Schiff's Latest Russia Warning Involves... Black Lives Matter?
Townhall ^ | 30 August 2020 | Beth Baumann

Posted on 08/30/2020 1:18:16 PM PDT by Magnatron

Congressman Adam Schiff (D-CA) has spent the last two-and-a-half years telling Americans that the Trump campaign colluded with Russia to win the 2016 election. Despite hundreds of subpoenas and millions of dollars spent on the Mueller probe, the special counsel found no collusion took place. But that doesn't stop Schiff from continuing to make the claim.

In fact, on Sunday, Schiff made the ridiculous argument that the Russians infiltrated the Black Lives Matter movement as a way of getting President Trump reelected.

"In terms of what we can expect from the Russians and what the Russians are doing, the Russian four years ago, Dana, exploited Black Lives Matter. They set up their own false flags online to try and divide people on racial lines," he told CNN's Dana Bash. "There are, once again, doing their best in social media, in their overt media, and other means to grow these divisions."

Schiff said Americans should be concerned over the growing division that's "aggravating these tensions in our cities."

"We also have to worry about the Russians pushing out the president's false narratives about voting by mail," he said.

Pretty soon, the Democrats are going to run out of straight jackets for all of their lunatics.

When the KGB infiltrated and partnered with civil rights groups to cause unrest and collaborated with SDS we were told that this was a Red Scare, hysteria, and paranoia.

It’s hard to tell whose side the Dems are on without a score card.

If he really believes that, wouldn’t he be calling for the arrest of Black Lies Matter rioters, organizers, and funders? Wouldn’t he be in favor of declaring Black Lies Matter a domestic terrorist group?

No, he doesn’t call for any of these things, because he is a dirty, low down, scummy liar.

We already knew that Russia had infiltrated BLM. It wasn’t to help Trump, though, so the media ignored it. All the Russian propaganda was meant to divide us. They never believed Trump would win. In an attempt to advance their narrative, the media ignored that the Russian trolls were actually organizing protests and counter protests at the same time.

Second time today I’ve seen this turd of an idea floated.

The Dems loved Russia

right up to the moment they ditched communism.

Then the Dems hated Russia.

It’s not Russia behind the Dems

It’s not “ Russia Russia Russia “ anything.

It’s COMMUNIST China

Nice try though.

So “Black Lives Matter” is a Russian Communist plot to divide America? It’s what I’ve suspected from the beginnng. Thank you, Schiff, for bring it out in the open. BLACK LIVES MATTER is a Russian plot to divide Americs (Schiff says so).

Haven’t heard much from ol’ Schiffty, nor from the members of The Squad. Maxine Waters seems to be layin’ low too.

That's because Durham is going to commence with the indictments shortly after Labor Day.
