Why hasn't this guy been kicked our of Congress or at the least had any committee assignment revoked. He is a bald face liar and presenter of fallacious statements and accusations. He makes things up and then goes on national TV to spout his lies and deceits and this just another one and against a fellow member of Congress. He should censured on the floor of the House and forced to offer an apology. Why anyone believes anything that passes through this liars lips is amazing.

During January 6 Hearing, Schiff Doctored Text Messages Between Mark Meadows And Rep. Jim Jordan
Democrat Adam Schiff doctored text messages between Mark Meadows and Jim Jordan during Monday's Jan. 6 hearings, an investigation by The Federalist shows.

Oops, he did it again. After leaking fake Donald Trump, Jr. emails, fabricating the transcript of a 2019 phone call between former President Donald Trump and Ukraine’s president, and lying about his interactions with the so-called whistleblower behind House Democrats’ first impeachment of Trump, Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., is now running the same con against a fellow lawmaker. During a hearing Monday night on the riot at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, Adam Schiff claimed to have proof that a member of Congress texted former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows to instruct former Vice President Mike Pence to overturn the 2020 presidential election results.

Not only did Schiff misrepresent the substance of the text message and its source, he even doctored original text messages, which were obtained and reviewed by The Federalist in their entirety.



Not only did Schiff lie about the substance of the text message and its source, he even doctored the message and graphic that he displayed on screen during his statement. The full text message, which was forwarded to Meadows from Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, on the evening of Monday, Jan. 5, was significantly longer than what Schiff read and put on screen, but Schiff erased significant portions of the text and added punctuation where there was none to give the impression that Jordan himself was tersely directing Meadows to give orders to Pence on how to handle the electoral vote certification.

The original text was written by Washington attorney and former Department of Defense Inspector General Joseph Schmitz and included an attachment of a four-page draft Word document drafted by Schmitz that detailed Schmitz’s legal reasoning for suggesting that Pence had the constitutional authority to object to the certification of electoral votes submitted by a handful of states. The piece that Schmitz had sent to Jordan was published at the website everylegal.vote the next day and even included the same “DISCUSSION DRAFT” heading and timestamp on the document that Schmitz sent to Jordan.

“Good luck tomorrow!” Schmitz texted Jordan on the evening of Jan. 5, including the Word document as an attachment. Schmitz then texted to Jordan a three-paragraph summary of his Word document, which Schiff sliced and diced and then attributed to Jordan:


“On January 6, 2021, Vice President Mike Pence, as President of the Senate, should call out all the electoral votes that he believes are unconstitutional as no electoral votes at all — in accordance with guidance from founding father Alexander Hamilton and judicial precedence,” Schmitz texted. In his graphic, Schiff erased the final clause and the em dash preceding it and added a period to the first clause without disclosing that he or his staff had chopped up the text and created a fake graphic misrepresenting the actual contents of the text message.

Schmitz continued: “‘No legislative act,’ wrote Alexander Hamilton in Federalist No. 78, ‘contrary to the Constitution, can be valid.’ The court in Hubbard v. Lowe reinforced this truth: ‘That an unconstitutional statute is not a law at all is a proposition no longer open to discussion.’ 226 F. 135, 137 (SDNY 1915), appeal dismissed, 242 U.S. 654 (1916).”

“Following this rationale, an unconstitutionally appointed elector, like an unconstitutionally enacted statute, is no elector at all,” Schmitz wrote.

In his statement and on-screen graphic, Schiff erased the final two paragraphs and the final clause of the first paragraph of the text message before inserting punctuation that was never there, all without disclosing what he was doing. The graphic displayed by Schiff, which was doctored to look like an exact screenshot, was similarly doctored, as it contained content that was never in the original message and eliminated content that was.

Another attempt to mitigate the events of 1/6 or an attempt of diversion perhaps... ?

 

Or a pathological liar who should be removed from committee, proving exactly why the Fourth Amendment exists. These protections are REAL. Without them, we're just North Korea without The Kim!

 

So does this mean they didn’t try to overturn the election results?

 

I’m still wondering HOW they would have overturned it. Was q anon shaman gonna defeat the US military? What was the plan? Do you have an answer or just repeating fake CNN talking points?

 

Did Al Gore not try to overturn the election results in 2000?(Hint, he did, there was even a Supreme Court case about it.) Trump's cases of course, lacked the merit to even reach that far. But being an objector didn't stop in 2016 either!

We went from whether Trump engaged in an attempt of the Putch of 1923(in Germany) to whether legal measures in court or law "overturn the election results", it's freaking funny if it didn't result in the kangaroo court.

 

By having pence refuse to certify some states and/or certify the fake electors

 

Gores case was about a recount. Not giving the election to the guy who lost.

 

So, they were scheming to have Pence prevent the certification of the election? Thanks for confirming.

As to Schiff, lock him up. Isn't that the RW rallying cry for people they don't like?

 

What does that have to do with Schiff falsifying evidence?

 

Nothing of course.

Just like the democrats and left wing media are doing, it's only trying to turn the focus away from the current disaster created by the democrats.

 

This is the second thread referencing the same article and headline so I will post the same thing I did in the other thread:
A period (.) was inadvertently added to the end of the graphic equates to "doctored"??? And this is the headline of an article by the founder of the Federalist. This should give everyone who reads the Federalist pause.

 

That’s a comical interpretation lol

 

They won't talk about that. The bug eyed liar is a fraud and complete scumbag.... and a hero of Leftists that post here. They are 100% good with him lying as he did regarding "Trump Russia Collusion" and during the Peach Mints as long as they think it hurts the opposition. The ends justify the means to these people.

The Left thinks they can just run against Trump. They have not been paying attention that America has now experience their brand of "leadership" and in less than a year, the same American electorate would now pick Trump hands down over Biden. They are screwed. We just have to be a bit patient for 2022.

 

Yah let’s give power back to the party who tried to literally steal the election with fake electors lol that sounds wise

 

Yep... T****/? 2024....

Too funny... the committee shortened that one text (and dumbly added a period) for space on a cue card..

Also, since Jordan forwarded the text and it wasn't written by him, it didn't come from a "lawmaker"

Wow... this is pitiful

But thanks to Gym for outing that he was the one who sent this to Meadows... so the committee doesn't have to...

 

Only in Leftist fantasy land did that "literally happen". Thanks for sharing that absurd stupidity.

The Democratic Party is going to get CRUUUUUUSSSSHHHED in 2022. I will make an account bet with you on that fact. Do you want to put your account where your mouth is?

 

That would be the OP article, the editor and The Federalist .

 

Well I’m sure his next text was “don’t do this, tell fatso he lost and to take it like a man”

 

Gore did not try to “overturn the election results”. Gore went to the Supreme Court to ask for a full recount, and the republicans only wanted certain votes recounted in Florida, in a state that was already doing the recount.

That is NOTHING like what’s happening now.

 

Well he is a Shaman. I imagine he had some tricks up his sleeve to become the first Medicine Man-in-Chief.

Although this thread is really about Schiff having a little magic of his own.

 

Actually, I believe he referred to Trump as Assolini not fatso .

 

Nah I think we’ll lose in the midterm also. Just like trump and Obama did…hardly evidence of much.
Trump was trying to get pence to certify fake electors and throw out valid ones. That's literally trying to steal the election. Just say you’re over democracy already.

 

The result of which, had it went the other way would've declared a different winner. Sounds to me like that overturns the election results.
