Secrecy has always been a pretty effective incubator for corruption, and House Intelligence Committee chairman Adam Schiff's sneaky, secretive "hearings" on impeaching the president, literally held in a dank Capitol basement outside public scrutiny, are producing it in abundance.
Schiff's secrecy act thus far not only shuts out the public, but excludes relevant opposition members of Congress from so much as listening to this Schiff show. Congressmen from the "wrong" party, such as Rep. Andy Biggs of Arizona, an interested party with a right to be there as a member of the House Judiciary Committee if anyone does, have just about literally been kicked out.

FTA - "Any witness whose words don't match what Schiff wants to hear in those secret hearings not only gets browbeaten by Schiff, but may get his testimony "purged," effectively becoming the equivalent of a Soviet "non-person."
The Shifter's bullying tactic represents the new face of the dim party. He has handed his opposition (us) a powerful rallying cry - the democrats and Soviet-style communism.

Then we need a federal 'open meetings' law with damn sharp teeth penalties (like loss of your Congressional seat AND retirement benefits) and the will to enforce it. Secret meetings of public officials are forbidden here in Texas.

Read the article posted earlier about an Uyghur who escaped the re-education camps in China. Then it all ties together and makes sense.
Our New Democrat Communist Party.
In these United States of America.
Not in a million years did I think ....

Well that is quite to be expected. The Soviets infiltrated the democrat party long before the fall of the Soviet Union. Since then they have risen to dominance. They don't even hide from their belief in socialism anymore. I suspect they'd still be reluctant to share their connection as a lasting legacy of the Soviets. Either FDR was the most useful of all useful idiots or he was one of them.

The old people who are the Left were young once. If you were 25 in 1969 you're 75 today. Those 25 year olds who were part of the SDS/Weathermen (Bill Ayers, Obamas mentor and non-convicted murderer etc) were infiltrated by the FBI and recorded. The plan was overthrow of the government and a new order put into place. From the tapes, members stated there would be people who just would not go along (deplorables?). There numbers were said to be about 10%, of 200 million Americans. What will we do with them? Liquidate them. Their words, not mine. 20 million sounds extreme until you realize its the norm for a communist regime. They are the democrat leadership now and they see what was once their natural progression of attaining full power falling away and are very desperate

I just saw a picture of Lavrentiy Beria (Stalin's secret police head and the author of the infamous "Show me the man and I'll show you the crime" quote).
He sure looks a lot like Adam Schiff. Maybe if we spend a few bucks at Ancestry.com, we'll find they are in the same family tree. Obviously the political relationship is valid.

Just like Nasty Pelousy ran the 0bamascare planning meetings - she literally had the lock changed on the meeting room door to keep the Republicans out. I suggest that the Republicans simple have the meeting room door, where Schiffhead is holding his little scam, and all of its hardware removed. If he changes rooms, do it again.

I get a kick out of Adam Schiffty every time he does another of his dishonest, sneaky, pathetic maneuvers. He is the epitome of a gutless ride-along. He is everything that a congressman should NOT be. I tend to believe that his dishonest, unwarranted pursuit of President Trump will cost the democrats the next election, and he KNOWS it! He is establishing the ground work for a never-ending campaign against President Trump and the rest of the nation. I don't believe that he cares one plug nickel for America, its people, its institutions, and its History. He cares about Adam Schiff! He represents everything that is EVIL in this nation.

These hearings are not legitimate. Any finding they would have will not be accepted.

Since they are Communist wannabes why not do things the Communist way? We know that failure is inevitable but why should we put up with the charade in the meantime? In the past, treason and sedition were dealt with harshly. Why are the Republicans insisting on being gentlemen (cowards) in the face of blatant lawbreaking by crazy people? If you hand-wringers need some good ex-military contractors to come to Washington to do your jobs for you just ask.

The same Democrats who are always demanding "Transparency".

They should call it a Nazi impeachment rather than a Soviet one. The left obviously has no problem with anything that resembles a Soviet whatever.

What Schiff has created are the first Deepfake hearings in our history. Deepfakes are video images that are altered by artificial intelligence to alter the reality of the original without being detected. From Wikipedia:
Deepfake (a portmanteau of "deep learning" and "fake"[1]) is a technique for human image synthesis based on artificial intelligence. It is used to combine and superimpose existing images and videos onto source images or videos using a machine learning technique known as generative adversarial network.[2] Because of these capabilities, deepfakes have been used to create fake celebrity pornographic videos or revenge porn.[3] Deepfakes can also be used to create fake news and malicious hoaxes.
We should start calling these Deefake hearings.

When the House is returned to the Republicans in 2020, Schiffty, Nadless, and others should be sanctioned for their actions. Their offices should be moved to the basement rooms they are using and no Republican should talk with them or meet with them. They should be shunned for corrupting the process of the House.

If they can do this to the president they can do it to you - and they will when they get in office. Nothing is off the table what damage they Democrats will to to our freedoms - nothing.

Calling Adam Schiff's secretive Star Chamber "hearings" on impeaching President Trump "Soviet Style" accords them an undeserved degree of respectability. Even Stalin's purge trials had more transparency than this Democrat travesty! The constant stream of "leaks" from these allegedly "secret hearings" have proved to be slanderous fabrications.
Every last one of these Democrats needs to be voted out of office.

FTA … She's specifically protecting her moderate flank from fallout by the voters in purple districts, knowing very well that impeachment is unpopular with them and they'll boot those representatives from the House if they go on record to join the crazies.
Boot them anyway. I don't hear any of them objecting to this ridiculous BS.

We should stop referring to this farce as an "impeachement investigation" and instead call it the "impeachment inquisition" as in in the Spanish Inquisition whose tactics they are employing.

They're not demonrats. They're full blown communists following the communist doctrine. This is what's in store for this country if they're not removed from office. Voters: Do your job and get rid of them, especially all of those that Piglousi is protecting by not holding a vote.

This whole Schiff-show is unconstitutional and anyone who doesn't see that is living in a bubble. If they get away with doing this to President Trump, they can get away to doing it to ANYONE. Scary thought, indeed.
