(8,200 posts)I have to add that he has restored my faith that e have an unquenchable faithful protector against the onslaught of a Republican Party that has become an evil detestable blight on the nation. Their hypocrisy is revolting. Nunes is especially revolting and wants to make me vomit.

(23,264 posts)He's just another trumpian scumbag and traitor and i absolutely couln't listen to him. So, i muted him then unmuted the next Dem. After that, I would listen to the start of the repugs questions, if they were not traitorous or cuckoo, I'd listen more - like with Will Hurd. Most of the repugs got muted quickly.

And Adam Schiff is a HUGE part of why that mattered so much.

(64,019 posts)the repigs just spew vomit whenever they talk. Let's move forward and vote them out, or even better let tRump take them over the edge.

(16,616 posts)I love watching him in action, whether it's grilling witnesses or even an impromptu appearance on MSNBC. He and other of his colleagues (Cummings, Nadler, Nancy) give me hope and restore my faith that our system is strong enough to weather this crisis.

(7,220 posts)He's perfectly qualified, even has experience defending the US against...Russian spies!
While an assistant U.S. Attorney, he gained attention by prosecuting a case against Richard Miller, a former FBI agent convicted of "passing secret documents to the Soviet Union in exchange for a promised $65,000 in gold and cash."[5] The first time Miller was tried, it resulted in a hung jury; the second time, it resulted in a conviction overturned on appeal,[6] and the third time he was convicted.

Mr. Ected
(9,676 posts)I've never heard him utter one partisan thing on air. He speaks the truth, he speaks it eloquently, he backs up his statements with undeniable facts, and he pursues justice as if it was the only thing that truly mattered.
He's exactly the kind of man our Founding Fathers expected to populate our halls of Congress.

(6,255 posts)not find everything these documents alleged to represent repugnant to everything you claim to hold dear and swore to protect 13 times?. Just like the lawyer did with McCarthy Hearings. Why cant somebody get up and say Upon reflection I probably should not have sent the report to the White House Counsel or DOJ? What an absurd argument taking the whistleblower complaint to the subject of the complaint. It insults the intelligence.

(10,885 posts)Earlier this year, I was hoping he'd make a run for president, but he's so effective in the House that I'm thrilled to have him working for and with us. In our next Democratic administration, he'd make an excellent Attorney General.

(64,019 posts)you are true patriot.
All of the other committees need some gratitude also:
House Judiciary
House Oversight and Reform
House Ways and Means
House Intelligence
House Financial Services
All are working to uncover the dirty and illegal deeds of this regime.
Thank goodness we got the Dems in 2018.
