Adam Schiff deems Matt Whitaker a 'flawed appointment'
The Washington Times ^ | November 18, 2018 | Tom Howell Jr.

Rep. Adam Schiff of California on Sunday said Democrats will be keeping a close eye on acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker, deeming him a “flawed appointment” who cannot be trusted to guide the Russia investigation.

Mr. Schiff, who is poised to become chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, said his panel will root out and expose any efforts Mr. Whitaker takes to curb special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe into potential interference in the 2016 election. The acting attorney general has criticized the scope of the investigation in the past.

Mr. Schiff also said Mr. Trump’s decision to tap Mr. Whitaker is unconstitutional — the lawyer hasn’t been confirmed by the Senate — and goes around the succession statute that guides the Justice Department.

He is worried about his own ass as he was a chief leaker.

If I deemed Adam Schiff what I’m thinking of deeming him, I’d be banned from FR.

For two lifetimes.

He has upped it to treason and sedition with the recent election. He is in bigger trouble than what he was before.

He’s like the latest version of that ugly, filthy Henry Waxman that California gifted us with.

Latest from Trump =>

@realDonaldTrump

So funny to see little Adam Schitt (D-CA) talking about the fact that Acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker was not approved by the Senate, but not mentioning the fact that Bob Mueller (who is highly conflicted) was not approved by the Senate!

Like all of us conservatives you just have one vote, unlike many RATs and their leftist organizations.

I know how you feel, it’s frustrating. :^)

Damned right I am! Massachusetts has been a Liberal $hithole for my entire life. I grew up here in CA in the 1950s and 60’s and there were no liberals here then except for the a$$hole professors at UC Berkeley who had been there since the 1930’s. Both San Francisco and Oakland had Republican mayors. The Dreadlocks contingent in MA have run the place with the help of the Irish for over 100 years! And FWIW my wife is Irish, and her family wouldn't stoop to pi$$ on the Irish in MA.

“Massachusetts never has earthquakes...”
_________________________________________

Ironically, today is the anniversary of an earthquake that occurred off the coast of Cape Ann, Massachusetts on November 18, 1755. That earthquake damaged hundreds of buildings in Boston. It was believed to be between 6.0 and 6.3 on the Richter scale. Imagine the havoc it would have created had it occurred today instead of in 1755.

I also remember when the FEMA director who served in the Reagan Administration made the comment “Boston has the same earthquake risk as Los Angeles.”

While earthquakes in the Boston area are not outside the realm of possibilities, I had a raised eyebrow when I heard that comment. And, I was living in California at the time.

There is absolutely nothing Schiff can do about it, so let him waste his time.

Someone should remind Representative Schiff that only Senators get to vote on whether or not (assuming President Trump nominates Matt Whitaker to become the next Attorney General) to confirm Whitaker as such. What Mr. Schiff needs is a large cup of STFU.
