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 am sure it has been done. Hopefully any Congresscritter’s name should be investigated, especially Adam Schiff.

Or maybe just a tight noose around his neck to keep what passes as his brain from running out of his ass.

If Schiff is out lying about the Humpher laptop, we know everything is true.

As Scott Adams said in his Periscope this morning - when the story is BAD, they send out their best liars.

David "Cornholio" Corn spewing cover lies in Mother Jones, James "I Lie When I Breathe" Clapper lying on TeeVee - and now "Rotting Pile Of Lying" Schiff cr@pping out his lying face to cover for CrookedJoe.

[This alternative reality of Russian boogeymen had got to stop.]


They’re not bogeymen. They have thousands of nukes aimed at our cities, and run nuclear attack drills right up to Alaska’s airspace every few weeks. The problem is Trump’s shtick of saying nice things about the leaders of unfriendly countries even as he’s sticking it to them. Why give liberals an opening? The tradition is for the GOP and the Democrats to have a tough public stance against the leaders of the nation’s rivals/adversaries, with the GOP backing tough measures while the Dems back cave-ins at every opportunity. Trump has inverted this by saying nice things about the other guy’s leaders while taking measures against them. In effect, he is tough while not taking credit for being tough. This is confusing low-info voters who are hawkish.

I’ve been waiting for the “naked pictures of Donald Trump” that was described in the Steele Dossier. Today is October 17, less than 3 weeks from election day. This “October surprise” should have taken place by now.

Idiot Schiff belongs in a straight jacket and a padded cell-—what a complete effing moron. I swear if I came within five feet of this guy I would take his head clear off with one good punch...wouldn’t take much as it’s probably held on with super glue.

Adam Schiff thinks EVERYTHING COMES FROM THE KREMLIN.

The poor jerk has KDS...and OCS...and TDS...and so much more.

I’ll bet he has nesting dolls at home with pins in them.

Crackpot.

One of my #NeverTrump friends on Fakebook essentially used Schiff’s argument when I posted a meme about this story earlier today. But I realized late this summer that the #NeverTrump “Republicans” are now indistinguishable from the Hard Left when it comes to the topic of the President.

For a man with Google Eyes Schiff shore don't seem have a varied search engine. Kremlin done it. Russia collusion. Schiff’s delusion.

Smoke screen.......

The Biden Crime Family is truly corrupt in every sense of the word however the FBI will not say a word if a crime has not been committed.

The only justice We The People will ever see is not to put The Big Guy Joe in the White House or let Joe and his son anywhere near it.

VOTE NO FOR JOE!!
