House Intelligence Committee chairman Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) accused Attorney General William Barr of lying to the American people about the threat level China poses to the U.S. election Sunday on CNN.
Reacting to a CNN clip of Barr saying China is engaged the most aggressive election interference, Schiff said, “That’s just a plain false statement by the attorney general, a flat-out false statement. Interestingly some other administration officials have been trying to mislead the public by saying China is the bigger threat to the country in speaking of global terms because of the rising power of China. They’re using that answer in response to questions about the election, but they’re at least careful in their misleading the public by not saying that they’re a greater threat to the election. They’re saying generically that they’re a bigger threat. But what Bill Barr just did in that statement was just flat-out mislead the American people with a blatantly false statement. Joe Biden has been briefed as well as our committees, and he acknowledged as much the other day. It’s just such a disservice to the country that we can’t trust our own attorney general, but apparently, Bill Barr is willing to do anything or say anything to help Donald Trump.”
Anchor Dana Bash said, “You’re basically saying he’s lying.”
Schiff said, “Well, that’s basically what he’s doing. And I hesitate to say that, but it is the reality. Bill Barr isn’t going to itemize the intelligence because it’s just a flat-out false statement.”
Bash said, “And you’re confident that you have seen the intelligence that he has seen, and you’ve come to clearly a different conclusion and that conclusion being it is Russia that is far more active in trying to sow disinformation, misinformation in this election more than China?”

p
Barr must be telling the truth then.
Hey Schiff, when are you coming out with all your “evidence” of Trump lawbreaking?
This little poltroon certainly knows a thing of two about lying
Guy is not competent to head the Intelligence Committee
His blind bat shit crazy partisanship render him unqualified
I hope Barr is setting the table for Trump to ban mail-in voting on national security grounds.
For once, Schiff is right. The biggest threat is the dems and their stuffing the ballot boxes and\or getting illegals to vote illegally, or dead people to vote while dead.
I think Schiff calling ANYONE a liar and expecting anyone to believe him is kinda funny. :)
Probably, but Barr is OUR liar. FU Schiff.
So just why is Schiff shilling for Chinese election interference?
It’s not just partisanship, China has made Schiff batshit rich to go along with batshit crazy. Truly, he should be hanging from a lamppost with piano wire for his sellout treason.
Barr was comparing China to Russia and contending that China comprises the larger threat. So, no, Schiff is not right.
You forgot the general rule: If Schiff is talking, he is lying.
I have a feeling that Sch!tt is the one who is lying.
“I know, cause that’s what the Chicoms told me [to say]”
Couldn’t get much more absurd than arguing about which enemy is interfering “more”. China is the more potent enemy by far.
So, the Democrat position is that China is good but Russia is bad. Who’s going to believe that, other than strident partisan Democrats?
My appreciation for Mr. Barr just went up 20%. Thanks to Schiff for brains attack.
“Bill Barr isn’t going to itemize the intelligence because it’s just a flat-out false statement.” “
Now, that is a stunning statement.
For years the democrats have sworn up and down, backwards and forwards, that intelligence data confirms that the Russians tampered with, if not outright stole for Trump, the 2016 election. However, they have NEVER ITEMIZED the evidence. Have never spelled out exactly how the Russians managed to pull it off.
Now, here is little adam schiff demanding that Barr do what he and his democrat fellow thugs never did themselves.
Schiff and the rest of the commie bought, bought and paid for by China..they will NEVER EVER say one negative word about China because they are owned by China..China bought them a long time ago..that is why China had ZERO worry when they created the virus and spread it worldwide, they knew their protectors in America would protect their asses
