Federalist Nails Adam Schiff For High Crimes Against Jim Jordan And Alexander Hamilton

OMG everybody, just drop the contempt of Congress case against Mark Meadows right now, because The Federalist has completely blown the lid off the conspiracy to railroad Meadows, or at least an extremely tiny thing that House January 6 Select Committee member Rep. Adam Schiff (D-California) did while making the case for Meadows to be held in contempt. Truly, this is the most egregious case of congressional dishonesty in history, at least since that time Schiff did a treason paraphrase of Trump's call to the president of Ukraine.

Why yes, that. This is every bit as scandalous as that non-issue, the worst crime in which was Schiff's calling his words a "parody" when they were clearly a "pastiche."

So, uh, what's the Federalist on about exactly? Federalist co-founder Sean Davis goes into exhaustive detail to show that in one slide during his speech calling for Meadows to be held in contempt of Congress, Schiff used a brief excerpt of a longer text sent to Meadows the night before the January 6 insurrection, but didn't say that it had been edited.

Worse, Davis contends, the excerpt made it seem like the member of Congress who sent the message was telling Meadows to order Pence to throw out electors that he unilaterally decided weren't constitutional and to replace them with cosplay doofus electors instead. It was kind of a theme prior to the election certification.
