During his grudge-airing, redemption-seeking spectacle on Wednesday, Michael Cohen admitted he was in cahoots with Democratic lawmakers prior to giving his congressional testimony.
“We spoke with Chairman [Elijah] Cummings and the [Democratic] Party,” Trump’s former lawyer confessed to Representative Jody Hice (R-Ga.). “We spoke with Chairman [Adam] Schiff and his people as well.”
Under further questioning by Rep. James Jordan (R-Ohio), Cohen acknowledged he “spoke to Mr. Schiff about topics that were going to be raised at the upcoming hearing.” Jordan clarified that rather than simply discuss the logistics of the hearing, Schiff coached the witness on “what [he was] going to talk about.”
It wasn’t the only attempt by Schiff to influence Cohen’s testimony: In an interview with George Stephanopoulos on “This Week” last Sunday, the Southern California congressman signaled that he expected Cohen to disclose information about alleged crimes committed by the president, including money-laundering and obstruction of justice.
It all amounted to the latest ethical misstep by the Democratic chairman of the House Intelligence Committee; unfortunately, none of Schiff’s bad behavior has caught the attention either of the media or congressional watchdogs. Unlike his predecessor, Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.), who was subjected to a fruitless, eight-month House Ethics Committee investigation in 2017, Schiff continues to escape scrutiny for lying to Congress, misleading the public about imaginary crimes related to Russian collusion, and now, witness-tampering.

While he’s become a darling of #TheResistance—HBO’s Bill Maher called him a “liberal icon” during a 2017 interview—Schiff continues to inflame the public discourse as he seeks to destroy the Trump presidency."

Adam Schiff is a human plague.
Who’s expecting the Democrats to investigate their own, now?
That’s like expecting the House to expel Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib after their anti-American tirades.
I suppose he too will WRITE A BOOK.
Nothing to probe, he's a democrat... He has no ethics...
There is nothing illegal about Schiff and Cummings talking to Cohen before his testimony. He IS THEIR WITNESS.
However, threatening him unless he is willing to LIE is illegal.
"In response, Schiff filed a memo of his own that defended the Justice Department’s actions and called the Nunes memo a “transparent effort to undermine” the DOJ, the FBI, and Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation."
"But new evidence now contradicts much of what Schiff claimed in his counter-memo, including a crucial timeline of contacts between the Justice Department and dossier author Christopher Steele, yet he has not corrected the record. Schiff’s failure to correct this record amounts to lying to Congress—his counter-memo was addressed to all members of the House of Representatives—as well as misleading Americans since the memo is a public record."

Schiff really is a human plague. On the top of his neck that festering puss in his head nearly forces his bulging eyes out of his head at times.
He is a lying scummy punk ...... protected by his best buds, the corrupt, loathsome media.
Where are the criminal leak investigations on Schiff?
Does anybody really listen to Schiff? He is nothing more than a transparent News Hog.
Don’t hold your breath waiting for the Corruptocrats to do anything.
Hey Pubbies….STEP ON IT, you SLOW FOOTED SLOW WITTED NICE guys!!
Hillary Clinton colluded with the Russians by buying their Fake Dossier in order to get FISA to bless the spying that our rotten intel agencies wanted to do on the Trump campaign.
Adam Schiff and Michael Cohen colluded before Cohen gave testimony in Congress.
There was “whole lot of colluding going on” but it did not involve Donald Trump. This is what should be investigated, but the “investigators” are on the side of the Democrats.
Schiff for brains also colluded with Fusion GPS...holding private meetings with.
Where’s the investigation on that?
schiff needs a probe up his a**.
I have thought for sometime that the democrats and media are the Wile E. Coyotes, and President Trump is the roadrunner.
schiff needs a probe up his a**.
He would most likely enjoy that.
Schiff reminds me of a kid I knew when I was in 3rd grade, living in Chicago. He was shifty and sneaky.
He went to the Catholic school down the street, and walked past us on his way home each day.
He’d flick us the bird or make some snide remark, and we’d chase after the little sh*t.
He was a fast runner and always made it home, which was only a couple blocks away, and into his house before we could catch him.
One day, like the others, we chased him. He made it up the cement stairs to the front door of his house, turned to us with a big horsey laugh, and went to open the front door to safety.
Only this time the door was locked.
The next thing, as I recall, were fists bouncing off this kid’s head.
Something has given these Democrats the idea that they are untouchable. They need to be touched.
With a pickax!
Schiff for brains is a pedophile and a traitor. The mess will never get cleaned in the corrupt self perpetuating political system. Hammer time is coming real soon and these vile scum are about to get the justice they richly deserve.
