heartadamschiff Should also subpoena Craig Carpenito, NJ US Attorney

Well Adam...why don't you make that happen? Or is it more grandstanding and pandering for votes? You and Democrats for 3-1/2 years have whined and moaned, making accusations one after the other. Never no facts or evidence, just baseless gossip.

DOptomist Hopes? Can't he like... make him or else!

Must change that Mr. Schiff is 'hoping' for testimony. Contempt needs much harsher punishments - sit in jail, lose your paycheck, lose your job. It's is ridiculous that Barr, Pompeo, Mnuchin et al think that showing up for scheduled sessions with lawmakers is optional.

CastroDaneen 'Hopes'? Can't he be subpoenaed? WTF?!

Hope, he will

Hope Congress gets all those men to testify!! Americans need to know the TRUTH!! Elections are coming and as Americans we need everything to be out to the public! PERIOD!! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!! I am so fed up!!

Yeah, like he’ll tell the truth and anything but the truth!

I hope we get a real opposition party one of these years.

He can't say zip about ongoing investigations, so this will be all about Barr and Trump.

Haven’t heard from this guy in a minute.

Hopes? How about demand via subpoena! RepAdamSchiff

House Intelligence Chair Adam Schiff said he hopes Geoffrey Berman, the ousted U.S. attorney, testifies at Trump Capital Punishment pre sentencing hearings.

AllegromyUSA He will.

He won't. He'll be disbarred.

I hope Schiff continues to strongly complain about Trump while doing nothing of actual substance

I sure hope y’all are inviting him to spill all the dirt they have on trump! His time is up!!

'Hopes' FFS this feckless idiot can subpoena him today, if he doesn't then once more he'll prove that this DNC aren't fit to challenge let alone govern either. It's almost as if they want Trump where he is.

Enough asking, subpoena Berman Monday.

President as others before has the right to choose his own US attorneys. Another non issue for dishonest Schiff

subpoena him. he'll comply. we can't go on hope they'll do the right thing at all anymore.

Enough hoping, do something about this clownshow
