Schiff Facing a $16 Million Fine for False Allegations Against Trump
The Patriot Brief ^ | May 29, 2023 | None given

Posted on 05/29/2023 1:29:17 PM PDT by Jess Kitting

The people who promoted the Russia conspiracy fiction are the subject of additional investigations, now that Special Counsel John Durham’s investigation has been made public.

One of the primary advocates of the untrue assertion that former President Trump worked with the Russian government to sway the results of the presidential election of 2016 was Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA).

There is currently a motion in Congress to censure him for the lies he uttered right after the election.

A measure designed to punish Schiff with a $16 million fee for his allegations that Trump conspired with Russia in the 2016 election has been presented by Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL).

Per Luna, that totality is nearly equivalent to the expenses of the federal inquiry into the phony conspiracy which was refuted by special counsel findings from Robert Mueller and John Durham.

Couldn't happen to a more deserving character, although $16 million is probably chump change for Schiff, considering what he has taken in from political corruption over the years.

It'd be great if this measure ever takes effect but it won't - members of Congress, both Democrat and Republican, are not going to be OK with the idea of ever being held accountable for the things they say and do.

I agree. The headline is silly. Not only is there no chance that such a measure would ever pass both houses of Congress to be signed by FJB, wouldn’t such a bill be a prohibited ‘Bill of Attainder’?

It is also important to note that any lie told by Schiff, no matter how egregious, while on the House floor is protected by the Constitution.

I like the idea of criminal congresscritters like Schiff paying back the treasury for the costs incurred to the taxpayers by their fraudulent activities.

Rep. Luna is onto something.

Wouldn't it be great if we could be reimbursed for nonsense spending by congress?

(I know: I'm dreaming.)

So true and if it comes to it, his masters will pay the fine gladly.

If only!!! I don’t believe he will face any fine, but especially not a large fine.

If Trump can be impeached for "inciting a riot," then Schiff should be impeached/kicked out of office for "inciting theft" from the U.S. taxpayers.

Schiff did it knowingly, and with intent to deceive and defraud US citizens.
