They don`t have to change their policies. They could have -- continue to have backward regressive policies. They don`t have to appeal to what their constituents want, as long as they can essentially prohibit people from voting who won`t…
Adam Schiff
The Public Record
Adam Bennett Schiff is an American lawyer and politician currently serving as the U.S. Representative for California's 28th congressional district, a position he has held since January 3, 2001. A member of the Democratic Party, Schiff has played a significant role in various legislative efforts and is known for his work on national security and intelligence issues. He served as the Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, where he was involved in high-profile investigations and oversight of intelligence agencies.
If we don`t address this gerrymander problem, then two years from now, we will be dealing with gerrymandered districts for the next decade.
Well, I share that sense of urgency because if we don`t address this effort to disenfranchise people by the enactment of various laws at the state level, and now there are over 150 new proposals by Republican legislators to cut people off…
There ought to be a personal consequence to the Crown Prince. That`s obviously a delicate task.
Absolutely. It`s going to be unquestionably a very different relationship than it has been for the last four years where Donald Trump gave the crown prince carte blanche and as you point out, was even willing to help cover up for the…
I don`t think we can get around it and you`re right, this is a powerful statement of attribution by the intelligence community. They didn`t withhold anything. They said the crown prince basically has blood on his hands for ordering this…
If he`s not disqualified from running and he does run again, we cannot say we are surprised, when he once again lies about an election, incites and inflames people and leads them to violence.
I think Jamie Raskin and the team of managers flawlessly presented the case. Powerfully, emotionally, they drew on the constitution and the law, they drew on common sense. You couldn`t make a more persuasive case and the facts are on their…
If he got away with this, if he was allowed to commit impeachable offenses and there was no repercussion, we have to fully expect he would do it again.
It has really become a cult of personality around the president. It doesn`t have an ideology anymore. It doesn`t have principles anymore and it`s willing to welcome in white nationalists, QAnon conspiracy theorists, people that will use…
If it`s not impeachable to convict and disqualify a president from running for election who points a mob at the Capitol to stop the peaceful transfer of power, then there`s no such thing as impeachment anymore.
But imagine that the President of the United States puts his own vice president`s life at risk. And why? So, he can help steal an election.
Donald Trump was going to do anything to stay in power, whether that be influence the election by blackmailing Ukraine on the phone or in this case inciting an insurrection so that his supporters could stop a Democratic process from…
And it just shows the premeditation that for months, he`s lying about the election, saying he`s not going to accept the results if he doesn`t win or he won`t commit to accepting the results.
I do. And I don`t think it`s even close. And I say that as someone who thought his last presidential abuse was among the most serious in history. But I say that because the paramount concern of the Founders was that a president would seek…
Well, Ari, that’s a very important question, because the managers try this case not just to the senators, but perhaps more even importantly to the American people.
Well, look, this is a very different presidential abuse. And, in this case, you don’t need the imagination of senators to wonder what it would be like to be on the Ukraine front lines with Russia and have military aid withheld in order to…
Absolutely. You know, it was very apparent after the first trial that, if he were left in office, that he would seek to cheat again, that he would do great damage to the country. It is equally plain now that, if he is not disqualified from…
There is no First Amendment defense to ignoring and violating your constitutional duty.
If a president says to a foreign power secretly that I will do anything you want because I want to build a tower in Moscow, that’s not protected by the First Amendment simply because he vocalizes his corrupt intent.
He has betrayed our national security and he will do so again. He has compromised our elections and he will do so again. You will not change him. You cannot constrain him.
It means the world, and, Joy, I can`t tell you how grateful I was to see a U.S. president acting like a U.S. president.
