Serial Liar Adam Schiff Urges DOJ To Pursue Criminal Charges Against Trump For Engaging In Alleged ‘Multiple Criminal Acts’

Democrat Rep. Adam Schiff claims the House Select Committee investigating the “insurrection” at the U.S. Capitol has acquired substantial evidence proving former President Donald Trump “engaged in multiple criminal acts” while attempting to overturn the presidential election on January 6.

In an interview with CNN on Tuesday night, the California Democrat called on the Justice Department to “follow the evidence” and pursue charges against

“Our mission is to expose the facts to the public light about a plot to overturn a presidential election, the first non-peaceful transfer of power we’ve had in our history, and prescribe remedies, legislative remedies to protect our country going forward. The principal mission of the Justice Department is to bring people to justice who break the law,” Schiff told CNN’s Don Lemon.

“We can make a referral, but of course, the Justice Department doesn’t sit around waiting for referrals from us, at least, they haven’t in the past. I hope they’re not simply waiting for us now,” he continued. “It’s their duty to follow the evidence and, if there are credible allegations of crime, to pursue them against anyone, including former presidents.”

“If they shouldn’t be waiting, do you find — at least in what you know — enough credible evidence for the Justice Department to act at this moment?” Lemon asked.

“I certainly believe there’s enough evidence for them to open an investigation of several people, and so does Judge David Carter of California who believes the former president and others were engaged in likely multiple criminal acts. So, if the Justice Department concurs with Judge Carter, let alone my own view or others, they should be pursuing that,” Schiff replied. “So, yes, I think there is sufficient evidence to open an investigation.

“It would be up to the Justice Department ultimately to decide does that evidence rise to proof beyond a reasonable doubt such that they’re comfortable indicting someone. But there’s certainly, in my view, enough evidence to open up investigations.”

As Schiff pursues charges against scores of Americans for exercising the First Amendment and protesting the ostensibly stolen election, the Democrat lawmaker has yet to be indicted for repeatedly perjuring himself and flamboyantly lying to the American public under oath during his failed attempts to frame Trump and his political opposition.

In December, Schiff notoriously doctored text exchanges between Rep. Jim Jordan and former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows in a bid to depict them as criminals.
