The hysterical hyperbole from Schiff (and most Liberals)is a new weapon they hope to employ to keep all the crime and corruption and despotism originating in the halls of government, a secret from we little people whom they fear will react unfavorably to such revelations.
Therefore no evidence of government being used as a political weapon against enemies of the Oligarchy should ever see the light of day - because - according to Schiff and Co. why..... the rednecks in Flyover Country might bomb government buildings and put at risk, Alphabet Agents.
Of course you have to remember that these are the same morons who would have us believe that if we dare report the truth about the genocidal-terrorist nature of Jihadist Islam, we will incite another 9-11. Therefore they insist we should shut up and be silent about what we all know is the truth - because, we cannot provoke anyone.
Or, as has been suggested - it's preparing the future ground for hoped-for charges levied against anything that risks these corrupt institutions.
On the other hand, The Intolerable Acts led to the Tea Act which led directly to the Boston Tea Party which led directly to the Shot fired at Lexington Green which led directly to the Declaration of Independence.
So I guess it is possible these corrupt despots have every reason to fear a liberty-minded people losing trust and respect for the institutions they run.
We can laugh at them, but I prefer that those in the halls of power and government be scared shitless of us.
