Representative Adam Schiff (D-CA) said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that Congress could not “exclude the possibility” that national security was jeopardized by the handling of President Biden’s classified documents.
Anchor Jonathan Karl asked, “You were on the show just after Attorney General Garland appointed a special counsel in the case of the Trump documents. You said it was the right move. Do you feel the same way about this special counsel?”
Schiff said, “I do think it’s the right move. The attorney general has to make sure that not only is justice evenly applied, but the appearances of justice are also satisfactory to the public, and here, I don’t think he had any choice but to appoint a special counsel. I think that special counsel will do the proper assessment.”
Karl said, “Is it possible that national security was jeopardized here as many, including you, raised that possibility with the Mar-a-Lago documents?”
Schiff said, “I don’t think we can exclude the possibility without knowing more of the facts. We have asked for an assessment in the intelligence community of the Mar-a-Lago documents. I think we ought to get that same assessment to the documents found in the think tank as well as the home of President Biden. I’d like to know what these documents were.”
“ We have asked for an assessment in the intelligence community of the Mar-a-Lago documents. I think we ought to get that same assessment to the documents found in the think tank as well as the home of President Biden. ”
Would that be the same intelligence community that famously (and falsely) declared the Hunter Laptop to be Russian propaganda? THAT intelligence community?
“The attorney general has to make sure that not only is justice evenly applied, but the appearances of justice are also satisfactory to the public…” Wait what?
FAS/FJB
“Get Rid of Biden”
Hardly
When it’s YOUR intelligence community that is doing the investigating, the one that is on your payroll and is compliant with your wishes, it is a safe bet that the outcome is already pre-determined.
“…but the appearances of justice are also satisfactory to the public…”
…he can SAY that, and yet Jill Biden’s underwear drawer still goes unmolested…
“The attorney general has to make sure that not only is justice evenly applied, but the appearances of justice are also satisfactory to the public…”
…not too worried about the appearances of an honest election, tho…
This could be good. It might take getting Cackles in the Oval Office for this country to wake up to the fact that our so called “Democracy” is a sick joke. When the process leads to the person who performed the worst in the primaries being the President something is off the rails.
Dang! The thought of Jill Biden’s underwear drawer made me barf onto my keyboard. Thanks!
When you have shit for brains, schiff had to have been constipated for 50 years
“The attorney general has to make sure that not only is justice evenly applied, but the appearances of justice are also satisfactory to the public … “
well, it ain’t, by a damn sight! the ‘special council’ in the Trump investigation has unlimited scope. whereas the Biden investigation, the ‘special council’ has a very narrow scope.
so, the Biden ‘investigation’ will find nothing more than the Durman ‘investigation’ …. bfd!
… Durham ‘investigation’ …. ffs!
Schiff: “. . .I’d like to know what these documents were.”
Oh boy! I just bet he would.
Encouraging republicans to impeach. Didn’t Bre’r Rabbit encourage some character to throw him into a briar patch using reverse psychology? If your enemy wants you to make a move you ought to think twice about that move oughtn’t you?
They are already using this to further bash Trump. If this forces Biden out, or even to say he won’t run again, the Dems will say that likewise Trump should be out of consideration.
