Adam Schiff isn't backing down: 'Undoubtedly there is collusion' by writerknowles
Rep. Adam Schiff, the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, isn’t ready to move on from his investigation of Russian meddling in the 2016 election, and possible collusion with the Trump campaign, despite the decision by Attorney General William Barr not to bring charges against the president.
“Barr auditioned for the job with a memo saying a president cannot obstruct justice,” Schiff tweeted. “Last weekend, Barr did the job he was hired to do, and attempted to exonerate the President on obstruction. The American people must see the full Mueller Report, not a biased summary.” With Trump supporters and the president taking a victory lap after Barr released his summary, Schiff also made clear this week that his committee will not be moving on to other issues now that Mueller has completed his report.
