Schiff Sits In Silence As New GOP Star Stefanik Berates Him For Lying About Whistleblower Testifying
New York Rep. Elise Stefanik is quickly becoming the Republicans answer to New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez with one major caveat.
That caveat is the Rep. Stefanik knows what she is talking about and has the ability to make the Democrats pull hair out of their heads.
During testimony in the impeachment inquiry of President Donald Trump, Rep. Stefanik noted that Rep. Adam Schiff kept interrupting his Republican colleagues.
It was for that reason that Rep. Stefanik chose instead if questioning the witness to read Schiff; own lies for the record.
“Sinc ethe Chairman has gaveled out all of my colleagues with their unanimous consent I am going to read for the record many of the Chairman’s comments in September of the importance of hearing from the whistleblower,” she said.
“Again ambassador thank you for your patience thank you for your service but since we haven’t been able to conduct ourselves under normal procedures I’m just gonna use the five minutes for this,” she said.
“September 29th in the Wall Street Journal t’he whistleblower at the center of the impeachment investigation of President Trump will testify in the house very soon.’
“This is a quote by the Chairman USA Today September 29th, talking with ABC News This Week Schiff, the Democrat who chairs the House Intelligence Committee, said the whistleblower would testify very soon and the only thing standing in the way was getting security clearances for the attorneys representing the whistleblower so they could attend the testimony.
“From Vox September 29th Rep Adam Schiff said Sunday the whistleblower at the center of a growing scandal surrounding President Donald Trump will testify before the House Intelligence Committee very soon.
“On CNN September 29th Schiff said Sunday on ABC as well as NBC’s Meet the Press that he expects the whistleblower to testify very soon.
“The Washington Post said September 29th in an appearance on ABC News this week shift echoed Pelosi’s message, he also said he expected the intelligence committee to hear from the whistleblower very soon pending a security clearance from Acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph McGuire.
“In The Huffington Post Schiff told ABC’s This Week that he expects the whistleblower to appear before this committee very soon.
“In the New York Post ‘we’ll get the unfiltered testimony of that whistleblower.’
“In The Washington Times ‘that whistleblower will be allowed to come in.’
“These are all quotes from Chairman Adam Schiff in Talking Points Memo the question was posed actually, this was by George Stephanopoulos, ‘have you reached an agreement yet with the whistleblower and his or her attorneys about coming before the committee and providing the information firsthand?’
“(Schiff) ‘Yes we have shift responded and as DNI McGuire promised during the hearing that whistleblower will be allowed to come in and come in without a minder from the Justice Department or from the White House to tell the whistleblower what they can and cannot say we’ll get the unfiltered testimony of that whistleblower,” she said.
She continued reading more quotes and Schiff was unable to stop her from getting them in the Congressional record as he had thwarted every attempt to do so before.
The only thing he was able to do this time was sit and take it.
