IJ Review reports, “Rep. Dan Bishop (R-NC) took a swipe at House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), calling him the ‘Jussie Smollett of Congress.’

Fox Business Network’s Elizabeth MacDonald explained Thursday evening, ‘Democrat Adam Schiff saying that even though there are many discredited claims in the debunked Steele Dossier, that the [Department of Justice Inspector General] and multiple experts have said this is totally false, he’s still thinking parts of it are trust trustworthy and going after Trump.’

She played a clip of Schiff’s interview with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer. The anchor pointed out that a series of investigations and lawsuits have discredited allegations included in the Steele Dossier.

“Adam Schiff is the Jussie Smollett of Congress,” @RepDanBishop said. “He just hasn’t had his trial yet.”

He asked Schiff, ‘Do you worry, Congressman, that your credibility, other Democrats’ credibility could be hurt by that?’

Schiff replied, ‘No. And people who have been following the investigation understand the very limited role that the Steele Dossier played.’

MacDonald accused Schiff of ‘misleading again,’ adding, ‘The Steele dossier did not play a limited role. The DOJ inspector general noted the FBI used the Steele dossier as a basis to get FISA wiretaps – meant for terrorists – to go after the Trump campaign. There goes Adam Schiff misleading again.’

When asked for his reaction, Bishop said, ‘Adam Schiff is the Jussie Smollett of Congress. He just hasn’t had his trial yet.”

Fox News reports, “Guest co-host on ‘The View’ Morgan Ortagus confronted Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., Tuesday over his role in promoting the discredited anti-Trump Steele dossier.

During a segment in which Schiff was invited on the show to promote a new book, Ortagus accused him of potentially helping to spread Russian disinformation through his promotion of the dossier and suggested his credibility had been diminished because of his actions.

‘You defended, promoted and even read into the congressional record the Steele dossier. We know last week the main source of the dossier was indicted by the FBI for lying about most of the key claims in that dossier. Do you have any reflections on your role in promoting this to the American people?’ Ortagus asked Schiff.”
