We see this crescendo in an effort by the president to discredit the votes of millions, to stack the Supreme Court, to disenfranchise millions and perpetuate himself in office by enlisting foreign assistance. There's a common denominator…
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 they rush through this, if they ignore their own Senate rules, McConnell's own rule in an effort to stack the court, then I do think that Senator Schumer will need to consider, OK, how do we unstack the court after the election?
I think the hypocrisy matters to the American people. It also matters to the American people whether they can keep their health care.
The Supreme Court is going to decide whether we have the Affordable Care Act. That argument is going to be heard right after the election. So this election may very well determine whether millions of people lose their health care during a…
People are in the midst of voting right now in a presidential election. That needs to come first.
One of the things that I think is really driving support for Joe Biden at the polls is the fact that the president has done such a terrible job handling the pandemic.
There is such a consistent pattern here, Lawrence, of the president not wanting to hear any information that contradicts his narrative, being willing to lie to the American people and over time bending these agencies to his will, to the…
The president won't stand up to Putin when it comes to bounties on the heads of U.S. troops, won't stand up to him when it comes to assaulting U.S. troops in Syria as the Russians recently did, won't stand up to the Russians on election…
Obviously, something changed, Lawrence, from their commitments to do these periodic hearings to make sure that Congress but more importantly the country was informed about Russia's effort to help re-elect Donald Trump.
They didn't want to remind people that the president of the United States was impeached, one of just three in history to go to trial in the Senate for abusing his power.
It may not have been enough to charge either Trump or his campaign with a crime. But it is certainly unethical, improper, immoral and reprehensible.
I think both of them highlighted. One, you know, Colin Powell, the threat from outside the country the danger of from an adventurous Russia, the danger from the challenge posed by China. But from Sally Yates, the threat from within, the…
Do we want a president who spends his day watching TV all day and tweeting bile? Or do we want a president who is spending his day trying to help the country move forward? I think the choice is pretty clear.
I don't think there's any question about it. But who can really be surprised by that? It's been a long litany of lies from this president.
One thing I learned very early on in the Russia investigation. The threat to our democracy from outside the country, from hostile powers like Russia is now much less than the threat from within from a would-be autocrat named Donald Trump.
