Good day all. We all know what a steaming pile of Schiff Representative Adam Schiffhead is. He is a flat out liar who led the charge against the Greatest President of the 21st<\/sup> Century, Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We had to sit through years of his lies claiming that he had \u201cHard evidence\u201d that President Trump was working for the Russians. When the Republicans finally took control of the House, he was bounced from his committee assignments. Since then, he\u2019s decided that he should be the next Senator from Kalifornistan, replacing Dianne Feinstein. To that end, he\u2019s raising campaign funds. Now it seems that he\u2019s doing it in the traditional style of Democrats, (And a few Republican RINO\u2019s). He\u2019s steering taxpayer funds back to his donors. Here are the details from the Daily Caller<\/b>:<\/p>\n

Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff of California, who is running for the Senate in 2024, doled out $10 million through earmarks to defense contractors that donated to his campaigns, according to a report published on Monday by Politico. <\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Schiff, who is running against fellow Democratic Reps. Katie Porter and Barbara Lee, earmarked over $10 million of taxpayer money to five companies to develop military technologies between 2001 and 2007. These companies were found to have donated tens of thousands of dollars to his campaign, according<\/a> to a review of earmark records by Politico. <\/b><\/p>\n

I looked at the Politico story and they were kind enough to post the returns on investments<\/i><\/span> donations that Schiffhead received and the earmarks he arranged for his donors.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were always concerned about the pay-to-play aspects,\u201d wrote Steve Ellis, who runs the group \u201cTaxpayers of Common Sense,\u201d of Schiff\u2019s earmarks, to Politico. \u201cIf you\u2019re getting a campaign contribution and getting your earmark for that same company or for a client of that lobbyist, it has that perception.\u201d <\/b><\/p>\n

Good luck proving it. Most of the Democrats are pretty good at hiding their ill gotten gains, especially if they\u2019re not looking for increases in personal wealth, but are looking for more power and influence. (Senator Menendez (D-NJ), may be one who was more interested in personal wealth rather then power) Schiffhead looks like he\u2019s more interested in gaining power. The Daily Wire then breaks down the donations and what they paid Schiffhead, err, I mean donated to his campaign and what they got in return. For instance:<\/p>\n

The largest donor earmarks by Schiff, totaling $6 million, went to Smiths Detection, which was developing chemical weapons sensors for the military, while another $3 million went to Phasebridge, Inc., which was developing a Naval radar system. Both of these groups retained a lobbyist, Paul Magliocchetti, who around the same time donated $8,500 to Schiff\u2019s campaign committees. Magliocchetti was later convicted on federal charges of illegal campaign contributions and served 27 months in prison, Politico reported. <\/b><\/p>\n

So, Schiffhead was collecting bribes<\/i><\/span> campaign contributions from a guy who was busted for illegal campaign contributions.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

One of Schiffheads opponents for the soon to be late Dianne Feinstein, blasted earmarks.<\/p>\n

Schiff\u2019s opponent, Porter, attacked the use of earmarks in a video posted<\/a> on Twitter, now known as X, on July 25, which appeared to be subtly critical of Schiff. <\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cInstead of neutral experts looking at where the need is greatest, politicians up for reelection set taxpayer dollars aside for projects they choose for their own reasons,\u201d Porter said. \u201cThe solution to Washington gridlock isn\u2019t misdirected spending; it\u2019s an end to the dark money.\u201d <\/b><\/p>\n

The problem with banning so called \u201cDark Money\u201d is that you run head long into the 1st<\/sup> Amendment. What needs to be done is to end the earmarks. Actually, the entire budgeting system needs to be scrapped and rebuilt from the ground up, and that is going to take some serious thought. This lets out all of the Democrats of course and frankly, most of the Republicans.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Barbara Lee, by contrast, has defended the practice. \u201cI am not going to neglect my constituents, nor the state, by not bringing in as many federal projects \u2014 these are tax dollars. My constituents in the state deserve their tax dollars to be returned to the state,\u201d she said, according<\/a> to SpectrumNY1. <\/b><\/p>\n

Except that you are looting the taxpayers of other states to protect your phony baloney job. As far as I\u2019m concerned, this is just another case of a Democrat selling his office. Schiffhead is a crook, a liar and an all around pile of rotting horse manure. The sad part about all this is, he just might end up in the Senate instead of a prison cell where he belongs.<\/p>\n
