Schiff drafting legislation to set up 9/11-style commission to review coronavirus response
The Hill ^ | 04 01 2020 | J. Edward Moreno

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) is drafting legislation that would set up an independent commission that would investigate why the country was unprepared for the coronavirus pandemic.

“After Pearl Harbor and 9/11, we looked at what went wrong to learn from our mistakes,” the House Intelligence Committee Chairman said in a tweet. “Once we've recovered, we need a nonpartisan commission to review our response and how we can better prepare for the next pandemic.”

Schiff did not give specifics regarding when the legislation will be dropped, but suggested it would be after Congress finishes the task at hand: mulling a series of stimulus packages aimed at alleviating the economic impact of the pandemic. Sources familiar with the legislation told NBC News the legislation is "very preliminary."

“We will need to delay the work of the commission until the crisis has abated to ensure that it does not interfere with the agencies that are leading the response,” Schiff told the Washington Post. “But that should not prevent us from beginning to identify where we got it wrong and how we can be prepared for the next pandemic.”

My guess is, this will go over like a screen door on a submarine, once people see how the dems downplayed Trump’s efforts.

This guy needs to get a life. Let’s waste more taxpayer dollars just so I can get my face on TV. I hope this is nipped in the bud by both sides of the aisle, as there are more important things to do than try to “get Trump”.

How about not letting judges overrule the President...like on blocking Iran flights?
How about NOT ENCOURAGING people to go to Chinatown celebrations...ie Pelosi, DeBlasio
How about not encouraging people to gather for Mardi Gras?
Etc.

Methinks we are far safer these days when CONGre$$ is NOT in session. IT, like so many institutions, has lost its way.. and its mind.

I was saying this two weeks ago the RATs would hold hearings in the House over this just before the election, but then we all knew they would do this. So predictable!

I’m sure he’s already got the conclusion predetermined, facts be damned.

This is making the rounds on the democratic conspiracy sites.

Maxine Waters @RepMaxineWaters

Trump, you incompetent idiot! You sent 18 tons of PPE to China early but ignored warnings & called COVID19 concerns a hoax. You’ve endangered doctors, nurses, aids, orderlies, & janitors - all risking their lives to save ours. Pray 4 forgiveness for the harm that you’re causing!
