Adam Schiff dings Jack Smith's inquiry for moving 'very slowly' on Trump

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) blasted the Justice Department for moving "very slowly" on its inquiries revolving around former President Donald Trump.

An unabashed Trump critic, Schiff argued that if the DOJ intends to move forward with charges, it should have already done so and demurred when asked about concerns over the viability of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's rumored case against Trump.

“I do share the concern that the Justice Department should have moved on this case — if they are going to move on it — a long time ago,” he told CNN. "You have other prosecutions now that are going forward first, but I certainly think that the Justice Department should have pursued this with far more urgency."

Special counsel Jack Smith was appointed to spearhead the DOJ's investigations revolving around Trump for the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, efforts to overturn the 2020 election, and the Mar-a-Lago classified document scandal. Trump has denied wrongdoing and decried the inquiry as a witch hunt.

Since the DOJ began targeting Jan. 6 rioters, over 992 people have been charged, according to an Associated Press tracker. Schiff commended the DOJ for its actions surrounding the inquiry over Trump's handling of classified documents but called for more urgency on Trump's machinations with the 2020 election.

"It appears, at least, vis a vis the Mar-a-Lago case, there is that urgency now. I've never seen a briefing schedule where you're asked to brief up until midnight," he said. "But on the most serious charges, not Mar-a-Lago, either of the most serious charges around Jan. 6, there the Justice Department should have moved, in my view, a long time before now."

It’s Schiff and his young pal in the “Liddle Kidz” *mentoring* program a lot of these SoCal pedophiles used to groom kids. They would massage them.

It’s why Trump always called him “Liddle Adam.”

There is an epidemic of self- lynching going around. From DeSantis and down everyone casting shade on Trump is revealing himself to be a styoopid weak lame brained tool of the current tyrannical thing. And the corruption of the system is so blatant that no one can miss it. Judges in league with FBI CHSs subverting attorney client privilege, and withholding exculpatory evidence. The system is broke but Slava Ukraine and send them another $100 B to kill Russsians who just live in a gas stop anyway.

Maybe some caution is in order. Just a thought.

Dems have not only “Moved slowly” against Hunter & the Biden Family corrupt entities-—they in many cases have NOT moved at all.

Shiff can pound sand, IMO.
