SCHIFF WANTED OBAMA TO DECLASSIFY RUSSIA DOCS — IF TRUMP DOES IT, HE’S ‘UN-AMERICAN’
Democratic California Rep. Adam Schiff said Thursday that President Donald Trump’s decision to declassify information related to the origins of the Russia probe was “un-American.” Just more than two years ago, however, Schiff called on then-President Barack Obama to declassify some of the very same information.
On the heels of Trump’s decision to give Barr wide latitude with regard to declassifying the pertinent information, Schiff tweeted , “While Trump stonewalls the public from learning the truth about his obstruction of justice, Trump and Barr conspire to weaponize law enforcement and classified information against their political enemies.
The coverup has entered a new and dangerous phase. This is un-American.”But in December 2016, just a month prior to Trump’s inauguration, Schiff called on Obama to declassify as much information as possible, arguing that Trump would not allow it once he was in office. (RELATED: Trump Gives Attorney General Barr Power To Declassify Russia Probe Documents)
“President Obama can and must declassify as much as possible about Russia hacking our elections. Rest assured, Trump won’t,” Schiff’s 2016 tweet reads.
I think the all-caps in the article's title is the perfect way to introduce the hysterical nature of it.
Adam Schiff seems worried about something now.
He's petrified and may even know what's about to come out.
As XD said in 3.1 , so is the Dem Party.
If John Durham and everyone else do what they're supposed to do, it's pretty certain that many of us who have been following this from the beginning also know what's about to come out.
The best part of this IS John Durham. Intelligence officials won't get a pass like Hillary got!
Indeed.
And therein lies the fear within complicit Obama Administration officials, Democrats, and MSM. There's no way that anyone can deny that Comey, Brennan, Clapper, etc have (again) ramped up their presence on their complicit, friendly networks and on social media.
Thus far theyv'e all been able to publicly comment on Trump and the investigation, as political pundits! They thought they would get away with it!
If Hillary had won, all of them - from Obama down, would have gotten away with the biggest government coup in our history.
if she had won, there would have been a military coup and they would have all went to gitmo.
this version of history is much better. a military coup would not look good in our history books.
none of this would have been possible without military intelligence working behind the scenes.
admiral rogers is the real hero of this story.
cheers
Thank you for the lead on Admiral Rogers. Surprised he isn't getting more coverage.
This is the part I like best. No attempt at a cover up going on here.
Interesting how Clapper's name keeps popping up whether about Russia or ISIS! From 2016:
Oh, yes. Because this article really shows how Shitbag's supporters are perfectly calm and rational.
Please try to be more polite when discussing the topic of this seed. His name is Schiff, not Shitbag.
And your basis for absurd idea would be................
All one need do is compare Schiff's hypocritical 2016 and 2019 comments. Please focus on comments 1 and 2 to find the answer to your request.
I can't stand "Uber Hypocrite" Adam Shifty Schiff ……. at all !
He's the quintessential "I did, before I didn't ! piece of shit !
We completely get why Schiff is this hour's (or minute's) favorite hate target. He's determined to hold Shitbag's crimes up to public view. And all these sweat and tears to prevent that are going to fail and fail miserably.
Schiff has shown nothing to anyone, except his mouth flapping in the breeze !
Have you seen his "Paper" investigation yet ?
If so....show all of us !
Please answer the following:
What are you, an English teacher or something?
What an odd question that has no relevance to comment 4.2.2 and the seeded article. Thanks for strolling through my seed .
You're welcome. LOL
Here's where you slipped up, Jasper:
What Shitbag is ordering Barr to do is now is reveal whatever's necessary and only that which will corrupt the public perception of the the proper investigation of the collusion between Shitbag's campaign and Russian government intrusion into the election. But, let's also remind everyone here that Shitbaggers themselves were attacking (and still do it every other week or so) the Obama admin. for not doing just that during the campaign--which, of course they would have massive head explosions if that had been done at the time. So this game you lot keep playing of blaming the Obama DoJ for not doing enough then out of one side of your mouths and accusing it of unlawfully investigating Shitbag out of the other is really old and such an obvious "tell" about how even you people know Shitbag was dirty then and dirtier now. The desperation of trying to help cover up the crimes verily screams out of all your comments.
I guess you will keep denying the evidence as it starts dribbling and leaking out until the left wing bad actors start receiving indictments. If the Obama DOJ suspected Russian involvement in Trump's campaign, they should have spoken up to the public, and also warned Trump.
Why didn't they?? Now we are starting to find out why. Everything Barr is doing is following the law to get to the truth. The same can't be said of the previous administration.
So will the investigate those leaks too?
He DID. Sheesh one would have to live under a rock not to know that.
Again, they DID.
If everything Barr does follows the law, it could take him YEARS to get to the truth. Even with Trump giving him broad and sweeping authorities, Barr is still required to follow EO 13526, section 3.1 a and d. Coats has already indicated that he'll be releasing 'appropriate' information to Barr.
I'll ask for the umpteenth time. What laws do you allege that the previous administration violated? Please cite the code or statute.
It'll start making sense to you as we get closer to the election and Barr's investigation broadens and deepens.
I'm sure Durham will follow every breadcrumb to its source loaf.
fabricating evidence / using the the fbi, cia, doj, and illegally obtained FISA warrants to take down a sitting president is very illegal. in fact, they call that treason for a reason.
I hope obama represents himself in court... LOL
You made an assertion that you failed to support.
What happened to the Huber investigation that's been going on for over a year?
What evidence is that?
Wow, that's quite a litany of alphabet agencies.
How about your cite a code or statute that each one violated.
You DO realize that 3 out of the 4 FISA warrants were authorized under the Trump DOJ right?
You DO realize that each of the 4 FISA warrants were authorized by a different Federal Judge right?
Y'all insist that ALL 4 of those Judges were hoodwinked by the 'deep state' right?
So when will y'all call for Roberts to investigate and deal with those 4 Judges?
I mean, after all, Roberts is responsible for them being on the FISC. Should we demand that those Judges be removed or should we prosecute them too? They may have been complicit right? Or do y'all think that the 'deep state' doesn't slither into the Judiciary?
A president was 'taken down'? When?
Why yes XD, I AM aware that they are two distinct individuals, that's why I named Huber INDIVIDUALLY.
As for their mandates, Durham is to 'investigate the investigators" and Huber is to investigate 'the prosecutorial and investigative determinations made by the DOJ in 2016 and 2017'.
Sounds like pretty much that same thing to me.
Huber has been at it for over a year and not a peep out to him, despite the AG getting 'regular updates'.
Since Huber received such high praise, I would presume that Sessions, Whitaker or Barr would have mentioned Huber's recommendation opening further investigations if such a recommendation had occurred and that Huber wouldn't wait to finish his report to do so. Since no recommendations have been forthcoming, it looks pretty clear that the ones that have been opened by Barr are politically motivated.
You got bupkis, as usual.
that means nothing. the fisa court does not ask the doj if it can issue warrants... LOL
like robbing a bank, just trying is still illegal. but watching the left fail? totally priceless.
in progress...
but seriously... whats the rush? everything will come out before the next election.
we have plenty of time.
cheers
Who the fuck do you think applies for the FISA warrants? Can you really be that uninformed?
Great! Then cite who TRIED to take down Trump. Please give details...
It's been almost a month since Graham SAID he'd do that. NOTHING, NADA...you must be proud.
Well gee, y'all have had your hair on fire about abuse of the FISC and now you think that there is all the time in the world to address the issue you used to set the fire. Page will not be pleased with all your foot dragging.
Isn't that kind of what the left has been doing for the last 2 years? Are they still going to cry about his tax returns in 2023?
The rest that you said. I'm overwhelmed, nice rant.
No slip up.
--------------------------------
Good try though.
Using a sewer like Breitbart was, again, a poor move. I realize it's all you've got but it comes to less than nothing.
So, you're claiming that Sarah Sanders' statement is untrue simply because Breitbart used it. That's funny!
I'm saying using one pathologically lying source to try to back up another one just tells us that you really don't realize how fukking awful a case you make. Hilariously fukking awful, to be sure, but still fukking awful. And you can't even cite legit sources accurately. Those links that you hoped would throw shade on Schiff (no charge for the alliteration) did nothing of the sort.
The only thing "un-American" is how full of shit hypocritical Adam Schiff will say anything, attack anyone, if he thinks it benefits him politically. He's a dick.
What I have noticed is that these liberal idiots have ramped up their call for Trump's impeachment right after Barr testified that he was looking into spying into the Trump campaign, then administration. As many of you have said, they are seriously worried, including Schiff, that the truth is about to come out on them.
They know the democratic party, and the far left wing radical arm of that party, is about to come down. There is no stopping it now.
I doubt anything will come of it. They are all politicians.
You are probably right when it comes to criminal charges, but politically, many of them will probably kiss their sweet jobs as congressmen or Senators goodbye. To many of them, that is worst than a criminal charge.
Power is everything to the liberal base.
This from the party that prevented a president from nominating a supreme court justice based on nothing whatsoever but the raw abuse of power.
No one prevented Obama from nominating a Supreme Court Justice. Obama nominated Merrick Garland; the Senate controlled by Republicans chose never to confirm him- wanting to wait until after the federal elections.
It is called the Biden Rule.
Seems the left only thinks this type of thing should occur when a Republican occupies the WH.
This seed is about Adam Schiff and his hypocrisy, so do not derail it with sour grape comments about a SCOTUS nominee.
NO. Please do not derail this seed with SCOTUS stuff. Thanks.
You all think you are talking about liberals, but I read it and know its all the things Trump and the gop are. Total projection, but good insight about what the right is doing. We see Trump do it all the time too.
The projection from the right, always ever strong, is into hysteria territory today. I see it as the trapped animal response.
What "projection" might that be? Do you claim that Schiff's 2016 and 2019 comments are not true? If so, please state why and provide documented evidence.
Oops! The left got caught again! That is their favorite phrase to used when they are guilty!
It is so hilarious to read comments like this every time a new Shitbag crime gets revealed. It must be some kind of spinal reflex.
All of those "crimes"; and yet no impeachment or prosecution. What the hell are the Dems waiting for?
Yet. You people are always so impatient. "What's taking Mueller so long?!?!?!" And, then it happens and the shit hits the fan and you then shift to "This Mueller Report Should Never Have Happened. WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
Hurry up. Get them new talking points …..
Don't need anything new. This one will do just fine:
The Mueller report didn't do anything but waste tax payer money. You had your investigation by an elite team of Hillary and Obama sycophants; they didn't find evidence to convict. The Establishment hack heir Mueller wrote a report not based on evidence (or lack thereof); he didn't follow the law at all; but left it open for the Dems in the House. Starr at least made a recommendation to Congress to proceed with impeachment proceedings- heir Mueller wouldn't, and couldn't with the evidence he provided.
Unlike the left, we don't like it when branches of the federal government are turned into weapons and used against US citizens. That includes a complete and utter ass like Trump.
What are you so afraid of? Finding out the FISA warrants were illegal and the whole Mueller report was based on a lie?
It bears repeating. Heir Mueller is chicken shit.
You need a crime to obstruct justice; (otherwise Obama would have been impeached for Fast and Furious) but heir Mueller and Co already struck out on the Russian collusion garbage.
He got what he wanted. The hard left Dems in the House and their rabid followers foaming at the mouth to impeach. When they do, and it fails in the Senate he can say I tried. Then when it comes out the FISA warrants are full of shit; and illegally obtained, he can say I never told them to impeach!
Ka-BOOM.
In your wildest wish-filled fantasies only.
What did it prove?
Are the Dems starting impeachment proceedings against Trump? No, they are starting more BS investigations convinced that Mueller missed something, as the chicken shit wouldn't draw any conclusions. Like the House has near the power that Mueller wielded as a special counsel; and could uncover anything further./S
The Republicans are starting investigations into the legality of the FISA warrants; because Mueller didn't turn up shit. Neither Comey, nor Mueller, even bothered to question Carter Page much the less charge him with anything. Page, the master spy that the FBI and CIA knew about for years, and did work for both as an informant. Seems they would have wanted to get Page first and foremost; as he should have the most information. Of course you would have to believe the discredited Steele Dossier to do that; which was paid for by the DNC, and never should have been used in obtaining the FISA warrants.
Guess you like the US more divided than ever? That is the only thing the Mueller report accomplished. The Establishment is loving this; their grip on power has never been more secure.
Exonerate him of what? The crime that Mueller can't conclude from his own report?
Read it very slowly and think about every word, perhaps the light bulb will come one.
It's interesting that Mueller used the word "exonerate" in his report.
Lawyers and anyone who has ever served on a grand jury knows that a prosecutor (in this case Mueller) cannot "exonerate" someone of a crime. That responsibility rests upon judges and/or petit jury panels.
A prosecutor can either indict or not indict based upon the grand jury's decision of True Bill or No True Bill.
Mueller didn't have authority to exonerate Trump. That's what is so unethical and inaccurate about that sentence in the report.
He couldn't conclude that a crime was committed to exonerate Trump from.
All of his twisted wording just made him look like a fool and an unethical lawyer.
He should be barred.
Some claim that Mueller's twisted wording opened the Dems' gateway to impeachment proceedings. Time will tell.
Speaking of unethical lawyers ... has Adam Schiff produced his "evidence" yet?
How many people fell for the lying? And people try to tell me there is no such thing as TDS!
So Mueller's exoneration of Trump on conspiracy is null and void. Got ya...
Mueller actually left the door open for other forms of legal proceedings against Trump, as this position does not allow him to do to a sitting President. And that is what some people choose to over look. And the Repubs readily deny.
And while the fat man may keep talking, the Fat Lady has not sung yet.
JMOO
As a prosecutor, Mueller never had authority to exonerate Trump and should never have used that word in his report, especially since he found no crime.
I posted a comment about prosecutors, grand juries, etc. Please read it ... or not. Your choice.
Period.
because our legal system operates in the dark? LOL too funny,
shiff must be some kind of communist wannabe douche bag.
