The chairman of the House Intel committee, who is leading the impeachment inquiry, couldn't be more different than his prey.
No one understands the political perils of impeaching a president quite like Rep. Adam Schiff.
In 2000, he won a House seat centered in the north Los Angeles suburbs of Burbank, Glendale and Pasadena by defeating Republican incumbent James Rogan, a colorful and camera-loving former prosecutor who had become nationally prominent as a House manager of President Bill Clinton's impeachment.
While Schiff concentrated on district-specific issues, Rogan's high profile in going after Clinton made it easier to portray him as neglectful of his constituents' priorities, and it turned the contest into such a touchstone that donors from across the country poured record sums into the candidates' coffers. As a result, Schiff was able to subtly take advantage of voters' distaste for the Clinton impeachment without the risk inherent in making it the focus of his campaign.
"Rogan never really was able to escape any of that," said Bill Carrick, a consultant who was tapped by national Democrats to guide soft-money spending in western states that year. "He was sort of trapped in that impeachment thing. And Adam ran a good campaign."

That's right. He lies at the drop of a hat.
He colludes with what he thought were Ukrainians.
He's funded by MoveOn.org
He keeps moving the goalposts of whatever he's investigating - changing the charges to keep up with the times.
Oh, he's the complete opposite of Trump alright.
NBC portrays Schiff as if he is something other than a corrupt unbalanced loon. It’s gaslighting. We know he’s a nutcase. He’s also dishonest and corrupt.
I wouldn’t let that POS even give me something for free.
ALL DEMOCRATS ARE VILE, EVIL, VICIOUS, LYING DESTROYERS of GOOD PEOPLE!
In 2020, he won a House seat centered in the north Los Angeles suburbs of Burbank, Glendale and Pasadena by defeating Democrat incumbent Adam Schiff, a colorful and camera-loving former prosecutor who had become nationally prominent as a House manager of President Donald Trump's impeachment.

Schiffstain wasn’t fit to hold Jim Rogan’s jock strap. One of the best California Congressmembers in the past 50 years.
List:
* Demon possessed
Democrats: Well, that’s good enough for me.
Schiff is a CIA agent. As in, a current CIA agent.
NBC (Never Berate Clinton) has their kneepads on again, this time for Adam Schiff.
Schitt visited Buck several times at his sex den home, look at the shirt and wrist ban he is wearing, schitt is dirty and needs to be investigated, a vile human being
How do we KNOW that Shifty visited Buck’s SEX/DRUGS DEN??
I get it. He is a sneaky little Schiff.
A Soros puppet?
How many of the Ukrainian backed by Biden are funded by Soros?
How many of the Ukrainians now working with Trump to clean up the corruption in Ukraine are targeting Soros ?
Best nickname I’ve read. “Adumb Schitt”!
And what exactly does it say about his constituents that voted for him?
We at the DIA despised the CIA.
Schiff is going to end up dogmeat when all is said and done.
