Wow, even CNN has finally turned on Adam Schiff due to his continued lies.
Dana Bash, host of CNN’s “State of the Union,” grilled Schiff over his previously false statements about President Donald Trump and Russia.
“You said that there was direct evidence of the fact that Donald Trump colluded with Russia back in 2016″ Bash said to Schiff.
“Special counsel Robert Mueller said in his report -quote- ‘The investigation did not establish that members of the Trump campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government.’”
She continued:
“Republicans argue that’s proof that you used your position on the Intelligence Committee to intentionally mislead Americans, which is why you should not be on that committee.”
Schiff seemed rattled by these comments, and simply doubled down on the same debunked talking points that got him in trouble in the first place.

Bash also hit Schiff for his infamous false claim that he never spoke to a whistleblower over the first Trump impeachment:
"Ahead of the first Trump impeachment, you said the committee had not spoken to a whistleblower. In fact, that turned out not to be true."

“I should have been more clear in my answer” he says…
Listen to Schiff try to juggle all of his lies.
Just when it seemed like CNN deserved points for honesty, their chyron suddenly claimed that Schiff was a republican!
Adam Schiff pressed by Dana Bash over his lies for pretty much the first time in countless CNN appearances over the past 7 years. As if on cue, chyron writer makes him a Republican. https://t.co/mf1oZPFBh8 pic.twitter.com/2y4g6P3iG1

I exposed this on Fox News years ago. A pathological political liar in high office. Time for real Justice. Hold Schiff accountable. “CNN Grills Adam Schiff Over False Impeachment Claims: In Fact, That Turned Out Not To Be True”

Daily Wire has more on the exchange:
Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), who was recently booted off the House Intelligence Committee, faced scrutiny during an interview on Sunday over past examples of him allegedly politicizing intelligence information for partisan gain.
Schiff made the remarks during an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union” with host Dana Bash while talking about losing his spot on the committee.
“You said that there was direct evidence of the fact that Donald Trump colluded with Russia back in 2016. Special counsel Robert Mueller said in his report — quote — ‘The investigation did not establish that members of the Trump campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government,’” Bash said. “Republicans argue that’s proof that you used your position the Intelligence Committee to intentionally mislead Americans, which is why you should not be on that committee.”
Schiff claimed that the report did not say that and that the report revealed that then-candidate Donald Trump’s campaign manager shared internal campaign polling data with a Russian agent. “To most Americans, that is collusion,” he claimed. “Now, whether it’s proof beyond a reasonable doubt of the crime of conspiracy — that’s what Bob Mueller was talking about — I have always distinguished between the two.”
Well…
Better late than never CNN, though I have questions about that conveniently timed chyron.
