Adam Schiff Calls Lindsey Graham the Leader of the GOP’s “Crackpot Caucus”

Adam Schiff Calls Lindsey Graham the Leader of the GOP’s “Crackpot Caucus”

On a recent appearance on low-rated cable news outlet MSNBC, Adam “Shifty” Schiff called members of the GOP, “negative, bile-filled performance artists” and part of the Republican “crackpot caucus.”

His scathing comments were in response to host Lawrence O’Donnell’s question about what Schiff thought about Senator Lindsey Graham’s (R-South Carolina) disturbing prediction that there would be “riots in the streets” if former President Donald Trump is criminally indicted.

“I think with Lindsey Graham, you see some signs of conscience flare up from time to time that are quickly extinguished,” Schiff quipped to host Lawrence O’Donnell.

Schiff, who currently chairs the House Intelligence Committee and serves on the House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th attacks on the Capitol, also condemned right-wing lawmakers who have “tethered themselves” to Trump’s brand of grievance politics.

“Others,” such as Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Georgia), Schiff continued, fall into his “category” of “kind of negative, bile-filled performance artists.”

Schiff noted that “happily at the moment, those are small in number in Congress.” But he stressed to O’Donnell that “there are a lot more where she came from who are running, who have won Republican primaries in very red districts, and who appeared to be poised to join the Congress.”

Schiff then lamented, “you know, it’s just a staggering turn of events in the country, but also when you take the long view and think about some of the giants who once served in the Congress – people of principle like John Lewis and so many others – and now you see sort of the crackpot caucus growing within the GOP conference. What a terrible turn of events it is for the country.”

    I’m surprised that shit for brains hasn’t been taken out and had the shit kicked out of him, although he looks like he has. He and his type are exactly what is wrong with the country. If the dims force a civil war on us I only hope that cowardly POS is one of the first to get it.

    Adam Schiff who follows Pelosi about so closely that were she to stop short it would take a week to pull his head out of her butt . A pencil neck dweeb trying to be relavent in DC politics and failing misurably . All this mental miget has going for him is bane calling . Until he started with his failed attempts to impeach Donald Trump , no one had ever heard of him but thanks to the lame stream media we are forced to endure his self righteous tirades and vacuous expression and countanence almost daily .

      Adam Scifter is a biggest liar I have ever know. He lies so much, he does not even know the truth. He is the one who start this fiasco abut Rusisa. This guy does not know the truth even if it bites him in the butt. Shame he have these kind of people to make decision for our Government. I believed when Trump return to be a president, he will destroy all these people.

    Both of these clowns have infected Washington for far too long. Do they actually find people so stupid as to continously re-elect them, or are have all of our elections been rigged?

    Yes, Adam, Graham is a crackpot that’s why he’ll make a fine Democrat. Tske him off our hsnds, please!

    Bill, Sadly for Republicans, Adams comments are spot on. Back when graham and McCain were friends, Lindsey seemed to have a conscience, but then he sold himself to the magawing of the party. As far as the others mentioned, there really are a lot of republicans in congress who are totally out to lunch: MTG, boebert, Gaetz, cawthorn, gym Jordan-the list goes on and on…
