As Lead Impeachment Manager, Adam Schiff Brings Experience and Controversy

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

WASHINGTON — As a young federal prosecutor in Los Angeles 30 years ago, Adam B. Schiff won the conviction of an F.B.I. agent who was seduced by a Soviet spy and traded secrets for gold and cash — a case, he said then, “of government misconduct and government corruption of the highest and most disturbing order.”

Mr. Schiff is now a 10th-term Democratic House member and the chairman of the Intelligence Committee, and he soon may find himself repeating that sentiment, this time as the lead House manager in the impeachment trial of President Trump.

His selection by Speaker Nancy Pelosi is hardly a surprise. A fellow Californian, Mr. Schiff, 59, first began digging into the accusations that gave rise to the impeachment inquiry when he pushed for the disclosure to Congress of a whistle-blower complaint related to Mr. Trump that the administration was refusing to share.

Once that complaint came out, alleging a scheme by the president to enlist Ukraine to help him in the 2020 election, Mr. Schiff led the investigation that resulted in the president’s impeachment for pressuring Ukraine to investigate his political rivals.

11. Oh, we dont know yet I assume. What we know they want to do is call NO witnesses

that have info and call witnesses like Biden's that have no info.

We are upside down in this country. Can you imagine the office of the Prez ever being respected again no matter who is in it?

Wont be, if a con is in there we cant respect it because they are liars, criminals and traitors...if a dem is in no matter how good they are 40% of this country will hate them for NO reason other than their hatred of all minorities.

We have a RACE war going on and it is not over, not by a long shot.

2. Schiff brings controversy, MSN?

Only if you don't understand how a prosecution works. Adam Schiff is squeaky clean, ultra competent, and conscientious in carrying out his duties. Schiff brings "controversy" only if you believe the self-serving nonsense concocted by the Republicans.

4. yeah what's this "controversy" bullshit?

[unblock]

7. Yeah, what's up he controversy about?

His neck size?

[katmondoo]

13. He is briliant so that makes him a controversy. Are you scared of him Mr. Trump?

[TheBlackAdder]

5. I wonder if Trump's constant attacks on Schiff reinforced he would be selected to bring Trump down.

9. "Schiff Brings Controversy"? They must mean all those times he was attacked by Trump and GOP.

This both sider-ism makes me ill.

I think Schiff has done a remarkably professional job. I can't think of anything he has done that is either "Schiffty" or "Schitty".

Storming the secure Hearing Room, interrupting the proceedings with tantrums and frivolous motions, sneaking to the White House with reports about the evidence, calling opposition members vile and obscene names. Now that's bringing controversy. And all that was done by ONE SIDE, and one side only.

12. As President, Donald Trump Brings No Experience and Controversy

So anyone can write a headline these days!

14. During the impeachment hearings

Mr Schiff made several closing remarks that were quite damning. I think it was the second day of hearings that his closing statements were were to the point and worthy of a movie ending. As if this were only entertainment.
He kept the Republican nonsense to a minimum.
