United States Representative and House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., blasted House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., over McCarthy's subservience to former President Donald Trump as well as his willingness to kowtow to conspiracy theorist Congresspersons Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., Paul Gosar, R-Ariz., and Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., in order to get elected as the next Speaker of the House.
On Sunday's edition of CNN's State of the Union, Schiff began by chastising McCarthy's dismissal of the evidence obtained by probes conducted by Congress that showed how operatives within Trump's 2016 presidential campaign solicited help from Russia to defeat Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.
