I know, I know. This is Adam ‘Pencil Neck’ Schiff, one of the biggest liars on Capitol Hill. But what he’s saying right now, after having left a classified briefing, concurs with much of what we’ve learned in the media regarding Biden’s Afghanistan disaster and it is NOT favorable to Biden.
From CNN reporter Ryan Nobles:

Schiff's take was echoed by Intel Committee Member Jason Crow: "I do not believe at this point, sitting here today, that I have any evidence of a intelligence failure," Crow- a Democrat- told @jeremyherb
