Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) raked in more than $2.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2019, a hefty haul that came during his high-profile leadership over the House’s impeachment investigation into President Trump.
Schiff is entering 2020 with more than $8.1 million cash on hand, a substantial figure for a House member in an election year. Schiff’s race is not particularly competitive – he won reelection in 2018 with nearly 80 percent of the vote in California’s 28th Congressional District.
The California Democrat has won plaudits from members of his own party for his handling of the House Intelligence Committee’s impeachment investigation. He also impressed members of both parties as Democrats’ lead impeachment manager in the Senate.
Schiff’s increased profile during the impeachment proceedings seem to be linked with a spike in donations; his fourth quarter haul is more than double what he raised in the second and third quarters when he raked in just over $1 million during each three-month stretch.
The lawmaker’s rise has sparked speculation among Schiff’s colleagues about his future ambitions, with some indicating he could one day run for Senate or House speaker.

His voter base:
California's 28th congressional district is a congressional district in the U.S. state of California, in Los Angeles County. The district is regarded as a Democratic stronghold and is currently represented by Democrat Adam Schiff.
The district includes West Hollywood, Burbank, parts of Pasadena, Glendale, the Verdugo Hills communities of Sunland and Tujunga, as well as parts of central Los Angeles including Hollywood, the Hollywood Hills, Echo Park, Silver Lake, and Los Feliz. As it includes Glendale and Little Armenia, it has the largest Armenian-American population of any district in the country (Schiff cites the Armenian population at greater than 70,000).
Word is that Schitt wants to be a Senator.
any Republicans? any chance? worth working on?
Los Angeles County? Not a chance.
That would end quickly if Ed Buck had video of Shitf buggering one of Ed’s boy friends.
Drew Pinsky (”Dr Drew”) was considering running.
“any Republicans? any chance? worth working on”?
Yes, there’s a chance....a snowball’s chance in Hell.
How liberal or conservative are Armenian-Americans?
I know nothing about them as a voting bloc.
When the Democrat/Left Party’s whacked-out base comes to and realizes Trump hasn’t been removed they’ll want their money back ... forgiveness is not a value on the Left.
One word, "Cher".
How much of this money was from Hollywood?
It’s good to be in politics.
Streisand is touting him for President in 2024.
All that money won’t matter if Schiff is one of those to be indicted next, and I hope AG Barr is working on it.
He’s located in the cesspool next to a swap.
Looks like Schiff wants to replace Pelosi. That’ll be a good look for the Dems. : )
He must be a hero in West Hollywood, the homosexual lair of LA. They open their double-income, no-kids wallets for him, no problem.
How much came from the Lavendar Mafia?
