It was only a few days before President Trump made Sen. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) deputy director of the FBI, but Dan Bongino called him out on his popular podcast.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat\u2019s the matter with Adam Schiff?\u201d \u201cI really want you to look at the Russia collusion hoax again today,\u201d Bongino said at the start of a segment.<\/p>\n

When Bongino said that the story was told many years ago, he said, \u201cI\u2019m going to be honest with you. \u201cI do not wish to move on.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had the FBI in conjunction with the Department of Justice, officials in Congress, foreign governments and intel people fabricate a story, invent a story that could have caused and done serious long-term harm to international relations with a nuclear-powered foe,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s kind of a big freakin\u2019 deal.\u201d<\/p>\n

He then said, \u201cListen to me\u2014this is going to be very important in the next few days.\u201d This may have been a hint that he was about to be hired by the FBI.<\/p>\n

\n
\u201cThis is not going away. It can\u2019t happen again, so I want to know what went wrong. For Democrats only. I am not a Republican. Not to a Libertarian. \u201cNot to any American citizen,\u201d Bongino said.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cYou don\u2019t get to change the course of electoral politics by making up a story, taking over the justice system, and then giving a fake story the appearance of being true,\u201d he said. \u201cYou don\u2019t get to do that.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy am I talking about that now?\u201d Who was in charge of that circus, anyway? \u201cYes, Adam Schiff, and no, I\u2019m not giving up,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s important to note that Schiff was given an early pardon by former President Joe Biden for his work on the Democratic-led Jan. 6 Commission, even though he said it was \u201cunnecessary\u201d and \u201cunwise.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a statement, Schiff said, \u201cI continue to believe that giving pardons to a committee that did such important work to uphold the law was unnecessary and, because it sets a bad example, foolish.\u201d \u201cBut I certainly understand why\u00a0President Biden\u00a0believed he needed to take this step in light of the persistent and baseless threats issued by Donald Trump and individuals who are now some of his law enforcement nominees.\u201d<\/p>\n

Schiff did not reject the pardon outright, which is important to note.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
