<p>Senator Adam Schiff (D-CA) had critics firing back over his recent comments at the Texas Tribune Festival — where he claimed that politicians should not use their power to render presidents or political parties “unsuccessful” due to their political differences.</p>
<p>Schiff, who was elected to fill the late Senator Dianne Feinstein’s (D-CA) seat in 2024, spent the previous 24 years in the House of Representatives — argued that it was a “ruinous idea” to allow “good politics” to stand in the way of doing the right thing for the American people.</p>

<p>“That attitude that you can make a president or a party unsuccessful, no matter what damage it might do to the country, because it’s good politics — we have to get past that ruinous idea,” he said. “We have to figure out a way to stop viewing each other as our enemy.”</p>
<p>“That solution will come when we figure out how to be better consumers of information and how to determine what’s true and what’s not true, how to stop rewarding advertising behemoths for dividing us the way they do,” he claimed.</p>
<p>Critics quickly called out the California senator, pointing to his own dogged efforts to render Trump “unsuccessful” or boot him out of office entirely.</p>
<p>“Dilbert” creator Scott Adams posted, “Schiff’s entire game depends on people not remembering what he said yesterday.”</p>

<p>Schiff spent most of Trump’s first term telling any media personality who would listen that he had proof of Trump’s “collusion” with Russia — proof that he never delivered. He then served as manager of President Donald Trump’s first impeachment in 2019, presenting a case that was so one-sided that it provoked an angry response from George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley.</p>
<p>“If you make a high crime and misdemeanor out of going to the courts, it is an abuse of power — it’s your abuse of power,” Turley said at the time. “Fast and narrow is not a good recipe for impeachment.”</p>
