Wow -- after all Republican members of the House Intel Committee file a letter asking @RepAdamSchiff to resign over Russiagate, Schiff ticks through the major pieces of evidence indicating collusion and says, "you might think it's OK... I don't think that's OK!"

Schiff should say he is not going to resign, instead he will suspend himself indefinitely. Then have AOC come in at assume the chair. She will have the Repubs crying by the end of the day, asking Schiff to come back.

Maybe even after he loses! Barr is in it for the power and he'll even go so far as to piss on the law and the US Constitution!!!

Schiff just needs to ask them, if they are not OK with it, they why are they not doing anything about it? Reel off each point and have a vote to if the congressman believes it is OK or not. Get them on record.
