Schiff admits there’s no indication Trump under investigation by DoJ

Buffalo NY

Description

House Intelligence Committee chair Adam Schiff begrudgingly admitted this Sunday that he’s “yet to see any indication” that former President Donald Trump is under investigation by the Department of Justice. Speaking on MSNBC’s “Meet the Press,” he made the bombshell admission while predictably complaining about the DOJ’s refusal to directly charge Trump. In a blog post published Friday, legal expert Jonathan Turley noted that actually “[m]aking such a case [in court] is far more challenging than making the claim on national television. ” “District of Columbia Attorney General Karl Racine announced [last year] that he was considering arresting Trump, Donald Trump Jr., Rudy Giuliani and U.S. Rep. Mo Brooks (R-Ala.) for incitement. Then nothing happened. The reason was not any misguided affection for Trump; the problem was that Racine could not make the case,” Turley pointed out. It’s no different than charging Trump with colluding with Russia to affect the outcome of the 2016 presidential election. For years Schiff claimed to be in possession of enough evidence to make the case. Yet as of 2022, a whopping six years after the election, Trump remains uncharged — and rightfully so.
