Schiff Directing Witnesses Not To Answer GOP Questions
The Federalist, Oct 29, 2019, Tristan Justice

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., who is overseeing the ongoing illegitimate impeachment inquiry set in motion by Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., is reportedly telling witnesses testifying not to answer questions asked by Republican lawmakers.

Speaking to reporters on Capitol Hill, House Minority Whip Steve Scalise, R-La., slammed the hidden process claiming Schiff was instructing witnesses testifying behind the closed doors of the SCIF not to answer questions asked by Republican members.

“He’s directing witnesses not to answer questions that he doesn’t want the witness to answer if they’re asked by Republicans,” Scalise charged. “He’s not cut off one Democrat. He’s not interrupted one Democrat and told a witness not to answer Democrat members’ questions but today he started telling witnesses not to answer questions by certain Republicans.”

One question that Schiff barred a witness from answering reportedly came from Ohio Republican Congressman Jim Jordan who attempted to ask the initial anonymous “whistleblower” who they spoke with following the infamous July phone call between Trump and Ukrainian president.

“Adam Schiff says, ‘no-no-no we’re not going to let him answer that question,’” Jordan said as reported by Fox News.

The latest charges against Schiff come as the ongoing impeachment process has been rot with allegations of bias where Schiff has been conducting a closed-door investigation interviewing witnesses whose testimony has been selectively leaked to the press to frame the president.

Good to know that Gym Jordan knows who the whistleblower is now.

@mystery-ak

Appears a Republican was trying to get Lt. Colonel Vindman to identify the whistleblower.  Schiff didn't allow the Lt. Colonel to answer the question.

There is one Republican on one of the committees involved in the inquiry who said today he has never attended any of the meetings.  He said he is too busy doing his job.

Cheese isn't free.

No, not at all, my brother.  I diverted.  Send me to timeout.
