On Thursday, Sen. Adam “Shifty” Schiff, a California Democrat, showed up outside FBI headquarters in D.C. in a very desperate last-ditch effort to prevent the confirmation of Kash Patel as the bureau’s new director. He only embarrassed himself however, completely failing to accomplish his mission.
In what is being called a near party-line vote, the Senate confirmed Patel as the new head of the FBI. There were only two members of the GOP who voted against him, Sens. Susan Collins from Maine and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska.
Before the vote took place, Schiff, along with six other Democrats, congregated outside of the FBI headquarters, where they totally disgraced themselves and provided another batch of reasons why you should never, ever vote for the left again.
“This is someone we cannot trust,” Schiff stated during his attempt to prevent Patel from being successfully confirmed. “This is someone who lacks the character to do this job, someone who lacks the integrity to do this job.”
“Unless this is what Schiff says to the mirror while shaving in the morning, the irony is almost ugly,” a writer for The Western Journal hilariously wrote.
This is a man whose utter lack of integrity and trustworthiness got him booted from the House Intelligence Committee and censured by the House when Republicans regained control of the chamber after the 2022 midterms. (“Integrity matters,” then-House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy noted pointedly in a letter explaining Schiff’s ouster from the committee.)
By then, Schiff had proven to anyone paying attention that he was a stranger to the concept of “integrity.” This was the man, for instance, who insisted while he was head of the House Intelligence Committee that there was evidence “in plain sight” of Trump colluding with Russia — implying that his position had given him knowledge that was not yet public, but soon would be.
Most of you reading this are well aware of the fact that special counsel Robert Mueller conducted a rather lengthy and extremely expensive investigation into the matter and found zero evidence to suggest any sort of collusion between Trump and Russia.
Oh and remember that first impeachment against Trump, which failed spectacularly to secure the two-thirds Senate majority required to convict the president? Schiff was the head prosecutor on that debacle.
The guy fails over and over again. The only way he still has a career is by being a left-wing puppet for powerful progressives. No other explanation will suffice.
Schiff was then part of the Nancy Pelosi-appointed committee to “investigate” the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol incursion, which became little more than a highly publicized vehicle to spread Democratic propaganda against Trump and his supporters by spreading lies to the American public.
Patel himself is no fan of Schiff’s. He’s described the California Democrat as “the worst criminal in Congress in the last 250 years.”
That’s a pretty powerful statement. And now the man who made that statement is head of the FBI. The senator is probably going to “Schiff” his pants once Patel and the bureau start looking for the skeletons in his closet.
