WASHINGTON — House Intelligence Committee Ranking Member Adam Schiff refused to give a reason why he reportedly blocked witnesses related to his committee’s Russia probe from testifying.

When first asked by The Daily Caller Tuesday about blocking witnesses scheduled to testify, Schiff only responded, “I don’t agree with the premise of your question.”

TheDC asked Schiff again on Wednesday and mentioned Carter Page as an example of a witness who was scheduled to testify but was blocked by Schiff from doing so.

The DOJ should INVESTIGATE Schiff for Obstruction of Justice, then indict the SOB.

He KNEW all along that Pres. Trump was not a target of criminal FBI investigation for "collusion," yet he acted and spoke like he was.

His head looks like a lollipop on a skinny stick.

I think Carter Page ASKED to testify.

There's a real possibility it will leak.

I’m really surprised that the Dems, who are the minority party, have veto power over the witnesses.

What kind of crazy rule is that?

The reason is obvious.

Schiff is running interference for his seditious fellow travelers.

Yes, and they scheduled him to appear, but cancelled the agreed date and failed to reschedule him, dragging their feet mightily.

Schiffty does not want to hear from Carter Page. His testimony would only prove further embarrassment to Schiffty and cohort Democrats, at a time when their “Russia, Russia, Russia” meme is been blown out of the water and sky high.

Sciffty would have been far better off to have already been done with Carter Page long ago, when as you said Page offered to testify late last year, for crying out loud.

This is a good laugh on Schiff for being a dunce.

Interesting the RATS are blocking those who have the potential of blowing the whole investigation up. The RATS are afraid someone will shut it down.

Again, there’s not been ANY proof of the allegations. NONE!

An investigation that’s lasted almost a year and what do they have to show for it? Bean flavored bupkis.

Agreed, hal ogen!

Schiff is darned near in Schumer territory with his relentless block and tackle against anything that exposes his part in the Russia “collusion” conspiracy, used as a false flag to libel and impune Trump and his administration, on what was absolutely nothing from the beginning but innuendo.

I do wish it turns out that the president has the power and prerogative to rip the mask off the Obama unmaskers.

I hope he can send the damn National Guard into the Obama Library of Hide the Documents, along with the Justice Department, to take those documents and close the damn place down until they are found. Take THAT, Susan Rice!

So Mr. “Get to the Bottom of Trunp-Russia” now has nothing to say, after persistently claiming publicly there is “more than circumstantial” evidence.

This pencil-necked cretin needs to be taken to the proverbial woodshed by Trunmp.

The real question is....why do the questions regarding the obfuscations and misdirections of this pencil-neck geek, Adam Shiffty, have to be raised on forums such as this one (FR) and by citizens such as we (freepers)???

In short, where are the Republicans on this Intelligence committee...and why aren't THEY in front of the microphones same as this Dem guy? Where is the Republican chairman of the committee???

What party is the majority on this committee, anyway !!!
