Schiff also tweeted
“The Framers understood a president might sacrifice our national security, fail to defend the Constitution, and place his personal interests above all else. And they prescribed a remedy: impeachment.
We take no joy in this inquiry, but nor do we shrink from our responsibility.”

“We take no joy”. Oh, Schifty @RepAdamSchiff that’s likely to be your biggest lie yet. I imagine you doing cartwheels down the corridors of the secreted basement inquiry rooms.
