Would anybody here like to see Adam Schiff appointed to VP-elect Harris' Senate Seat?

[NNadir]

Just asking.

[meadowlander]

1. He has a lot of work to do in the House.

Unless we win the Senate, it's going to be 2-4 more years of gridlock. We need Schiff where he can actually accomplish something.

[Captain Zero]

37. Schiff, Attorney General. Give him full independence to root out the last 4 years of

Trump Executive Branch Corruption.
Let him repair counter-intelligence and Fascist proof it with new DOJ procedures.

[Dream Girl]

2. Should be a woman

[grobertj]

6. +1

[kwolf68]

18. Or maybe the most qualified???

Just a thought.

[Dream Girl]

23. That goes with out saying.

Why would you even go their? Plenty of qualified women and men. That’s the first filter.

[House of Roberts]

3. Katie Porter

[RANDYWILDMAN]

17. ++++1000

love Katie Porter

[bullimiami]

4. didnt think of that. why yes that would be nice.

[lisa58]

5. Congresswoman Karen Bass

[RockRaven]

7. I think we need him as HPSCI chair for one term with a cooperative executive branch

because there's a lot of shit which Trump was stonewalling them on. Stuff that really needs to be properly investigated and remedied.

I'd vote for him when DiFi's seat is next open though.

[leftieNanner]

8. He would make a wonderful Senator

But I like him as Chair of the House Intelligence Committee. He has a lot of work to do starting in January.

Xavier Becerra - California AG - is another option.

[ProfessorGAC]

9. No, Despite It Being A Fine Idea

I think he's a likely candidate to be the dems' next leader. If Nancy steps down as speaker, Adam is likely next SoH.
If he goes to the Senate, he is a rookie in the minority party. (Assuming Georgia doesn't go the way we hope.)
He's got more clout where he is.

[NNadir]

24. I have thought of him as an excellent choice for speaker if Nancy steps down...

...but I also love his eloquence and sharp justice driven mind, coupled with some righteous and appropriate but controlled anger.

I just want to see more of him.

I have no dog to hunt in this, and really no right to comment, since I'm merely an ex-Californian. When I was there Randy Cunningham, who may or may not be in jail, was my Congressperson. Ick! I also lived there when Deukmejian and Wilson were Governors, and even, briefly, when Reagan was Governor. I had the pleasure of voting for Jerry Brown in his first Governorship.

I used to think of California as a very right wing state, especially when I lived in San Diego, and I'm very pleased that people like Schiff and Harris and Porter represent modern California. It gives me hope for other states.

[ProfessorGAC]

28. Especially Porter

She flipped a red seat in freaking Orange County.
And she got reelected by over 7%, this week.

[NNadir]

29. Yeah, that's amazing. When I lived in California Hermann Goering would have won an election...

...in Orange County. I tried never to get out of my car there, except to pee at the rest area on Interstate 5.

[Pantagruel]

10. Swallwell, Katie Porter

or Schiff are great choices.

[Sneederbunk]

11. Yes, definitely. Most worthy and qualified.

[sop]

12. Adam Schiff for AG.

[Chili]

16. my answer was going to be NO...

We need him in the House.

But as AG - hey now! I like that! Is he qualified?

[llashram]

13. sure

why not, if he wants it

[ananda]

14. I like Katie Porter for Senate and Schiff for AG.

imo

[uponit7771]

21. +1,

[Roisin Ni Fiachra]

31. +another

[SheltieLover]

34. +1

Me too!

[Captain Zero]

39. +4

Schiff AG
Porter in the Senate

[SheltieLover]

40. But another thread, I read Schiff

Is being groomed for Speaker.

I just want a ferocious bulldog AG to investigate, prosecute & seize all traitors' assets. Every. Single. One.

Schiff has a brilliant legal mind!

[Under The Radar]

15. Why Not Speaker of the House?

Not knocking Nancy but she said limited herself I believe.

[xmas74]

22. I think he's one of a few already being groomed

For SoH

[Xolodno]

19. Not a bad idea.

Recollect that he was interested in the Senate at one point. And I believe Newsom is eying DiFi's seat.

[rogue emissary]

20. I love him but that seat needs to go to a black woman.

With only two black men the Senate needs to be way more diverse.

[Me.]

25. I Like Him Where He Is

He's fatastic

[GemDigger]

26. AG Unless he wants something else.

[tarheelsunc]

27. He would be a great Attorney General. eom

[Indykatie]

30. NO. Replacing a WOC with a White Male Ignores The Party's Diversity

I think we have enough White men in the Senate. Everyone talks about Black women being the backbone of the Dem party yet we are barely represented in higher political office or the Courts. If Feinstein retires Schiff can run for that seat if he's interested in being a Senator.

[NNadir]

33. Well, I agree that women, including of course, those of color, have saved this country, for sure.

Who in California do you see fitting the bill?

[shanti]

32. Not my first choice

but I am thinking it might be Karen Bass.

[treestar]

35. OK if his seat is a safe one

He did do a great job.

[Rice4VP]

36. No. I want it to be a woman

[blm]

38. Cali has a lot of choice picks. Porter, Bass, Lieu

Swalwell.....just so many.
