โThe Select Committee on Monday created and provided Representative Schiff a graphic to use during the business meeting quoting from a text message from โa lawmaker' to Mr. Meadows,โ the spokesman wrote. โThe graphic read, โOn January 6, 2021, Vice President Mike Pence, as President of the Senate, should call out all electoral votes that he believes are unconstitutional as no electoral votes at all.'โ

Schiff is up to his same old bovine excrement with this crapollo. For four years in two different coup attempts he insisted he had data which showed how crooked President Trump was-he successfully showed only how corrupt and deceitful he personally was, instead. This latest attempt was aimed at making it impossible for Trump to run again in 2024, and in that sense it was another before-the-fact coup attempt. In a sane world Schiff would be punished for his treason against the country and the president-the punishment would involve a length of rope.
