Adam Schiff has launched a legal defense fund.
This comes as he is facing a federal investigation for alleged mortgage fraud.
A spokeswoman for Schiff told Fox News, “It’s clear that Donald Trump and his MAGA allies will continue weaponizing the justice process to attack Senator Schiff for holding this corrupt administration accountable…This fund will ensure he can fight back against these baseless smears while continuing to do his job.”
Sen. Adam Schiff launched a legal defense fund as the California Democrat faces a federal investigation for alleged mortgage fraud and President Donald Trump repeatedly condemns him for years of allegedly promoting the “Russiagate” hoax.
“It’s clear that Donald Trump and his MAGA allies will continue weaponizing the justice process to attack Senator Schiff for holding this corrupt administration accountable,” a spokeswoman for Schiff told Fox News Digital on Tuesday evening. “This fund will ensure he can fight back against these baseless smears while continuing to do his job.”
The legal fund, dubbed “Senator Schiff Legal Defense Fund,” was filed with the Internal Revenue Service Thursday, according to the New York Times.
Trump and Schiff have long been political foes, stretching back to the president’s first administration, when Schiff — who was serving in the U.S. House at the time — oversaw the first impeachment trial against Trump in 2020 for alleged abuse of power and obstruction of Congress, and for repeatedly promoting the narrative that Trump’s 2016 campaign colluded with Russia.
Adam Schiff was one of the main pushers of the Russia collusion hoax.
Schiff has said on many occasions, “No one is above the law.”
As ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee, Schiff leaked information that he hoped would implicate then-President Donald Trump in so-called “Russia collusion,” often lying to the public about it.
Schiff also tried to suppress findings by then-chairman Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) into the origins of the Russia investigation, and targeted Kash Patel, a key investigator — who now is the head of the FBI.
When Schiff became chairman of the committee, he launched an investigation that would lead to the first Trump impeachment, lying to the public about his staff’s contact with a so-called “whistleblower.” Schiff promised the whistleblower would testify, then reneged on that promise and invented a false right for the whistleblower not to be named in public. He conducted hearings in secret, leaking reports about what was said that often turned out to be the opposite of what actually happened, and suppressing contrary testimony.
…
Schiff is now under criminal investigation or mortgage fraud, after allegedly falsely claiming two homes as primary residences and receiving below-market interests rates.
“No one is above the law,” he used to say.
