Adam Schiff claims Hunter Biden email stories come 'from the Kremlin'

'We know that this whole smear on Joe Biden comes from the Kremlin.'

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff on Friday described revelations from a slew of emails in a laptop allegedly belonging to Hunter Biden as being part of a smear coming “from the Kremlin” -- amid claims the revelations are part of a Russian disinformation campaign.

“We know that this whole smear on Joe Biden comes from the Kremlin," Schiff said on CNN. "That's been clear for well over a year now that they've been pushing this false narrative about this vice president and his son.”

The California Democrat was responding to questions about the origins of emails, found on a laptop purported to belong to the son of Democratic nominee Joe Biden, and first reported by the New York Post.

Those emails reveal that Hunter Biden purportedly introduced his father to a top executive at Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings in 2015, while another appears to reportedly outline a payout for Biden as part of a deal with a Chinese energy firm.

While Fox News has not independently verified the Post’s reporting, Fox has spoken to one of the people who was copied on the email about the Chinese energy firm, who confirmed its authenticity.

The Bidens' relationship with Ukraine came under special attention last year as House Democrats pursued an impeachment inquiry surrounding President Trump's July 25 call with Ukraine's president, in which Trump asked the president to look into Biden’s dealings in the country.

Trump in recent days has drawn attention to the new revelations from the Post, something that drew criticism from Schiff.

“The origins of this whole smear are from the Kremlin and the president is only too happy to have Kremlin help in trying to amplify it,” he said Friday on CNN.

I’m not a pearly clutcher. Do we really need to catalogue the instances over the last four years where the fake narrative ruled the public consciousness? I’m just calling for it to be weeded out before it takes root, and we are told that the evidence is at hand to do just that.

Sounds like that piece of Schiff from CA needs to be investigated. He protests too much. Follow the money on him.

Russia collusion... white supremacy... his tax returns...

These dems just keep running the same tired plays over and over again.

God forbid they actually come up with some ideas that appeal to the American people!

This was a conspiracy not only by Russians, but also right-wing White supremacists and man-made-global-warming deniers.

Moscow Mitch probably had a hand in it too.

I have to wonder, when will Republican congressmen get the testicular fortitude to abuse the hell out of Schiff. I mean at every turn and every interaction. Make his frickin’ life miserable. Isolate, abuse, ridicule, repeat. Drive Schiff into deep dark depression so puts the gun in his mouth and pull the trigger.

Remembr, folks - when Hunter Biden sent out for a dildo to liven up one of his strip club parties, they brought back Adam Schiff.
