Adam Schiff's Aide Threatened Two Researchers When They Balked at a Demand to Work on Schiff's Russiagate Psyop, Telling Them, "We're in Charge Now"

Thereby strongly suggesting that the federal money that university researchers rely upon might be slashed if they didn't play ball.

Chuck Ross for the Free Beacon:

Staffers for Democratic congressman Adam Schiff (Calif.) and Senator Jack Reed (R.I.) threatened two university researchers to force them to help with an investigation into former president Donald Trump's ties to Russia, the researchers told Special Counsel John Durham.

The researchers, from Georgia Tech University, told Durham that they were invited to Washington, D.C., in November 2018 to provide what they thought was a briefing about the school's federal research contracts. Instead, they were lured into a meeting with staff members working for Schiff at the House Intelligence Committee and for Reed, the top Democrat on the Senate Armed Services Committee. The researchers said the Democratic staffers asked them to analyze a news article about alleged links between Trump's company and Russia's Alfa Bank.

When they balked at the request because it was "inappropriate" conduct for a public university, the Democratic staffers issued what one researcher believed was a "mild threat." A staffer for Reed told the researchers that "we are now in charge," and a staffer for Schiff pointed out the Democrat would soon take over as chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, one researcher told Durham.

Durham's office investigated whether the Democrats' pressure campaign merited prosecution "for contract fraud or abuse of government resources," though no charges were filed.

Hey Allahpundit, how's your left-liberal crusade to protect America from the Corruption of Trump workin' out for you?

Heard your newsletter is free now. "Free" costs less than an actual money cost, right?

Britt Hume decides it's the perfect day to praise the straight-shooting professionalism of the FBI.

Brit Hume @brithume

Say what you will about the FBI, its statement on the Durham report acknowledges there was serious wrongdoing and says it has taken steps to prevent a repeat. Most of the media outlets who were complicit in this disgraceful episode are still clinging to their falsehoods.

Oh it said it took steps, huh?

And it fired and/or demoted who, exactly?

The media always claims it's "taken steps" to prevent its last fake news disaster -- but no steps are in fact taken. It pushes the next fake news disaster as eagerly as it pushed the last fake news disaster.

Peas in a pod. No wonder there's a Mutual Admiration Society thing going on here.


I mean -- that Christopher Wray, what an honest, candid fellow with no taint of corruption whatsoever. A true "journalist" like Brit Hume looks at Christopher Wray and immediately Sees Into His Soul and knows he's just a well-meaning, selfless public servant who would never lie or cover up for his own criminal acts.

Antifa is just an idea!!!
