Watch: Trump Lawyer Nails Schiff Then Causes Him To Freeze Up In His Chair
As some of us young kids say, President Trump’s lawyer Jay Sekulow dropped the BOOM on House Manager Rep. Adam Schiff this week entrapping him then causing him to freeze up in his chair.
While Sekulow was speaking he said that if new witnesses are allowed he would like Hunter Biden, Joe Biden, the whistleblower, and Adam Schiff to testify. According to witnesses in the room, Adam Schiff just froze in his chair because he knows that Republicans are already touted there is support among Republicans to call them as witnesses in the event witnesses are allowed.
Holy Schiff! Jay Sekulow just said he wanted Adam Schiff, Hunter Biden, Joe Biden and the whistleblower to testify if witnesses were called.
Adam Schiff froze in his seat.

But Sekulow wasn’t done and nailed him to the wall when he asked Schiff is he’d proved his case.
Sekulow: “After 31 or 32 times you said you proved every aspect of your case… [pauses for response] That’s what you said.”
Schiff: “We did.”
Sekulow: “Well then I don’t think we need any witnesses.”
Sekulow: ✋

By all accounts, the House Managers had a terrible week when it was time for Senators to ask them questions. Schiff’s games during the week have led to Republicans in the Senate unifying.
One moment in particular infuriated Republicans, Schiff said that he will not give the Senate testimony of the interview done with the Intelligence Committee Inspector General, instead, he demanded the Senate will have to call witnesses.
That’s like telling a judge when he asks you to submit evidence to do it yourself.
During another question Schiff was pinned down by Senator Lindsey Graham and Ted Cruz in a question about abuse of power. The Senators asked a hypothetical question about what if President Barack Obama asked for an investigation into one of Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney sons. Schiff said that no president should ever ask the Department of Justice to investigate a political rival. When it was Jay Sekulow’s turn he pointed out that was what President Barack Obama’s DOJ did to then-candidate Donald Trump in Operation Crossfire Hurricane.
What a stunning turn of events today to hear Adam Schiff declare from the well of the United States Senate that it is impeachable for a sitting President to allow the Department of Justice to investigate a political rival’s campaign 🤔
2016. Crossfire Hurricane.

What’s done Schiff in is his refusal to turn over evidence/testimony transcripts with the ICIG while screaming for a fair trial. I think Senator Lindsey Graham put it best…
Of all the insane things being said about this impeachment debacle – and there is a lot to choose from – one of the most ridiculous is to say Senate Republicans are “Blocking Witnesses.”
This is an outrageous claim.

FACT:
It was the House of Representatives who refused to pursue the testimony of the witnesses because they wanted to impeach the President before Christmas.
Only in Washington would someone call that decision “Blocking Witnesses.”
