During the theater known as the Donald Trump Impeachment hearings Adam Schiff conducted a number of interviews with “witnesses.” He conducted them in a SCIF – Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility.
Talk of the impeachment inquiry is everywhere in America, but Americans have no idea what it actually looks like.
That’s because House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA) has so far conducted the entire impeachment inquiry in a secret room in the basement of the Capitol building that is not accessible by the general public.
Just to the south of the Capitol Visitor Center underneath the dome and down one spiral staircase is a room hidden behind two heavy wooden doors.
On the doors are red signs with white letters that say: “Restricted Area. No public or media access. Cameras and recording devices prohibited without proper authorization.”
Behind those doors is a hallway, which leads to the secret room where Schiff is conducting the impeachment inquiry of President Trump.
The House Intelligence Committee has a huge hearing room in the Longworth House Office Building where they can hold hearings that do not concern classified material, which members of the public and journalists can attend.
But the impeachment inquiry is taking place in the committee’s Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF) — a room for members to use when discussing and viewing classified material.
And here’s why
Republicans say the impeachment inquiry is not an intelligence matter that needs to be in the SCIF, but its location gives Schiff the ability to tightly control everything — and everyone — going in and out.
Security guards stand in front of the two wooden doors to make sure reporters and other unauthorized members of the public stay out. But inside the hallway, there are security officers who make sure unauthorized members of Congress and staffers stay out of the SCIF.
Schiff and the Democrats control who is allowed in.
Schiff promised to release the transcripts of those interviews but thus far has refused and has sat on them for a year. Fortunately there is a new sheriff in town. Acting DNI Grenell has advised Schiff that if he doesn’t release the transcripts that he (Grenell) would.
Among the transcripts to be released
The 53 transcripts eligible for release, according to a source familiar with the transcripts, included interviews with Trump Jr., Bannon, Kushner, Hicks, Lewandowski, former Trump attorney Michael Cohen, Roger Stone, Brad Parscale, Michael Caputo and Rick Dearborn.
Also expected to be released, according to the source: transcripts for interviews with Obama officials such as former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper; former Attorney General Loretta Lynch; former Ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power; former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe; former National Security Adviser Susan Rice; former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates; former Obama adviser Benjamin Rhodes; and former Obama counselor and Hillary Clinton Campaign Manager John Podesta.
This is reported to have Schiff in a “panic”:
Transcripts of House Intelligence Committee interviews that have been cleared for release show top law enforcement and intelligence officials affirming they had no evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia during the 2016 election, senior administration and intelligence community officials told Fox News on Wednesday.
This would align with the results of former Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation — which found no evidence of illegal or criminal coordination between President Trump, the Trump campaign and Russia in 2016 — but the numerous transcribed interviews could raise further questions about committee Chairman Adam Schiff’s past statements saying that there was “direct evidence” of collusion.
“Schiff is in panic mode,” a senior administration official told Fox News.
I certainly hope so. I hope he can’t sleep. I hope he can’t eat. But I doubt he suffers either as he is a sociopath.
John Solomon dissects some of Schiff’s outrageous and deceitful claims.
Schiff Report Claim: DOJ and FBI officials “made only narrow use of information from Steele’s sources about Page’s specific activities in 2016.”
Declassified Facts: Horowitz directly contradicted this claim, concluding the dossier “played a central and essential role” in the FISA application. “The FISA request form drew almost entirely from Steele’s reporting in describing the factual basis to establish probable cause to believe that Page was an agent of a foreign power,” the IG wrote.
There is a good vetting at the link. And as for Schiff’s first reaction to Grenell?
NEW: Intel officials tell me @RepAdamSchiff had staff reach out to heads of IC agencies asking what role @RichardGrenell-a known Trump ally-may have played in the declassification/redaction process of the transcripts.
sources said it was completed before Grenell took over as DNI https://t.co/klFCOgZMMj— Brooke Singman (@BrookeSingman) May 7, 2020
Adam Schiff is a liar. For three years he he peddled this Russian bullsh*t and the let wing media swallowed whole. He is a former prosecutor and you have to wonder how many innocent people he has imprisoned with his lies. As I said before, Schiff is a bastard.
He is also a traitor.
