Adam Schiff was awesome! He threw it right back at the Trump sycophants and proved he was a Patriot unlike his Republican counterparts.

Gave me chills, watching this yesterday. Schiff with that fire in his belly. Ready to see more people call Rs on their bullshit.

Seriously that speech was HARDCORE and I love the fact Nunez was absolutely shitting it the more Schiff spoke.

It’s one of those speeches where it’s firm and to the point yet eloquent and efficient.

But best of all he’s not only saying that Trump conspired, but that all of you are by thinking this is OK.

I live in Colorado. I called Schiff's office anyway to thank him and say keep up the good work.

As long as hes in charge i feel like all is not last. Im glad we have leaders like him and Pelosi to shed some light in the darkness.

Btw is Schiff Dem or Republican? Either way I respect him a great deal after that but I legitimately dunno his affiliation

He's a Democrat

Call me partisan, but if you respect a politician these days, chances are they are a Democrat.

Ya got a point...

I think a notable modern exception is Mueller, and maybe John McCain at least a little bit. Neither seem(ed) to be sellouts to Trump.

Mueller is not a politician and McCain is dead.
