The Mueller report hasn’t even been released yet and Adam Schiff is already threatening to sue the DOJ over it’s release:
Here’s more via CNS News:
Even before Special Counsel Robert Mueller sends his Trump-Russia report to Attorney General William Barr, members of Congress are fighting to get a look at it.
Leading the charge is Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), the new chairman of the House intelligence committee, who insists that Mueller’s report be released not only to Congress but to the public, even though the rules governing special counsels don’t guarantee such a release.
“Bill Barr has committed in his testimony to making as much of the report public as he can,” Schiff told ABC’s “This Week.” “And the regulations allow him to make it all (public). We’re going to insist on it becoming public.”
And what if Barr doesn’t release the full report?
Well, we will obviously subpoena the report, we will bring Bob Mueller in to testify before Congress, we will take it to court if necessary," Schiff said. "And in the end, I think the Department understands they're going to have to make this public. I think Barr will ultimately understand that as well.Barr comes into this job with two strikes against him. He applied for the job by be demonstrating a bias against the Mueller investigation. Indeed that's part of the reason he was hired. He's also not been willing to commit to following the advice of the ethics lawyers. Indeed that was part of the reason he was hired.
If he were try to withhold, to try to bury any part of this report, that will be his legacy and it will be a tarnished legacy. So I think there'll be immense pressure not only on the department, but on the attorney general to be forthcoming.
Schiff vowed that he will get to the bottom of the “collusion” he believes is evident: “We are going to share this information with the public, and if the president is serious about all of his claims of exoneration, then he should welcome the publication of this report.”
George Stephanopoulos went on to ask Schiff if has evidence of collusion with Russia, and of course he said there was plenty of evidence the campaign colluded.
But that isn’t true.
The Senate Intel Committee said they have zero evidence of collusion, but somehow Schiff has it all? C’mon. Schiff lies and conflates. That’s all this is.
As to the preemptive threats from Schiff, well it just goes to show you how ridiculous Democrats have become, that they would suggest that the new Attorney General would actually bury evidence of collusion or wrongdoing just to protect Trump.
Schiff for Brains
Is it me, or does anyone else think his eyes scream “psycopath”?
This posturing is nothing but early campaigning for the 2020 election.
I think he is trying to “out do” Schumer for Camera Time…
Mr. “I have evidence of the conspiracy” has morphed from “you cannot declassify those documents because they are a threat to national security”; to “I will sue to have all documents released and the report declassified.” Does he listen to himself? Do his lemmings?
Clearly, nearly three years of investigation is just not enough.
Kinda like Al Gore in 2000, insisting that recounts of the election continue until he wins.
I wonder if they understand that this could all back fire on them?? If there is nothing noteworthy in the report, they will look like fools big time. Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of people.
Okay so the idiot is going to sue for collusion that might happen but hasn’t happened yet and of which there is zero evidence?
Do they have special love of the simpleminded in California? OMG was I actually stupid enough to ask that question?
Schiff knows that there was no actionable evidence of collusion. Schiff knows that there were many little curiosities that Mueller’s team explored that ended up leading nowhere.
Schiff’s mission at this point is to turn those curiosities into endless talking points and House hearings – without ever admitting that they led (and will lead) nowhere.
Of COURSE you will (sue, subpoena, question, repeat…) because this $***show was NEVER about confirming that Trump did NOT “collude with Russia,” but rather was all about undermining and ham-stringing a duly elected President.
Everyone on here knows how I feel about the Schmuck-In-Chief, but my personal feelings toward him doesn’t change the fact that the Democrats conspired with the DOJ (FBI and CIA) and had willing co-conspirators in the News Media to purport and advance these LIES to attempt to either A) force a sitting President to willfully leave office, B) coerce members of his own Cabinet to invoke the 25th amendment, or C) use the Special Counsel to “fish for crimes” rather than investigate a pre-determined crime.
And I still am stunned that Obama, Valerie Jarred and his cohorts, as well as Hillary Clinton and the DNC continue to get a Pass when this plan was OBVIOUSLY concocted in Obama’s Oval Office.
That’s right I SAID IT. NO WAY this Plan was NOT concocted without not only Obama’s knowledge, but personal intervention because only then President Obama could coordinate HIS Department of Justice to open the investigation using the PHONEY Steele Dossier to obtain MULTIPLE FISA warrants.
Is the active member, and trusted member designation based upon the number of comments you posted?
Yes
What do the numbers to the right of posting names mean? Is that the order in which members signed up?
Beats the heck out of me. Has something to do with posting to the clipboard.
What’s the clipboard?
Good question. I tried looking for it, but didn’t find anything.
It gives you a link that you can share in other comments, on Facebook, on Twitter, etc. The link goes back directly to that comment.
Thank you. 🙂
If you click the little share icon, you can share the comment directly to Twitter or Google Plus or a couple others I never heard of. So I guess the point of the link on that number is to give you a link you can paste on any other system you want.
I guess it’s nice to know you have the option. Could be useful in replying to one person with a comment you already made to someone else?
Schiff has a secret tax-payer funded payout to someone he sexually assaulted. He wants all the secrets exposed, let see what the deal was with him cornering a young male aid in the bathroom.
The people deserve to know.
He’s a homo? Can’t say that I’m surprised.
Hey, get with the program already. 😮 Schiff is a Democrat. Those details of sexual harassment are reserved only for Republicans like Larry Craig, who had a “wide stance.”
I haven’t figured this new system out yet……testing, testing.
Maybe I’m just too old for this stuff.
If I’m starting to get the hang of it, you shouldn’t have much of a problem
Have you figured out how to get emails on responses to only your comments?
I learned how to get replies through email from Doc earlier today. Just click on the bell to the left of Post Comment before you post your comment. I’ve gotten all the notifications of replies to my comments.
Thanks, pine… er, Scope.
Haha. I was hoping to only have the “formerly pinecone” there for a little while so I wasn’t appearing to hide and post as someone else. It doesn’t seem that I will ever be able to change that. Scope is actually a form of my real name. 😉
Yeah, I noticed that the screen name can’t be changed. Good thing that I’m happy with mine. I also noticed a spot for a nickname, I’m going to check it out.
Poop, I was hoping to morph my screen name to something else over time. Well that’s unfortunate.
It looks like you can set a nickname, then set an option to display either your nickname or your username. I’m trying to figure out how well it works.
It does work. Below just as a test I changed my option to use my nickname Scope. It posted as Scope. Then I changed it back to Scope formerly pinecone. After about a week or so I will change my posting name to my nickname.
I just changed my nickname to Scope, so we shall see if that name will be displayed when I post this.
OK, so you can change what name you post as but the username cannot be changed.
Good, thanks.
You can display your nickname
I just want to know, how will be notified of a removed comment – ha
It just won’t be there anymore? 🙂
Profound.
🙂
Gino! Welcome to your new comment system. Where’s your “mod” badge?
Thanks ttt. “Mod” badge? Beats me.
You’re only as old as you feel Gino. (Some days I could give Methuselah a run for his money.)
Seriously, what would be do without out our Gino?
Thanks Marge, you’re sweet. I just lately mastered the pager, I’ll catch up
just will take some time, I’m pretty much a computer illiterate. High tech
when I was young was a 45RPM record player that you could stack several
45s on.
Full-Of-Schiff will continue to push this narrative, even if the audience turns deaf.
It’s hard to believe that anyone pays any attention to that idiot.
Mueller will be described as a part of a MAGA Conspiracy when his report finds no collusion. Then an investigation will be opened to investigate the investigation and the investigators…. It’ll never end. If we could stop paying all of the lawyers for endless investigations, we could afford to work on important issues, like cow farts. *eyeroll*
I really do hope the full report is released. It will be so full of legalize and reads like stereo instructions. It would take 3 weeks to read and understand it all because of the plot holes in the narrative.
But think of the spin because only lawyers would understand. CNN and MSNBC would have a field day.
Adam has a few problems of his own…………meeting with Glenn Simpson and leaking to the media. I hope Barr goes after him for one or both of them. He was also involved with Ed Buck, the Hollywood donor, who had two dead men found in his apartment. Adam is dirty and he knows it.
Wouldn’t that be novel to see some of the actual criminals go to prison for a change?
If Barr does his job we will definitely see it.
Let’s hope so. But as usual, I’m not going to hold my breath. It sucks to have so little confidence in our system.
Well, the left convinced their followers that Trump is a Russian agent so of course they have to keep up the farce. Just like they do with the global warming hoax.
But what does Adam’s brother Jack know?
NICE!
Or jack’s ex wife….noe
Now than married a sherlock and took a hyphenated name
Noe shift-sherlock
Ha!
Same as Adam……….nuttin!
It’s always the white trash that abuse their power.
Al Sharpton was unavailable for comment.
Power hungry abusers come in all colors, both genders and every ethnicity. History is loaded with them.
Hence my reply.
If you say something “collusion” often enough people will believe it. Is it possible for them to say it too much so that people stop believing it.
I despise that man.
They’re not going to be happy. If it does get released, and there’s nothing in it, Schiff for brains, is going to say that Trump/Barr tampered with the investigation.
So when will the investigation into Schitt for brains commence as to his collusion with Glenn Simpson from Fusion GPS at least once in Colorado, and likely more often?
Has anyone ever noticed that the look in this idiots eyes often are similar to some police booking photos from those who are obviously mentally ill, or just plain evil?
The further Left the more the eyes bulge. Look at Pelosi and AOC.
Excellent observation, especially with AOC.
Not offhand, but I’ll keep an eye out for it.
😆
Adam “Full of” Schiff should testify before Congress and explain why he met with Fusion GPS’ Glenn Simpson and RECUSE himself from anything having to do with the Russia-Trump HOAX.
This schmuck has the audacity to be involved in something he likely plotted with the rest of the Obama Deep State?
They stay on offense to keep the opposition off balance.
I don’t think it’s working anymore, Doc. They’re doing it to keep the left-wing base, NTs and MSM energized…
Could be both.
I’d rather see him in front of a grand jury,
That would be true justice, SJ.
