Kevin McCarthy: Schiff should lose Intelligence Committee role over 'political hack job'
Fox News ^ | 10/04/19 | Victor Garcia

Posted on 10/05/2019 4:17:26 AM PDT by Libloather

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., called for House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., to be removed from his role on the panel after it was revealed Schiff's office had contact with the Trump-Ukraine whistleblower.

"It goes to the fact that his own staff ... and Schiff himself are fact witnesses," McCarthy said on "Hannity." "Nowhere in the American judicial system does it ever allow a fact witness to ever be the prosecutor."

McCarthy added, "He should be removed from the committee. His staff should be removed but now they're trying to control it."

Schiff's office acknowledged Wednesday that the whistleblower had reached out to them before filing a complaint in mid-August. That admission contradicted a previous statement from Schiff, who had said, "We have not spoken directly to the whistleblower."

On Friday, sources told Fox News the whistleblower did not disclose contact with Schiff’s staff to the Intelligence Committee's inspector general (ICIG).

We know for sure if he was a Republican all the libs would insist upon it and it would happen. The Dems don’t have a shred of decency or truth between them.

Kevin McCarthy PELOSI is bulrushing you. Get on television and destroy her. She’s a mafioso boss. Kevin you are a wuss. You can’t go toe to toe with an 80-year-old senile mob boss.

You left out knowingly reading a fabricated transcript as fact during a congressional hearing. Why has this outrages act just been dismissed like it never happened?
