House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) said he supports open House hearings regarding President Trumps order last week for a strike that killed top Iranian commander Gen. Qassem Soleimani.
Schiff, who is among lawmakers who were briefed a day after last weeks attack, told The Washington Post there should be open hearings on the administration's decision to strike.
The president has put us on a path where we may be at war with Iran. That requires the Congress to fully engage, Schiff told the Post in an interview published Monday.
Schiff said theres absolutely no way Trumps threat to retaliate with disproportionate attacks, should Iran strike the U.S., reflects Pentagon planning.
None of that could come out of the Pentagon, Schiff said.
A Pentagon spokesperson was not immediately available for comment when contacted by The Hill.

Why don’t the Democrats just impeach Trump since they hate him so much?
Oh, right...
Schiff must love getting spanked in public.
First things first, Bozo!
We want to know ALL ABOUT your phony impeachment scam FIRST!
You and your LIEberal Democrat associates in the US House have done far more damage to the USA than POTUS’ killing an Iranian thug!
This is all classified and must stay that way. Prosecute leakers.
The DOD plans do not run CIC actions and policy.
Tell Schiff to GTH
The elephant in the room question is how does the country deal with a House of Representatives that is in enemy hands and a greater threat to the USA than any other foreign or domestic enemy.
“What the founding fathers forgot to do is to find a way to stop congress from abusing its powers.”
They didn’t forget and this contingency is accounted for.
The entire House stands for election every two years.
The best solution IMHO.
After the last SchiffShow I wouldn’t blame the Republicans if they boycotted his next showtrail. Or mounted a disruption campaign.
Schiff must love getting spanked in public.
He does it well, first in line every time.
“Schiff must love getting spanked in public.”
I’d like to see him subjected to a Viking Blood Eagle.
F*** off, Adam Paranoid Schizophrenic Schitt!
You are not the Commander in Chief!! Youre a corrupt lying low level POS, insanely jealous of President Trump. Every word out of your mouth is vile stinking feces, lies and poison.
Go F yourself, that is if you have any junk to do it withdoubtful!!!
Well, the best solution excepting trials and hangings.
We came. We saw. He died. Next question.
He’s terrified. Good. Deserves to be. let’s get him to GITMO!
Viking Blood Eaglethats the technique where someone would carefully slice slits in Schittforbrains back muscles between his ribs and then pull his lungs out through the slits. Just outstanding!!!!
Let’s do the hearings.
I can’t wait to hear why Bammy and his minions Clapper and Brennan decided to give cash to Iran in the dead of night without telling Congress was a good idea.
Like Biden, Kerry and Pelosi, surely Schiff must have a kid with his hand in the wrong cookie jar. ?
Schiff wants headlines? Time to give him some.
Uh no. There is another pesky thing called the 2d Amendment that the Founding Fathers thought might be quite valuable in checking a rogue congress.
New House definition of high crime on which to impeach Trump:
“Giving an order that leads to the death of any beloved Iranian icon.”
Any evidence saying he was a murderous, conniving enemy in uniform who planned on killing additional innocent people——is hereby rule out of order by Schiff. It’s a “conspiracy hoax” like Hunter Biden not being an angel sent to Earth.
The Pentagon houses the US Military Forces command center-— the US Military’s Commander in Chief is the President of the USA— the Chief Executive. Who executes the Policy, and the Constitutional Authority of the Executive Branch.
Schiff’s “argument” is specious, and as arrogant as that fat Ukrainian NSC WH Leaker, “You should call me Colonel”-Vindmann. Self righteous prick on US Policy— we ask your opinion— we don’t “JOB OUT” the policy to you. So you run and cry to a “whistleblower” who isn’t one— and you give hearsay of a phone call you translated, like a couple of old fags getting upsetty-pie their soup wasn’t hot enough.
