The controversy stems from Schiff’s time in the U.S. House, where he served first as ranking member and later as chairman of the House Intelligence Committee during the Trump–Russia investigation.
According to the whistleblower, who worked for Democrats on the committee for more than a decade, Schiff authorized the leaking of classified intelligence to the media to damage President Donald Trump.
The whistleblower told the FBI that during an all-staff meeting in 2017, Schiff explicitly said “the group would leak classified information which was derogatory to President of the United States Donald J. Trump” and that the material “would be used to indict President Trump.”
When the whistleblower objected, calling the plan “unethical and possibly treasonous,” others allegedly reassured him the leaks would never be traced back.
Thank you for the summary! To go one step further, wasn't this classified intel also fabricated? I don't think that's something the whistleblower would have known, but wasn't it?
I do hope this rabid nutcase of a demon is in custody before the end of the month.
