Schiff says committees will make impeachment inquiry transcripts public when it would not 'jeopardize investigative equities'
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) said in a letter Wednesday that interview transcripts from closed-door impeachment inquiry depositions will be made public when they do not "jeopardize investigative equities."
The Dear Colleague letter is designed to counter arguments from Republicans in both the White House and Congress that Democrats are conducting an invalid investigation, since their witness interviews are being held behind closed doors, outside the eyes of the public and lawmakers who don't sit on the three committees leading the investigations.
"At a time that it will not jeopardize investigative equities, we will make the interview transcripts public, subject to any necessary redactions for classified or sensitive information," Schiff wrote.
"We also anticipate that at an appropriate point in the investigation, we will be taking witness testimony in public, so that the full Congress and the American people can hear their testimony firsthand," he added.

"It is of paramount importance to ensure that witnesses cannot coordinate their testimony with one another to match their description of events, or potentially conceal the truth," he wrote. "I am particularly sensitive to that issue given that during the Intelligence Committee’s investigation into Russia’s election interference, one witness, Michael Cohen, lied to the Committee about highly relevant issues and ultimately pled guilty for those lies."

"It is necessary to point this out, because the President and his allies have made the false claim that GOP members and staff have been precluded from attending or asking questions — nothing could be further from the truth," the letter said.

Enough time for them to finish writing their story while the media solidfies the narrative with the average Joes.
Adam Schiff needs to climb into his clowncar and get the hell out of our lives. His road has a very deadly ending coming. Nancy and him should be charged with everything in the book. Much more of this will not be tolerated by Americans.
They're people they think they can mine for lies and phony accusations. They have to be shut up until they say what the dems want them to.
Adam Schiff has lost his feeble little mind.
Joseph McCarthy was a piker compared to what they are doing today
Just know that the WSJ is inhabited by globalist neocons, and were never on Trump or the Tea Party’s side.
It is unFREAKINGbelievable and I have a feeling we ain’t seen nothing yet.
These coupist Democrats are sick, sick people. But that are battling every day. OTOH, the Doormat GOP is AWOL as always.
It is unFREAKINGbelievable and I have a feeling we ain’t seen nothing yet.
I agree given that Do-Nothing McConnell continues to green light the coupists in the House. Madness.
I don’t think I’ve ever heard that phrase used before. He’s making up transcripts and news morsel lies, so I guess these are just more of the same.
Schiff: The whistle-blower will testify in a week
Schiff: The whistle-blower is gettign threats
Schiff: What whistle-blower?
Wow, Adam Schiff learned a new word.
A schiff by any other name is still a weasel.
Schiff needs personal security. A ton of it.
Here’s what this is. I figured it out yesterday. The wearing a wire by Eisenstein st, al, failed to prove Trump unfit. Sooo.....We now take every employee in the Whitehouse and put them before a committee to tell Schiff what he would like to hear on a recorded wire. If it’s juicy they declare them a whistle blower, true or not.
“investigative equities”
googling this, it looks to me that this is a meaningless term that is mostly invoked when the Deep State needs to obfuscate something ...
It’s akin to double-secret probation.
I wish the Pubs in the senate had the courage to dismiss the eventual articles of impeachment on the grounds the inquiry was conducted in an unconstitutional manner.
All McConnell needs to do is take a vote and shut impeachment down. They don’t need any grounds to do that.
In other words: NEVER. As it would prove that “Shifty Full of Schitt Schiff” (As always) is lying out of his @$$. All he does is lie!!!!!
The voices in his head.
