%-44%, and has since not gotten less than 63% of the vote.

Big Media upped their lies and began calling this a FORMAL impeachment inquiry a couple days ago.

No surprise he is a Hollywood whore. Those infantile hysteric have always been the loudest voices for impeachment. Like a good little whore, he is doing what his tricks are demanding.

How many people from outside of Schiff’s district are giving him money? Isn’t that a crime? If not, maybe we can make something up and impeach the guy.

"Before running for elective office, Schiff worked in the U.S. attorney's office in Los Angeles in the late 1980s and early 1990s. His most famous case was the first-ever conviction of an FBI agent for espionage. The agent had been taking bribes from Russians. It took three trials over six years to secure the conviction."

"I do feel like in some ways my life has come full circle," Schiff told the Los Angeles Daily News with a laugh last week...."

________________

If his miserable life actually came full circle he would have helped convict FBI slugs Comey and Strzok.

Schiff is human waste.

Biden’s son, and Pelosi’s son were both with no experience or expertise were paid huge amounts of dollars to sit on the boards of Ukrainian energy companies. Schiff himself received funding from the same Ukrainian sources. If Pelosi were to allow a formal impeachment investigation, the Republicans would have subpoena power and would question under oath her son, Schiff himself and Hunter Biden. It should be publicized every way possible just why Pelosi won’t allow a formal inquiry.

His face isn't surprising, it's the face of a creepy child diddler. It's a draw between him and pelousy who is the uglier of the two.

The Schiff-Face I want to see on old googly eyes is how far his eyes would pop out if he were dangling from a rope!

I finally figured out what film character this creep reminded me of: Greg Marmalard from Animal House (the pretty boy president of the elitist Omega House fraternity who turned out to have ED, and then went to work for the Nixon White House and got raped in prison).
