He could be called No Drama Schiff as opposed to the big mouths named Weiner and Grayson. Where are they now?

Hmmm. What to make of this?
When they start that, other Democrats have to speak up and defend him. They have to fight back, blow for blow. I daresay the countryâs been waiting for Democrats to fight and people (other than the hopelessly unfit to vote at all) will like it. My sixth sense tells me the current feistiness is getting noticed, and itâs turning some heads.

But House committee is still probably going to continue to be a ridiculous compromised mess anyway. If anything saves the day it will probably be the Senate version.

Thatâs the lady wife of Eric The Clueless who BTW is carrying a spawn. Good news for none of us.
Yeah I agree.
A hot temper isnât a bad thing to have if youâre in Congress but itâs a terrible characteristic for a president or a cabinet member.

I think Schiff will hold enough feet to the fire to make this thing move forward. Nunes wasnât having it, but these other guys know Schiff is a force to be reckoned with.

He was demoted from voting council, but still has top security clearance and is eligible to attend all meetings. I read this article yesterday which sure didnât bring me happiness: http://www.newsweek.com/bannon-will-be-fine-579713
There is also a video of Alex Jones going off on Schiff. He is obviously a threat to them.

The ranting and raving does not do good for people like Elizabeth Warren. I love her and she makes sense on policy, but she gets way too theatrical sometimes, and it turns off centrist voters. She does not need to put on a show, she already has substance. And I said before Castroâs statement that people will be going to jail was totally unnecessary and counterproductive. It was self serving, and unprofessional for a person on the committee to be saying that.
Schiffâs MO is perfect, heâs a pro. Love to see him in a debate, he would shred his opponent with out even raising his voice.

It was the he had only attended 1 meeting, until yesterday - after he was demoted. Wonder what he is trying to accomplish because the move only makes him look like he has gone from all powerful (donât even bother to attend the meetings) to pathetic (oops its important, Iâll go to the meeting I am still allowed to go to - that I have skipped all but one time in the past.)
She inspires us â which we desperately need, but she also is so blunt that she becomes a huge target. Good leadership requires a special combination of intelligence, sophisticated communication skills and personality. We donât see it often â we get more posturing than authenticity â which is why when Obama showed up he had such an enormous impact. Trump actually knows this and it drives his jealous ego crazy.

Just so. But we need some people with a fire in their belly too, because as many people as Warrenâs in your facedness turns off, Schiffâs intellectuality turns off others. Iâm speaking here of the Independent voters, not Democrats per se. But we canât win with only Democrats per se, so we need diverse messengers â the big tent as a literal gestalt.
@feathered_head âboth the fighters and the thinkers.â Exactly.

Bannon is gonna be at the meetings now because the one who installed him in the White House â Rebekah Mercer â is demanding he give her moneyâs worth. I encourage anyone who has not read Jane Mayerâs article in The New Yorker on the Mercers take the opportunity to read it. Its eye-popping. And it puts into perspective the internet privacy order that Trump just signed. If the Mercers get what they want, we will never again have a free and fair election. They are that dangerous â and Bannon is their mole in our White House.

Schiff is correct about Bannon not belonging in the White House in any capacity, not even as a tourist. It is however equally true that Little Donnie Trump does not belong there either.
