During an appearance on MSNBC on Friday, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, proclaimed the Department of Justice investigation headed by U.S. Attorney John Durham into the origins of allegations of Russia collusion with the 2016 Trump campaign to be an effort from Attorney General William Barr to “persecute” political enemies....Bill Barr’s use of the department as a sword, instead of just as a shield.

Really, Shifter? Kind like how you were using the House judiciary committee as a sword during your little impeachment charade?

Neither Barr or Durham has done anything for 2 years. Clinesmith pleaded guilty to altering an email. Clinesmith's attorney negotiated a deal, and Durham took no action whatsoever in the affair. Clinesmith was, or is an attorney with the DOJ, an apolitical position--or was it? Clinesmith's actions and internet postings indicate that he was very political. Certainly any actions against former FBI employees would not be political. The FBI is non-political, they say. If the DOJ did prosecute politicians, Schiff has a whole list of felonies of false charges and prosecutions that would seem to be clear violations of the law---but our Average Guy will do nothing, not even a speech.

I found it painful to read Schiff accuse the Trump DOJ of being political, without a shred of evidence, for investigating the Obama DOJ and FBI for their blatant political actions, supported with loads of factual evidence,
Schiff is a proven liar and nothing but a political activist with a lot to answer for regarding his own actions.

Again...Democrat projection. Whatever they accuse the Republicans of doing is exactly what the Democrats have done, are doing, or want to do themselves. Always.

Rep. bull Schiff has been using his office against his political opponents, and abused the office by hiding the 53 individual House Intel hearing transcripts where people like Clapper, Rice and Samantha Powers testified under oath they did not find any Russian collusion.

Schiff is a Democrat . He approves of killing children. His disrespect of the secular law and of morality is clearly; Orange man Bad.

When Schiff-for-brains used his position as chair of the House Intelligence Committee to purportedly read from a classified transcript of the President's conversation with the Ukraine President, he made up a dialogue that belonged in a 1940's gangster film. That was more than a year ago. Why is this twit not out of a job?

Adam is running for reelection November 3. His primary numbers were not the sweep that he’d pulled off in the past. But he is a Jew running in a largely Jewish district. It will be interesting to see what happens this time. The only things he’s done - the failed impeachment and thrashing around like this article and his being outed as a serial liar - are hardly good campaign material.

Re #9, I should have included that Schiff panders shamelessly to the large Armenian population in Glendale, which makes up a large part of his district.

Stupid analogy. No one has ever won a war being on defense only.
One cant enforce the law without exercising, well, force.

In the immortal words from the McCarthy hearings, "Have you no shame, Mr. Schiff?"

'Off with his head', cries the Red Queen. Maybe Shiftless should have fallen on his first.

Adam Schiff has the worst case of the blah, blah, blahs of any democrat I can remember. And that is stiff competition.
He thinks he's erudite when he's really just full of it.

"Sword instead of a shield," huh. Let's talk about Eric Holder and Loretta Lynch then.

If that were true, Schiffty, your head would be in a gutter somewhere, not on the end of your pencil neck.
And the only thing that the DOJ is acting even as a shield for is YOUR corrupt Deep State.
Kabuki theater is all that is going on here.

one big arrest and prosecution by Barr's DOJ and the whole mess of them will be dialing the "get me a deal" line at the DOJ. that's all it will take.

If that were true, Schiff would be housed in Gitmo right now.

If I remember the image of justice, it is a blindfolded lady, standing with arms outstretched, scales in one hand, sword in the other. No shield in sight. I doubt Mr. Schiff ever thinks of justice much.
