Adam Schiff Sends Trump Into A Panic With One Sentence

[ffr]

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) sent the White House into a panic by telling reports that Michael Cohen answered all of their questions in the closed-door session.

Schiff was asked if there were any questions that Cohen refused to answer or help with.

The chairman of the House Intelligence Committee answered, “He was fully cooperative and answered all of our questions.

6. Schiff has a very understated sense of humor

he knows that sent Corporal Bone Spurs into the throne room.

[Haggis for Breakfast]

7. Hee hee hee !

Probably the best laxative he's had in a long time !

[BigmanPigman]

8. I bet the Dems were glad that the majority of GOP reps left

since there were no news cameras there. They were not even asking Cohen questions yesterday. All they wanted to do was discredit him for their fans/cult back home in their deep red states. I bet they will make another grandstanding appearance on March 14th when the cameras are turned on again. All those white, mange-haired men with southern accents have two weeks to try to find a decent barber.

17. they left today's session??

Wow.

That seems risky.

[BigmanPigman]

20. Yep, Dem Rep Maloney told Chris Hayes

that a lot were not there when it started and a lot left during the course of the day, not returning. They only want to grandstand for the racist cult and the fucking moron in front of TV cameras. I am not surprised...all talk and no substance.

[calimary]

28. Well okay then! Good! Let the Dems have it all to themselves.

Who needs ‘em, anyway? They’re just gonna howl and grandstand and try to show off for Pox Noise. Fuck ‘em. Let OUR team own the room.

Besides, that’s what we all worked so hard to achieve in last November’s midterms.

The CONS have NOTHING to say that interests me. NOTHING. Except maybe announcing a resignation or a denouncement of their “god” trump. But even then it’d be difficult for me to believe.

Fuck ‘em. Just fuck ‘em. Fuck ‘em ALL.

[BigmanPigman]

31. Ditto!

It makes for a better experience for all who attend if the GOP hecklers bail on it to go do the Incel Dance at CPAC.

33. You turned my day

calimary you made me laugh just after the IRS almost gave me a heart attack.

I got mail meant for someone else and opened and started to read it before reading the intended's name.

[calimary]

42. Welcome to DU, bobnicewander!

Glad I could help!

[smb]

37. Idiots

Putting it in purely tactical terms, it was stupid of them to not show up -- if they had, they might have prevented some key question from being asked simply by wasting time. They can't even be bothered to do that if they don't get to show off for their rubes.

Or maybe they think their Mango Messiah is big-red-capital-Superman-"S" screwed anyway so there's no point putting forth any extra effort on his behalf.

9. The orange maggot is on hannity tonight and hannity is licking his balls

So to be crude, oh my!

poor little donnie being attacked by the mean democrats and those terrible intelligence agencies attacking him. Wah! Wah ! Says the little baby!

29. Flimmity-Flammity wil also be making an appearance soon, but not on his own shit-show.

10. I must say that at this crucial time in history we have a dream team working for us. nt

[EveHammond13]

11. THANK YOU BLUE WAVE. thank you all candidates, local parties and volunteers who worked so hard

[RayStar]

30. YES!

It warms my heart.

[NastyRiffraff]

32. We did it!

We all did it. We put aside our differences, worked hard, and got out the vote. There are Democrats in the House whom I disagree with often, but I'm glad every one of them are there.

12. Adam Schiff has some of those Obama qualities that I really admire.

He's smart, remains cool under pressure, has a quiet dignity while exuding authority and competence and yes, a sense of humor.

[bdamomma]

13. Adam Schiff

a true patriot.

[zentrum]

14. Cohen and family

...need body guards. Is that being provided?

[Grasswire2]

19. I'm sure that's so. nt

[Farmer-Rick]

21. Noticed a clip where Cohen was being escorted, he had at least 6 police surrounding him.

No telling how many plain clothes agents were around. At first I thought it was overkill to keep Cohen from escaping. Then it dawned on me they were there to protect him not keep him in place.

[smb]

38. Where Would Cohen Escape To?

His face has been all over the media, and I doubt he's rich enough to have an emergency stash that would enable him to live out the rest of his life in some extradition-proof jurisdiction.

[Farmer-Rick]

40. True that.

It's just where my mind went first until I engaged logic and reason.

[workinclasszero]

15. The truth shall set us free!

[Honeycombe8]

16. Thank God we have Schiff.

What a heavy load he has been carrying.

When the movies in the future are made about these Trump years, they better have Schiff front and center. Because he's been a hero, as far as I'm concerned.

[Grasswire2]

18. the sight of those four Dems standing there in that moment was really heartening to me.

Look at them! Solid, thoughtful, super smart! DEMOCRATS!

I was proud to see them shoulder to shoulder.

[Mendocino]

22. Adam Schiff is

everything that Trump is not; intelligent, well mannered, passionate, insightful, plus he's vegan and a marathon runner.

[GetRidOfThem]

23. I hear of loud breaking of toilets in the White House!

Sh*tting bricks....

[smb]

39. SoThat's How He'll Build The Wall! nt

[GetRidOfThem]

41. LOL! n/t

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

24. Second terrifying sentence: "We're having Cohen back."

[GP6971]

26. And I thought I heard

that it would be an open session, not closed.

[sheshe2]

27. I sure hope so!

[Enoki33]

25. I know many here have said it before, but when all the dirt has been finally

exposed, and it will, it is going to be much worse than we imagined. The crime family will face their day of reckoning. Don’t be surprised if we also find out from CI that the criminal cabal have also monetized state secrets. They are part of a trans national crime syndicate whose only allegiance is to money and power.

[magicarpet]

34. RICO charges are coming. The criminality of Team trDump of astounding....

.... once all the evidence is placed on the table,... it will be a Mafia trial with RICO charges to claw back trDump's vast holdings and finally shut the criminal enterprise down for good.

Actually it is shameful that the system did not work properly to recognize and shut this thug down years and years ago. It should have never taken this long,.. he should never have been given the opportunity to cause this country such extensive harm or inflicted such damage.

Fascists become complacent and look the other way all too often. Fascism blossoms then explodes onto the political landscape while Democracy is marginalized and then entirely smothered. Then Fascism as they intended wins the day,.. before most even begin to realize Authoritarians have taken over the reigns of power.

Let's hope we caught this in time to right this ship of state and get things on a better charted course and politically headed in a more healthy direction.

[DFW]

35. As long as those questions are not made public

Schiff could have restricted his questions to what kind of pizza toppings Cohen preferred.

As long as Trump doesn't know, he'll have sleepless nights wondering.

Good

Good!
