There are some Members of Congress you see and think, “I get it, I can see how that person got elected.” Either they’re charismatic, smart, attractive, have that “it” factor, or some combination of those traits and you get it. Then there are some who have you thinking they made some kind of deal with the devil to get there – personality-less, weird, creepy, almost soulless people who’d say or do anything if it helped them, even a little. California Congressman Adam Schiff is the perfect example of that.
He hasn’t been in the news much, which should tell you something about all the allegations he threw around during the Trump administration. For someone who swore the Russian government had installed a puppet in the White House, it’s a bit odd that he’d drop all investigations into it the second he had a President in the White House who’d offer up access to any and everything within the executive branch, doesn’t it?
Of course, he was lying. That’s what he does, lies are his water. But you can’t help but think about this guy and wonder how he got there. Who ran against him in the past? I get that his district is liberal, so the odds of them electing a Republican are slim, but what about the primary? Did he run against a pervert? It’s California, being a pervert would probably be a plus.
What kind of character flaws or personality defects could his opponents have had that would lead the people of his district to think “Adam Schiff is my guy!”?
The only reason these thoughts occurred to me is on the 1 year anniversary of the death of George Floyd I got an email from the Schiff campaign. I have no idea how I ended up on his campaign list, I signed up for a few campaign emails just to see what they were sending out, but not his. Somewhere in the process my contact info was sold to him, and now I get regular requests for money.
The reason I mentioned George Floyd is the one on May 25th was about him and raising money off his death. Classy, as always.
I don’t know if Schiff was the only Democrat raising money off Floyd, I can’t imagine he was – Democrats will raise money off anything, no matter how classless it is to do.
Schiff’s email reads, in part, “In the past year, we’ve seen a seismic shift in activism. Millions of people have marched in favor of police reform and spoken out against the systemic racism and discrimination Black Americans face every single day.” That’s a pretty selective memory of the last year and a complete bastardization of the reality of policing, but what do you expect from someone like him?
He then claims “Democrats have lifted up the voices of those crying out. We’ve listened. We’ve stood up. We’ve marched alongside activists. And we’ve passed legislation to begin the work of righting wrongs.” They’re such heroes, aren’t they?
“But Republicans have stood in the way at every turn,” he continued. “Villainizing peaceful protest. Preventing justice. Laughing off accountability. And blowing racist dog whistles as loud as bullhorns to rally their base.” More than 100 straight days of riots, dozens murdered, more than a billion dollars in damage and those mean, racist, dog whistle-blowing Republicans villainized those sweet, sweet people.
He doesn’t come right out and beg for money in the email, even Democrats get how tacky that would be. Schiff’s email includes a link to sign a “petition” demanding Republicans pass “police reform,” which Democrats had just finished blocking in the last year of the Trump administration. (No mention of that in the email.)
From the signing of the petition, as soon as you hit submit, then comes the ask for cash. It’s really gross. The petition is meaningless, just an attempt to reel suckers in; and it works.
So, with the lies, the creepy personality, the willingness to do or say anything, you really have to wonder what the alternatives are every two years that make Adam Schiff the most appealing option to voters of his district. Because I can’t imagine anyone actually likes him.
I have no idea how Schiff gets reelected. Gerry Nadler would be another. May be it is because they fight against Republicans. As for campaigning off Floyd, I’d expect no less from any Democrat.
Those pseudo-surveys are used also by Republican fundraisers. A way to reiterate their issues and talking points.

I grew up near that district. The three words would be “third world immigration”. Plus a smattering of Woke Hollyweird.
I also love that his name is used universally as replacement for SH_T by everyone in the the right wing media!
I am not at all certain his boyfriend actually ‘likes’ him...
He is, after all, a lying, scheming skunk, hellbent on extending the ‘power’ of the leftists to control every facet of American life, and destroy the legacy of a once great Nation.
Schiffty’s BFF, Ed Buck, begins his trial in about a month.
I do not have evidence of voter fraud in his case. Still - given what has been revealed about the recent presidential campaign, misuse of absentee ballots, registering people who are not legal voters, and the ease of remotely adding votes from one and subtracting from another and consistently lopsided voting when there seems no good reason for that. the possibility of ubiquitous stolen elections comes to mind as something that has gone on for a long time in a lot of places.
There’s a lot of mental illness among them and they are not necessarily “suffering” from it because they are able to transfer their abject misery upon the rest of us who are quite normal. It’s time...to waterboard them with their own misery, and if it kills them then it’s due only to their inherent mental illness(es).
California U.S. Congressional Candidate ERIC EARLY’S Campaign Say’s Adam Schiff Is Blocking Early Ads in Armenian media

I believe his only real usefulness in life is to serve as a life-sized model for a bobble-head doll.
I agree.
Answer: No.
Next question.
Hell no. The guy is a creep.
You can say that again.
As a primary leader of the conspiracy to overthrow the American Government, Adam Schiff should not still be breathing
I heard his mother changed her name and is telling everyone who'll listen that she's still a virgin.
“...I do not have evidence of voter fraud ..”
Considering people like Newsome, Pelosi and Feinstein and their LONG tenure in California politics.... that IS your evidence of voter fraud.
What else explains how or why such patently corrupt, venal, incompetent, deceitful and biased people get into office and stay there?
I think it’s the same across the US. Every state has ‘post turtles’ getting and holding positions of authority and responsibility for which they have NO demonstrated experience or competence. We always ask ourselves, ‘HOW did that clown get elected?’
Our last Presidential election, with its ‘wall-to-wall’ irregularities and in-your-face fraud, has cast long-overdue and irrefutable exposure on all that. Now we know how idiots and criminals represent us.... and that includes both Democrats and ‘Republicans’. None of them are credible and none of them are without blame.
A flood of Armenian’s you mean
More than a year ago, I started to call corrupt politicians like Schiff “filth”. Now, I am hearing the frustrated voices of major news and opinion sources say similar things about Democrats in general, and specifically about those who have used criminal opportunism offered by COVID to institute totalitarian rule in America. Fauci has gone from the Medical/Scientific Savior of America, to Dr. Mengele in the space of a year. This whole thing is moving, and it ain’t upwards.
