“And I'll say something even more concerning to me, and that is the intelligence community is beginning to withhold documents from Congress on the issue of Ukraine,” Schiff said. “The NSA, in particular, is withholding what are potentially relevant documents to our oversight responsibilities on Ukraine, but also withholding documents potentially relevant that the senators might want to see during the trial.
An Intelligence Committee official later said, “Both the NSA and CIA initially pledged cooperation, and it appears now that the White House has interceded before production of documents could begin.” Schiff — who will serve as the lead House manager for Trump’s Senate trial — also criticized the first legal filing in the proceedings by the president’s defense team. That six-page document, released on Saturday night, called the House impeachment case against Trump a “brazen and unlawful attempt” to overturn the 2016 election.

THIS IS NOT A POINT OF ORDER THIS IS NOT A POINT OF ORDER...
Barr's taking over the DOJ ended up in undermining the justice system. Barr's convincing national security chiefs to bend to Trump's will and obstruct justice could be the final step in undermining democracy.
Ain’t that too bad. I feel your pain.
But why would they hold documents? They did nothing wrong...
Lmao. No jim comey to feed you information?
I wonder if this has anything to do with Nunes? He's on the Intel committee and was recently outed as a participant. Hmmmm
He should just falsify evidence like he did last time to get a warrent. The FBI will gladly help him again Im sure!
And the GOP are supporters of it.
Probably to protect sources and methods from leakers.
What is wrong with the American government? These people are supposed to be intelligent. They should know, they do not have to listen to Trump. They need to remember what happened to Ollie North when he took unlawful orders from the President
Hmmm from the one holding everything away from Republicans including the whistleblower 👍🏻
Lier
onstructionOfJuctice
It doesn’t sound like a country that we should be giving billions of dollars to much less giving Javelin missiles to.
Well... Schiff is not trustworthy. Why would someone give him anything knowing he is a liar and leaker. And he is using every piece of information to fabricate hoaxes in an attempt to take down 45. Schiff should resign or be impeached pronto.
WTF ! 'the intelligence community is beginning to withhold documents from Congress on the issue of Ukraine' === send them to jail, they are criminals + traitors.
Seems like some whistleblowers need to come forward then.
Unbelievable. Two-faced.
Beginning ?
Fake news no less!
Their case has been made. They shouldn’t need new evidence or witnesses. The case should be tried as is
Always someone else's fault with this guy, just like a 2 year old.
And you just believe what he says? He’s a pathological liar and the media doesn’t care
This is enraging. As for the National Archives, they are sacrosanct & used for scholarly research. Now what?! The Constitution NationalArchives are both toilet paper. USSupremeCourt SpeakerPelosi SenSchumer Force our civil servants to comply or remove them.
This is very dangerous. With no oversight we have a rogue president who has already proven to be impulsive & unstable
Don’t worry, schiff... maybe someone will leak them. Isn’t that how your side works?
McginnKeven IngoOverton LessGovMoreFun MVZexplorer Not again! Adam has started making his schizophrenic statements. Is he languishing from Paranoia?
Trigger the House Enforcement Division.
Guys.... I understand the whole loyalty thing I do really (Egyptian House ❤️) but at what point do you say fuck your ops I'm Putting America first? CIA NSA
If the president of Ukraine says that there was no quid pro quo why DON'T Democrats believe him. Democrats DIDN'T care about Ukraine when Obama was president now it's a big deal with Democrats when they sent blankets.
Shampeachment
RepAdamSchiff why are you hiding the whistler blower's documents and full verbatim version of other witnesses depositions? That tantamount to withholding documents and obstruction of justice. Do as you preach or be seen as a fraudster.
In other words, we’re going to lose because we have no evidence and that’s why... pathetic.
Obstruction of Justice
Hope this is just noise
His District is Hollywood tied to Judge Friedman and others.
“Beginning”
More agencies bending under Trump's reign of terror. Why so terrified? A job can't be worth selling out to a criminal. Doesn't anyone have half a spine? National Archives caved and now FBI and CIA.
and how this liar knows about this? Looking in a Crystal Ball? USA Trump
They should be arresting you all.
And how does he know this?
It's just a false flag. Schitty knows what's coming for him
And after three years of lies about Russia from this guy why would anyone find him reliable about anything?
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff alleged that the NSA and CIA may be withholding documents on Ukraine from Congress due to pressure from the White House ......More stuff Schiff just made up.
They may have a little pressure from the American ppl if they don't hand them over.
That’s beyond rich after what the deep state, specifically the NSA and CIA have done against the President. If they are withholding anything, it’s to protect themselves or their paymasters.
Adam Schitt also has pictures of bigfoot and the loch ness monster. 🙄
It must be true because Adam Schiff has never been wrong and will never tell a lie!
This needs _immediate_ investigation.
Neither of these agencies would do anything to help POTUS
Has this man EVER spoken the truth?
Schiff never changes.
Ohhhhh, ahhhhh, more juicy Intel from the 'intelmaster' Can't wait. Oops, he's been saying that for 3 + years......
He’s a well-documented liar.
Schiff is withholding Intel Committee deposition of IC IG Michael Atkinson
America needs to see your pictures RepAdamSchiff ! releasethepictures adamschiff
Same shit he’s doing. Scumbag.
Way tooooooo many Criminals traitors lowlifes
He's truly insane and should be investigated
Why? Whose side are national security agencies are on, Trump's or the American people's? They took oath to support and protect the Constitution and not Trump, right?
BWAAA HAAAA HAAAA
Ridiculous
He alleges a lot of things. For example, he ranted (not alkeged) that he had proof positive that realDonaldTrump colluded with Russia. RepAdamSchiff is full of 💩.
This guy is such a depraved liar. First, the media allows him to pimp them out for his Russia hoax scam and now they repeat every disgusting lie and smear he throws out there. No evidence needed. The media is just sickening.
buffaloon This is just MORE Obstruction of Justice by Trump. Trump is attempting to HIDE his criminal acts by committing the crime of obstructing justice. Trump commits crime, after crime, after crime. And this is just the crime that we know about.
Find the Schiff photos.
Schiff is withholding Atkinson transcript. Why is that? Because it contains exculpatory evidence. It's our turn now. A year of false accusations and media collusion are over. Suck it up.
Last night your wife’s best friend sister told the gutter guy that you were at the local bar that has a glory hole. Oh dam you got something on your lip.
Where’s all that evidence he said he had on Russia He’s withholding evidence.
If anyone believes Schiff, i pray for yalls bottomless soul..
Schiff and intelligence shouldn’t ever be in the same sentence. He’s the only one withholding documents. Where’s the testimony of IGIC Michael Atkinson? If Schiff is ever talking about PresidentTrump, he’s lying.
Bull
This coming from the same POS still withholding the release of Atkinson testimony? I’m sure Politico called him out on that, right? Riiiight.
Time for Schiff and all the journalists reporting on this and who have been reporting on the 3 year Trump-Russia collusion hoax to put up, or shut up! His proof or suspicions never seem to have any evidence.
ATKINSON TRANSCRIPT where is it, Schiff?
Uhhh RepAdamSchiff was communicating with ericciaramella for months so why doesn't he just ask him🤔
He also alleges it likely that the Unicorn who accidentally stuck his horn up Adam's butt was allowed by some registrar to vote for Trump and while he likes the Unicorn, he resents the registrar.
He's lying
👹
Alleges...may...more bull💩 from LiberalHacks
Hey Schiff is still holding deposition transcripts from the dungeon. Why don't you ask him to release those? We know of them for a fact they happened & are withheld.
You mean lying Schiff
RepAdaamSchiff is still hiding the farce whistleblower, and Atkinson transcript from Oct 4, 2019.
Has the transcript of Michael Atkinson been sent in its entirety?
Schiff is a known Liar, he read a flat out lie of the call live on TV, he still hasn't turned over all the Transcripts from his little secret hearings in the basement he is going to lie to coverup for his own Crimes, he is the biggest fraud, someone should ask him about Ed Buck
That is one paranoid dude. Conspiracies everywhere!
Tell Schiff to release the CIA IG Atkinson testimony!!!
Adam also claims he had evidence of collusion I can't wait until he gets shredded in the impeachment trial
If we've learned Anything over the past 3 yrs, it's that the NSA and CIA deep staters would leak anything that they suspect could hurt a Trump. If it hasn't been leaked it doesn't exist.
That's what you do when you realize your case is weaker than a Russian Collusion Investigation that took 2 years to do. You start blaming other people for your incompetence and inability to tell the truth.
Schiff is a proven liar. Schiff is claiming that damaging photos of his escapades (perhaps those found at Ed Bucks house) are all phony. We'll see about that effort to get in front of his scandal.
I can't imagine why intelligence agencies would withhold information from Adam Schiff.
Where is ICIG Atkinson's TESTIMONY RepAdamSchiff HAS REFUSED TO RELEASE IT? WHY? senatemajldr tedcruz HawleyMO LindseyGrahamSC
Lmao the cia and nsa working with trump? How come you in the media let adam continue to lie! This man still hasn’t released all information that he did in the basement of his nazi like trial
How many unsealed indictments are there? Maybe it’s because there are investigations ongoing. Seems like some ppl have things on Schiff he better be careful what he advocates for.
BonnieBlueBell1 Hmm, who still has influence with the CIA and NSA that would benefit from truths about the State Department and trafficking 'models' for 30 years effect? JaneHawk DeanKoontzProphecy
LydisDeckers All Obstructionists must be held accountable. Tax payers fund this government, it's not a crime syndicate. Justice is long overdue.
Just like he had proof positive of Russia collusion. MSM never has held him accountable for those lies.
SethAbramson I’m sorry why would two agencies who r independent be listening to the White House? It goes that deep? Jeez it’s almost like Designated Survivor. Will it ever be over?
Here we go. Prove it shifty
SaveRDemocrazy No doubt 👍
He's so full of Schiff. Always coming up with wild unproven accusations only shows how pathetic he is and the case against Pres. Left always accuses others of what they're doing or have done. pieceofschiff
SethAbramson How can NSAGov & CIA really allow a criminal presidency to tell them to obstruct justice, an illegal act they are participating in?
SethAbramson no doubt
Based on Schiff’s track record, is it a surprise to anyone that he would make this claim? He knows all the bullshit he’s been spewing is about to be shown to be false, he’s desperately looking for alternative claims to deflect from his incompetence.
Wow things like that should have been investigated in the house impeachment inquiry, but you rushed it through Adam lol
SethAbramson Counsellor, Sen.Hawley is insisting his motion to dismiss is still a part of McConnell's rules for the trial. Can you comment?
We need to impeach and incarcerate pencil neck Shift
SethAbramson Ya thank? Uh, he told told everyone not to cooperate and I'm sure the CIA and NSA falls into the set of Everyone.
This: An Intelligence Committee official later said, “Both the NSA and CIA initially pledged cooperation, and it appears now that the White House has interceded before production of documents could begin.”
Nothing here! Refusing to cooperate is enough to oust Trump and the rest of them.
Poor Schiff. Will he recover?
Does he ever stop
Wouldn't be surprised. Secret server in WH. That was unknown.
SethAbramson They are all dirty.
SethAbramson The troll brigade is here!!
It's bc Schiff is not indicted yet. They will not give the soon to be suspect all the evidence. But Schiff will see it as soon as Barr is ready for it.
SethAbramson Call them in to testify to Congress.
SethAbramson That would be very on-brand.
How is this possible? He barely finished lecturing us about how the intelligence community is above reproach. Which is it Schiff?
SethAbramson How do you reconcile this with the idea of democracy? You can’t. We must vote this despot out.
.realDonaldTrump LOL Send over the Ukranian documents.... just make sure they're the ones they don't want!
SethAbramson Wouldn't be surprised if they were withholding important documents, likely they're being ordered to protect the presidents office.
Hahaha Adam. What’s in your treasure trove of transcripts you selectively leaked? Who is pressuring you not to release this? 1st witness Adam, you are numero uno.
Or maybe they fear the leaky SchifftySchiffhead
SethAbramson He is. No doubt in my mind.
TRUMP'S DICTATORSHIP IS TAKING HOLD
what else do you expect? When democrats had all the resources in 2016, they were weak. Now Trump has all internal and more important massive global resource at his disposal to win 2020. Scary.
Trump has the Ace up his sleeve. If this goes to witnesses, it's game over Adam!
