During the first California Senate debate, former baseball player turned Republican candidate Steve Garvey confronted Congressman Adam Schiff for lying to millions of Americans about Russian collusion with President Trump’s campaign.
The debate, which took place Monday, featured four candidates vying for the seat left vacant by Sen. Dianne Feinstein.
Adam Schiff, or “Shifty Schiff,” known for his role in the sham impeachment trials of former president Trump, faced off against World Series & 10x MLB All-Star champion Garvey, as well as fellow Democrats Katie Porter and Barbara Lee.
Throughout the debate, the Democrats focused their criticism on Trump’s presidency and attempted to corner Garvey on his stance regarding the former president.
Garvey asserted that Trump was the right choice in both the 2016 and 2020 elections while remaining non-committal about the upcoming election.

While all candidates sought to establish their political stances, the debate took a dramatic turn when the topic of Russian collusion was broached.
Garvey bluntly confronted Schiff for lying to the American people.
“I think you’ve been censored for lying,” Garvey asserted, referencing Schiff’s past statements on Russian collusion.
Serial liar Adam Schiff knew there was no collusion between President Trump, his family, or any of his campaign officials with Russian officials.
Yet he pushed this lie with Hillary Clinton and the Democrats for years. As later revealed in the Durham Report, Hillary Clinton’s plan to link Trump’s campaign to Russia was briefed by former CIA Director John Brennan to Barack Obama and Joe Biden in August 2016! It was a Democrat plot.
This is why Republicans in Congress voted to Censure Schiff.

Schiff countered the “accusations” by asserting his censure was a consequence of confronting a “corrupt president,” a stance he claimed he would proudly take again.
“Mr. Garvey, I was censured for standing up to a corrupt president, and you know something? I would do it all over again. Because that corrupt president, that president who’s been indicted with 94 felony counts, that president that you won’t refuse to support… yeah, he’s a danger. And I will stand up to him, Kevin McCarthy, Jim Jordan, and any of those MAGA enablers of his in Congress. The reason why our democracy is in trouble is because folks don’t have the courage to stand up when they need to,” claimed lying pencil-neck Adam Schiff.
Garvey, unfazed by Schiff’s argument, persisted, “Sir, you lied to 300 million people. You can’t take that back.”
WATCH:
shifty lied which shows he didn’t stand up on principle but just to lie...
Now here’s another obvious play the Republicans could make if they had any guts. Schiff has claimed FOR YEARS that his primary residence is Maryland. He should be expelled for that fact alone, aside from the fact that he’s a lying piece of !@#$.
how many Dodger Democrats will vote for all time great Dodger Steve Garvey?
“The reason why our democracy is in trouble”
Garvey’s the only hope for a Senate pick up in CA, and he might just be able to pull it off. He’s been out of the public eye for a long time, but people here in CA like to vote for celebrities. See, among others Reagan, R., and Schawrezenegger, A
Thanks for the ping.
He’d be a sitting senator if he didn’t knock up those 2 women in the 80’s. Blew his chances when Calif. was still red. We always do that. Still I wish him well.
The top 2 will advance regardless of party. Schiff should be one of them. Republicans could pay him back by supporting the other democrat. Should Garvey get lucky he’d probably lose. Calif. is too crazy. ?
What does Garvey offer? Moderation? Republicans ‘understanding’ his lack of full support for Trump? Sympathy for showing class to Cindy’s going crazy on him? At least he’s aged well as opposed to those 2 baggers and the pencil neck.
adding to must watch list
“...if he didn’t knock up those 2 women in the 80’s”
C’mon, who didn’t knock up at least two women back in the 80’s?
Wait, never mind...
Schiff is not at all popular in California; he is seen as a duplicitous snake-in-the-grass. Of course, he is banking on the D next to his name to carry him over the goal line; and it may very well.
Is Garvey worth a $100 contribution? I’d only give that money to a candidate that had a chance of winning. With the senate it’s butts in the seats. I’d give to RINO’s once. Happened with the underwear model who succeeded Kennedy in Ma. Well spent.
does cali have ranked choice voting ... like alaska?
knocking up two wommen in the 80’s?
I never heard of that, but I don’t keep up much with MLB or cali.
that could work in his favor today, if he can claim he helped them get an abortion?
Thanks. In this asylum, any value added beyond having (R) next to his name would be gravy
Many will vote for the Garv! Popeye arms, a good bat and a great Dodger player.
Handled himself well last night. Katie Porter’s snide remark about Garvey ie “Once a Dodger, always a Dodger” will back-fire on her. It is not the gotcha line she thinks it is.
Don’t use the no experience as an excuse not to accept Garvey as a Candidate.
What experience did AOC, Ilham Omar, Idiot Tlieb, Raskin, Schiff, on and on and on ...HAVE?
NONE
Garvey looks like a great guy and WAS EXACTLY WHAT FOUNDING FATHERS MEANT TO BE IN OUR CONGRESS.
TAKE THE WIN...GARVEY IS A WINNER!!!!
I hope the Garv batters Adam Schiff with Ed Buck, Russia Collusion and the Standard Hotel relentlessly.
