Sen. Adam Schiff is emerging as the central target in President Donald Trump’s escalating campaign against political adversaries, with a federal probe into his personal finances and allegations of leaks amplifying a long-running feud, The Hill reported.
The California Democrat, who investigated Russia’s election interference and led Trump’s first impeachment trial, is now facing scrutiny over whether he improperly secured favorable mortgage terms for his Maryland home. Schiff denies wrongdoing and has launched a legal defense fund, signaling he expects a protracted fight.
The Justice Department appointed Ed Martin, a Trump ally and head of the newly formed Weaponization Working Group, to oversee the investigation. Schiff has retained former U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara, who blasted the probe as "the very definition of weaponization of the justice process."
"Adam Schiff is a sleazy and corrupt politician who betrayed his oath to the Constitution by prioritizing his selfish and personal animosity toward the President over the interests of the American people," the White House said in a statement.
Trump himself has frequently mocked Schiff, branding him a "sleazebag," "pencil neck," and one of the "enemies from within."
Beyond the mortgage probe, Schiff faces accusations that he leaked classified documents. But FBI findings determined the claims stemmed from a single former House Intelligence Committee staffer deemed unreliable.

“ Scumer, Durbin and Schiff”
Sounds like an ambulance chasing law firm!
Schiff’s bugeyes make him look like he’s always being probed.
Why is it when dems try to bring down a republican candidate or office holder “no one is above the law”, whereas when a pubbie goes after a dem, it’s an attack? /rhetorical
Thanks, Liz!
Maybe he is.
I’m sure not the first time schiff’s been probed..
“Trump’s escalating campaign against political adversaries”
Newsmax joining the MSM in lying about Trump. These are scumbags who committed high crimes and tried to overthrow a duly elected POTUS, not “political adversaries”.
Thanks, Liz!
y/v/w
Now why on Earth would an innocent man need a defense fund? /s
At this rate it will take 20 years to get to the key players. Schiff is just a useful idiot, but I would certainly enjoy seeing him squirm...
I can’t think of a more deserving perp. The creep belongs in jail until we can decide upon an appropriate sentence.
See tag line.
This sentence makes it sound like Trump is doing something unfair, unethical or illegal. He isn't. Schiff broke the law, multiple times. The DoJ prosecutors will bring a case in the same way that they do with any other politician. All the Trump has done is stop the shielding of Dem politicians who were able to break the law with no consequence under previous administrations.
Would have been great to have this style of headline when they were trying to destroy Trump for years....
“In their 32nd vindictive attempt to kill President Trump via treason charges which carry the potential for a sentence of capital punishment, lowlifes at the DOJ are pretending he said something in a phone call to Ukraine which only Biden has historically been allowed to say.”
If l had to pick just one rat scumbag to put in jail it would Schiff. It’s a tough choice but yes.
Adam Schiff is trapped like the rat he is his pals aren’t in much better shape to help him.
The good old boy club has been knocked on it’s ass and Trump still has his shitty shoes on to finish the job.
MAGA in action and about time.
Trump probing Adam Schiff??!!?
EWWW, Yuck!!
Who does Trump think he is? Ed Buck?
