The statement also played down the charges Stone faced, calling them “process-based,” and suggested they weren’t necessarily crimes at all. Instead, the White House argued, they were leveled “to manufacture the false impression of criminality lurking below the surface.”
“This is the distinction between now and Watergate. The Republicans at that time would not have stood for this, and Nixon understood that,” Schiff claimed. “But Donald Trump understands that he has these Republicans cowed, they won't stand up to him, they won't defend the rule of law.” Another prominent elected Republican and frequent Trump critic, Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan, also criticized the move.
Schitt should be in jail.... He a Washington Wiesel
Liar. Again. Schiff doesn't have a truthful bone left in him.
Prison reform
Nothing you can do about it. President has broad pardon powers. No matter how guilty they are. All legal. Plus has to make sure stone don't rat on him.
He’s a hypocrite.
Nauseated doesn’t do a damn thing. What are the rest of our fucking elected officials doing about it?
And what is this called?
Schiff, enjoy your freedom while you can. The investigation on your role in the FISA warrant is nearing completion. Indictment is coming soon.
Schitt is upholding any laws, spdiesnt even know what it is anymore
😂😂😂😂
Where was Schiff when Obama was so kind to Chelsea Manning?
Even Republicans acknowledge he violated our constitution
But Obama’s 1700+ pardons were OK?
AdamSchiff has been lying to the American people for years, it’s funny that none of the MSM or Democrats had any issues with the 1,927 pardons and commutations from Obama.
How about a House investigation into Lindsey Graham,Matt Gaetz,Devin Nunes,John Barrasso. (Pelosi has done nothing in regards to ethic violations by Nunes)
Got that backwards his nonstop lies and hate and fraud is an affront to humanity?
NOW, do Obama’s 1927 pardons and commutations, including terrorists. Sit DOWN. Hypocrisy propaganda is so lame.
I assume he knows he’s RepAdamSchiff and therefore has a meaningless opinion
He’s just mad, because he always loses. 😂
People still see Schiff as someone who we should believe? Whether you like Trump or not, this jackass spun the Russia story for years and wasted millions of tax dollars and time. For what
This clown again. Schiff, retire.
An affront to the rule of law was Obama commuting traitor Chelsea Manning!
kudos you got commute right, you do know Steele just got done in London.
That must really hurt after how hard you worked to Imoeach him!
Donald Trump's commutation should outrage every american with sanity. He thinks he is above the law, he doesn't want to release his tax returns, he was impeached for soliciting foreign help and for corruption, actions prevented in U.S Constitution as forbidden.
The ' law and order ' president. I wonder what trump supporters think about this one. I'm guessing they don't care. Why would I think otherwise when they're cheering for a Treasonous Coward.
Who cares?
AdamSchiff is a liar
There is no law just slavery
So?
This from a disgustingly dishonest democrat.
Investigate Schiff!
Just don’t give trump a gun to further test his own rule of law
Still waiting for him to provide the evidence he said he had seen that proved Trump/Russian collusion. Why you even listen to this snake oil salesman I’ll never understand.
Schiff has lied to Congress, and the American people. When will he be serving a prison sentence.
Why are Democrats okay with Gavin Newsom commuting the sentence of 8,000 California convicts but not Donald Trump commuting the sentence of Roger Stone—a non-violent first time offender? 🤔
What was his response when Obama pardoned Manning and Bergdahl?
What’s to stop RogerStone from telling the truth about TrumpRussia now (or after Nov) when Mueller is through and Stone’s already been convicted but faces no prison time. Think about the continuing power that gives him over realDonaldTrump.
Schiff is the one that’s nauseating
Hot for excuses ?
What is everybody going to do about it? This is beyond ridiculous!! It’s scary!! And where’s the Republican patriots in all this? Unbelievable!!
maybe politico should look at the documents RichardGrenell that are out that shows RepAdamSchiff lies repeatedly over and over about Russia, Ukraine and many other things! Plenty of evidence out there showing pencil neck is full of crap, MainstreamMedia won't report it? 🤔
While I blame the GOP for most of the destruction of America I also hold the Democratic party accountable for its lack of preparedness for the inevitable abuse of power by a nationalist movement. Clearly it has always been all too easy to pervert the office of the presidency.
As for assclown EdBuck
So is Adam Schiff.
So when are you (POLITICO) going to do your job and help bring this Schiftless Schiff to justice for the corruption and conspiracies that he has done for over 3 years? Really! Nothing!
Obama had over 1100 commutations, many of them traitors and terrorists. Where was the press coverage or outrage back then?! FauxRage FakeNews EnemyOfThePeople
