But even race-neutral policies and recruitment efforts designed to achieve greater diversity are, in the end, not race neutral. Adam Schiff More Quotes by Adam Schiff More Quotes From Adam Schiff Whether the additional party or parties present during the meeting with these top Trump campaign personnel at the time Donald Trump had seized the nomination were connected directly with Russia intelligence or not, it is clear the Kremlin got the message that Donald Trump welcomed the help of the Russian government in providing dirt on Hillary Clinton. Adam Schiff politics This is not putting America first, but continuing to propagate his own personal fiction at the country’s expense. Adam Schiff latest-headlines The President's comments today, again casting doubt on whether Russia was behind the blatant interference in our election and suggesting – his own intelligence agencies to the contrary – that nobody really knows, continue to directly undermine U.S. interests. Adam Schiff top-news I think that would be a terrible abdication of our global leadership when it comes to advocating for people who are the subject of persecution. Adam Schiff politics Enough is enough, Congress really needs to get to the bottom of this. Adam Schiff top-news But nonetheless, he fired the top cop on that investigation, and I think no one believes this was about Hillary Clinton's emails, I think it was all about the Russia case. Adam Schiff top-news I don't think anyone finds that credible, and certainly not after getting a completely different explanation yesterday or the day before. Adam Schiff top-news I do think we need to learn more about the circumstances that led to the director's firing. Adam Schiff top-news For her to say Comey was guilty of some 'atrocity'? it's embarrassing. Adam Schiff top-news We want to make sure the conclusions the intelligence community reached are supported by the underlying raw data. We also were obviously very interested in the US government response when we knew the Russians had hacked us, as well as the issue of whether US persons affiliated with the Trump campaign were coordinating in any way, i think the witnesses were responsive to those questions. Adam Schiff politics Director Comey testified that Director Comey choice was to ‘ conceal or speak ’ about the Hillary Clinton investigation in the latter two weeks of the campaign, this highly-loaded description meant to justify the decision Director Comey made in the waning days of the presidential campaign is a poor characterization of the choice Director Comey faced. Schiff said the. Adam Schiff latest-headlines For far too long, Congress has abdicated its constitutional responsibility to authorize military action abroad, effectively ceding the war-making power to the Executive Branch. Adam Schiff politics Nevertheless, this missile strike and the military action of our forces already in Syria, have yet to be authorized by Congress, congress cannot abdicate its responsibility any longer and should vote on any use of force not made in self defense.
