We could've seen our congresswoman was going full Trump with
the juvenile nickname she defamed Tedra Cobb with. Wednesday, she retweeted
Kevin McCarthy's comment, "Chairman Schiff just got caught orchestrating
with the whistleblower before the complaint was ever filed. Democrats have rigged
this process from the start," in response to a NY Times article. Ms.
Stefanik's tweet read, "I'm glad that the question I asked last week has
been answered. As a member of the House Intelligence Committee, I'm extremely
concerned with our Chairman's increasingly reckless behavior." We recently
learned the president told two Russian officials, in the Oval Office, he didn't
care about their interference in our election. That something a Republican
politician would've at least called "reckless behavior" in the past.
Not today.
The president's comment on the NYT article was,
"(Schiff) knew long before and helped write it, too." So, he's
accusing Mr. Schiff of helping write the complaint. From the NYT, "The CIA
officer approached a House Intelligence Committee aide with his concerns about
Mr. Trump only after he had had a colleague first convey them to the CIA's top
lawyer. Concerned about how that initial avenue was unfolding, the officer then
approached the House aide." Quoting Mr. Schiff's spokesman, "At no
point did the committee review or receive the complaint in advance."
Schiff's parody of the president's call was wrong, but it
was clearly parody. The scurrilous charges against him are not and display the
same conspiratorial thinking and dishonesty that led the president to send Rudy
Guiliani to Ukraine in the first place.
