In researching this column, I Googled Representative Adam Bennet Schiff, (D-Ca.) and got page after page of hero worship by the media; to sum up the coverage in a few words, “God-like.” Those who openly criticize our President for lying forget Representative Schiff’s open and frequent lies.

Remember his statement made on at least a dozen television news shows that he had seen irrefutable and conclusive evidence that the President was a paid agent of the Russians? I was puzzled as to why a billionaire would need or want to take money from the Russians. Folks, you can’t make this stuff up.

Schiff stated that he knew for a fact the Mueller Report would prove the President worked hand in hand, colluding with the Russians to steal the election; it never did. Interesting that in dozens of Google links, no one mentioned that. Is it news or politically correct news? No need to answer.

Lead House impeachment manager Rep. Adam Schiff said he doesn’t think he made an unforced error during his closing arguments when he referred to an anonymous threat that the White House reportedly made to Senate Republicans to put their “head on a pike” if they voted against Trump in the impeachment trial. Representative Schiff stated twice that he did not know if it was true that the “White House” even said it, but…. It is like someone saying, “I do not know if it is true or not but (insert your name here) it was said is a pedophile, rapist and beats his dog. I have no proof, but the charges are of heinous behavior.” No proof necessary, the allegation is enough to ruin you.

Representative Schiff said he was struck by the fact that “We’re talking about a President who would make himself a monarch.” So, where did that come from? Who cares, it is red meat for the left.

He is a dictator,” said Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.). “And that is another reason he must be removed from office.” The irony is that the Democratic House Managers joke they want to be able to overrule the Supreme Court; that, coupled with the charge against our President of obstruction of Congress, would make the House a body that cannot be balanced by the executive and judicial branches of our government.

“How often do you get the chance to overrule the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court?” Schiff said. “You have to admit, it is every legislator’s dream.” To do away with our system of divided government is “every legislators dream”? Really? To make a bad joke out of the American Constitution is not humorous, but who cares?

Representative Schiff is a media deity who can’t be criticized. Not since President Clinton post-impeachment have I seen the media bend a knee and kiss the ring of a politician as they have with Mr. Schiff.

Representative Schiff also stated that the President had enabled the Russian Federation to conquer Eastern/Western Europe at its pleasure. Just how that works is beyond common sense, but who cares? It sounds good. The Russians could nuke all of Europe and wait for the radiation to decay. But short of that, using conventional weapons, they just do not have the airlift or ground transport to supply an Army over the distances required nor the needed repair parts, fuel, rations, munitions or strength.

Oh, the two FISA warrants that started all of this were declared invalid by the court last Thursday. Lies, along with data critical to the warrants were withheld from the court, which is a felony; can we say deep state? Did you see that one on the news? Probably not, as it shoots the left’s case in its fourth point of contact (an Airborne term for butt).

Those who signed the affidavit for the FISA warrant committed perjury, pure and simple, and they need to be held to account. But will they? Not in the media. Having the FBI, NSA, CIA and others lying to a federal court to get a warrant to spy on Americans must not be a big deal to the fourth estate. If this does not concern you it should, a lot.
