Call Off the Investigation! Adam Schiff (Yes, THAT One) Says Criminal Probe of Eric Swalwell Is Meritless – Twitchy

Not unlike Wile E. Coyote ordering another delivery from ACME because this time he’s going to be able to get that pesky Roadrunner, Sen. Adam Schiff remains undeterred by the fact that all the Dem lawfare against Donald Trump backfired horribly for his party. 

As we told you yesterday, Schiff is still determined to “get” Trump on… anything he can make up (again):

Holding the Trump administration accountable for its flagrant lawlessness may not always happen immediately.

But through litigation and oversight, it is still possible.

You see, that’s because “no one is above the law.” Except perhaps for Democrats. At least that seems to be the “rule” on the Left. 

That brings us to Rep. Eric Swalwell, who once said this which was directed at Trump:

If you commit fraud in this country, you will be indicted and justice will be served. Plain and simple. #CollegeCheatingScandal

No one is above the law *cough* Donald Trump *cough*

Because chickens like to come home to roost and often do so in a coop of projection, Swalwell has been referred for a criminal probe. The allegation: Mortgage fraud.

Swalwell, who had been applauding the targeting of political opponents over the last few years, suddenly doesn’t think “no one is above the law” should apply anymore:

We’re sure Swalwell will take help from anywhere he can get it, but in this case the fellow member of Congress vouching for his integrity is somebody else who has been alleged to have committed mortgage fraud. Here’s what the preemptively pardoned Sen. Adam Schiff had to say about Swalwell’s criminal probe referral: 

Another meritless attack on one of Donald Trump’s most effective opponents.

Another terrible abuse of the Department of Justice.

Another example of the president ignoring the affordability crisis and focusing on his petty personal grievances instead. https://t.co/z6sjU8ED7i

First of all, how would Schiff have any idea if the criminal investigation referral for Swalwell is “meritless”? Second, the Dems need constant reminders:

The Left has now made it clear that some people should be above the law.

With friends like Schiff, Swalwell doesn’t need any enemies!
