The dark truth about the Democrats is coming to the surface. There will be major consequences.
Because now a top Democrat has been implicated in treasonous crimes according to a new whistleblower’s account.
Schiff and the Deep State Tried to Torpedo Trump’s Presidency
Fresh revelations from FBI memos handed over by Director Kash Patel to Congress expose a calculated effort by Democrats, led by then-Rep. Adam Schiff, to undermine Donald Trump’s presidency through illegal leaks of classified information tied to the discredited Russiagate scandal. A longtime Democratic intelligence officer on the House Intelligence Committee repeatedly alerted the FBI starting in 2017 about Schiff’s approval of these leaks, aimed at smearing Trump and pushing for his indictment.
The whistleblower, a Democrat who called himself a friend to both Schiff and former Republican Chairman Devin Nunes, labeled the leaks as “unethical,” “illegal,” and “treasonous.” He claimed Schiff hid behind the Constitution’s speech and debate clause to avoid prosecution, though no official legal opinion from the Attorney General or Solicitor General backs that up as law.
Justice Department officials showed scant interest in pursuing Schiff back then, echoing the same excuse, sources told reporters. In a 2023 FBI interview, the whistleblower described attending a meeting where Schiff green-lit the leaks: “When working in this capacity, [redacted staffer’s name] was called to an all-staff meeting by SCHIFF. In this meeting, SCHIFF stated the group would leak classified information which was derogatory to President of the United States DONALD J. TRUMP. SCHIFF stated the information would be used to indict President TRUMP.”
He added that after voicing concerns, “unnamed members of the meeting reassured that they would not be caught leaking classified information.” Similar warnings went to the FBI’s Washington field office as early as 2017, right after Trump’s inauguration. While statutes of limitations block most prosecutions now, the timing stings as Schiff faces a recent Justice Department referral for possible mortgage fraud.
Patel slammed the scheme: “For years, certain officials used their positions to selectively leak classified information to shape political narratives. It was all done with one purpose: to weaponize intelligence and law enforcement for political gain. Those abuses eroded public trust in our institutions. The FBI will now lead the charge, with our partners at DOJ, and Congress will have the chance to uncover how political power may have been weaponized and to restore accountability.”
Schiff relentlessly peddled false Trump-Russia collusion tales, touting Christopher Steele’s debunked dossier and reading baseless claims into the congressional record in March 2017. The whistleblower flagged the FBI that year, naming Rep. Eric Swalwell as a likely leaker and highlighting efforts to target Trump’s first national security adviser, Mike Flynn.
The Democratic staffer claimed he lost his job for lacking “party loyalty” after objecting to the leaks. A Republican colleague told the FBI the firing stemmed from refusal to join a “systematic process through which leaks were effected,” with notes routed to Schiff for leak decisions.
The whistleblower traced the shift to August 2016, as the election heated up. In September 2016, staffers admitted feeding journalists “on background” info about Russian election activity. By October, whispers spread that Schiff eyed the CIA director spot if Hillary Clinton won. Trump’s victory left Schiff “particularly upset,” viewing it as a “constitutional crisis.” By February 2017, “all h*ll broke loose.”
At a February 13, 2017, meeting, the staff director pushed for a joint inquiry like the 9/11 Commission, urging use of Intelligence Community contacts to gather facts for public release via media pressure. The whistleblower saw this as “an explicit request to gather classified information for public disclosure.”
He detailed a redacted figure directing outreach for Flynn-Russia info, with a staffer admitting “everything is directed at Trump and trying to get him impeached. Flynn just happened to be the issue of the day.” A summer 2017 leak of a sensitive document viewed by Schiff and Swalwell appeared in the news “almost verbatim,” prompting a warning from an intelligence agency counsel.
Despite multiple FBI interviews over six years, including a mock grand jury, DOJ dropped it, citing congressional immunity—though the whistleblower disputed that protection applied.
These memos fit a pattern of Democratic maneuvers to block Trump’s 2016 win and hobble his administration. Declassified documents released by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard in July 2025 show Obama directed a false January 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment claiming Russia aimed to help Trump, using substandard reporting and the Steele dossier over CIA objections. Gabbard stated the evidence reveals “a treasonous conspiracy in 2016 committed by officials at the highest level of our government” to “subvert the will of the American people and enact what was essentially a years-long coup.”
Prior IC assessments contradicted this, noting Russia “probably not trying … to influence the election by using cyber means” and no impact on vote counts. Yet, after a December 9, 2016, meeting with Clapper, Brennan, Rice, Kerry, Lynch, and McCabe, Obama tasked a new assessment that flipped the script, leaking false claims to outlets like The Washington Post.
The DOJ has now launched a grand jury probe into these Russiagate origins, based on Gabbard’s referral, targeting potential crimes by Obama-era officials despite lapsed statutes in some cases. Attorney General Pam Bondi is pushing forward, citing “clear cause for deep concern.”
Schiff clashed with Nunes in 2018 over the FISA memo, which exposed the dossier’s role in warrants against Carter Page and hidden biases. Democrats falsely insisted no FISA abuse occurred: “FBI and DOJ officials did not ‘abuse’ the FISA process, omit material information, or subvert this vital tool to spy on the Trump campaign.” They added, “In fact, DOJ and the FBI would have been remiss in their duty to protect the country had they not sought a FISA warrant and repeated renewals to conduct temporary surveillance of Carter Page, someone the FBI assessed to be an agent of the Russian government.”
Schiff boasted in August 2018 of “plenty of evidence of collusion or conspiracy in plain sight,” repeating it in April 2019. Mueller’s March 2019 report found no criminal collusion, and Inspector General Horowitz’s December 2019 findings exposed 17 FISA errors, the dossier’s “central and essential” role, and concealed exculpatory info.
Durham’s 2023 report confirmed no evidence of collusion at Crossfire Hurricane’s start and zero corroborated Steele allegations. It named Schiff for pressuring researchers to probe Trump-Russia links, with one feeling “threatened.”
Congress censured Schiff in 2023 for spreading “false accusations that the Trump campaign colluded with Russia” and entering Steele claims into the record. Biden pardoned Schiff in January 2025 over January 6 probes, but Schiff called it “unwise and unnecessary,” blaming Trump’s “improper threats.”
