Schiff on MSNBC: "It Will Take a Decade" before DOJ Recovers from Trump's Politicization



On Thursday, June 10, 2021, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), Chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, joined MSNBC's The Rachel Maddow Show to discuss new reporting that the Department of Justice inappropriately targeted individuals associated with the House Intelligence Committee, in an investigation that is now closed, but exemplifies Trump’s repeated and flagrant demands that the DOJ act as a cudgel against his political opponents and members of the media. Schiff called for the Inspector General to investigate this and other cases that suggest the weaponization of law enforcement by a corrupt president.

This is purely Dumdum truing to "get" people he didn't see as 200% loyal, and if someone wasn't 100% loyal to him, they were obviously traitors who couldn't possibly be doing their jobs, they were out to destroy him, which meant they wee out to destroy the US.

This is how the malignant narcissist processes things.

What is really astonishing is that Barr went along with it, he's the one with the most to lose. I hope he does, too.
