From Fox News: California Senator-elect Adam Schiff defended his claims of Russian collusion years later during a recent appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union.”
Host Jake Tapper asked Schiff Sunday about President-elect Donald Trump’s recent controversial cabinet nominations, such as former presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz. Although Tapper referred to these nominees as “disruptors,” he wondered whether there was introspection in Washington over inspiring them.
“You were censured in the House last year for, in their view, holding positions of power during the Trump presidency as chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, and, according to them, ‘abusing this trust by saying there was evidence of collusion between Trump’s campaign and Russia,’” Tapper said. “And I wonder if you are feeling at all, introspective at all, about that was, according to the Mueller report and according to your Republican colleagues, an overstatement? And I wonder if you think, in any way, you helped set the table for these disruptors?”
Defiantly, Schiff responded, “First of all, it wasn’t an overstatement. There is evidence of collusion. The Trump campaign manager was meeting with Russian intelligence and giving them internal polling data, just to give you one example. And the Mueller report sets all this out.”
Tapper pushed back, saying, “It does say, ‘The investigation did not establish that members of the Trump campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities,’ which doesn’t mean that he didn’t, that there weren’t meetings, but they didn’t find evidence of it.”
But Schiff insisted, “Mueller says that, too. He says, ‘The fact that we didn’t find proof beyond a reasonable doubt doesn’t mean there wasn’t evidence of conspiracy or coordination.’”
Adam Schiff was caught lying about Trump’s Russia collusion for years and was censured by the House, a historic punishment
