Adam Schiff has become the public face of an impeachment inquiry into Donald Trump
WASHINGTON - For nearly three years, President Donald Trump has dismissed the investigations that have shadowed almost every day of his presidency as hoaxes and witch-hunts, and the people leading them as crooks and liars.
Schiff said in a statement that Trump “would much rather attack others than answer for his own conduct.” The inquiry has produced an intense partisan fight, and a flood of political advertising to match. But little of that has been directed at Schiff. Schiff, who represents a Los Angeles district, is a former federal prosecutor and a political ally of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. His public profile grew over the past two years as a sharp-spoken but seldom-ruffled defender of the investigation of Russian meddling in the 2016 U.S. election.
An investigation by U.S. Special Counsel Robert Mueller concluded that the Russian government sought to sway the election in Trump’s favor and that his campaign worked to benefit from those efforts, but did not find evidence to establish a conspiracy.
