Schiffting Diapers

The diapers covering Tump's ass arrived at the house intelligence Committee hearing packing a load of hypocrisy and lies. They raged at Representative Schiff in well practiced fits of faux indignation, accusing Mr. Schiff of making false accusations against the President and calling for Schiff to resign as chairman of the house intelligence committee. In doing so they were parroting the out of tune trumpet blasts of their lier in chief, Donald Trump. And as anyone who has been paying even the slightest attention to what the Republicans have been doing during the last ten years will tell you, they were accusing the Democrats and particularly Mr. Schiff of acting like Republicans.

It is almost unbelievable that anyone could falsely accuse Mr. Schiff of lying and call for his resignation while diaper Devin Nunez is still a member of that committee. You may remember that Devin Nunez was the chairman of the intelligence committee who had supported candidate Donald Trump and was forced to recuse himself from investigations of Trump because Nunez demonstrated that he would rather function as a diaper covering Trump's ass than perform the duties of the committee he chaired. Furthermore, Diaper Devin continued to interfere with the investigation of Trump even after he was supposedly recused. He did this by going after the FBI and others who were investigating Trump, accusing them of being biased and conducting a witch hunt of Trump (not unlike the one diaper Devin was still conducting of Hillary Clinton).

The hypocrisy and incredible stupidity of the charade conducted by Republican members of the intelligence committee was a clear indication that they, Trump's soiled diapers, were in need of some adjusting. So Adam Schiff valiantly tried to administer a shift to them by presenting them with the truth. As Lydia O'Conner reported in the Huffington Post:

Schiff reiterated all the evidence connecting President Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign with Russia after all nine Republicans on the House intelligence committee announced that they’d all signed a letter calling on him to resign as the head of the panel.

You might say that’s all okay,” Schiff said of the evidence he listed. “You might say that’s just what you need to do to win. But I don’t think it’s okay. I think it’s immoral, I think it’s unethical, I think it’s unpatriotic, and yes, I think it’s corrupt.”

In arguing his case Mr Schiff wisely ignored the Barr summery that the Republicans were blowing way out of proportion and questions about the accuracy of that summary. Instead Schiff simply said he trusted Mr. Mueller and he would not refute Mueller's conclusions. But, Schiff added, while the evidence may not rise to a level that would support a criminal charge of conspiracy, it definitely supports a determination that there was collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. And that this collusion and Trumps' fawning over Putin raises a serious concern about whether Trump has been compromised. In fact, Mr. Schiff said the question of whether Trump has been compromised by Russia is one of the things the Intelligence committee must investigate!


I urge everyone to read or better yet to go to one of the television news cites such MSNBC or CNN and listen to Mr. Schiff's reply to the Republicans who call for his resignation. It is bound be considered a classic by future historians who quote it!
