Fanatics can justify any action, and House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff this week demonstrated where that mindset leads. In his rush to paint Donald Trump as a lawbreaker, Mr. Schiff has himself trampled law and responsibility.

That’s the bottom line in Mr. Schiff’s stunning decision to subpoena the phone records of Rudy Giuliani and others. Mr. Schiff divulged the phone logs this week in his Ukraine report, thereby revealing details about the communications of Trump attorneys Jay Sekulow and Mr. Giuliani, ranking Intelligence Committee member Devin Nunes, reporter John Solomon and others. The media is treating this as a victory, when it is a disgraceful breach of ethical and legal propriety.

If nothing else, Mr. Schiff claims the ignominious distinction of being the first congressman to use his official powers to spy on a fellow member and publish the details. His report also means open season on members of the press. Mr. Giuliani over months has likely spoken to dozens of political figures and reporters—and the numbers, dates and length of those calls are now in Democrats’ hot little hands. Who gets the Schiff treatment next?

[…]

Whatever his role in the Ukraine affair, Mr. Giuliani remains the president’s personal lawyer. Law enforcement must present a judge with powerful evidence to get permission to vitiate attorney-client privilege. Mr. Schiff ignored all that, and made himself privy to data that could expose the legal strategies of the man he is investigating.

Mr. Giuliani did have notice that Democrats wanted some of his phone records. The Intelligence Committee sent a subpoena on Sept. 30, and gave him until Oct. 15 to comply. Yet before Mr. Giuliani even had an opportunity to respond, Mr. Schiff separately moved to seize his records from a phone carrier, sending his subpoena to AT&T on Sept. 30 as well.

Mr. Schiff purposely kept that action secret. This guaranteed that the only entity involved with a decision over whether to release the records was AT&T. And that gave Mr. Schiff all the cards, since companies fear political retribution far more than violating their customers’ privacy.

I don't believes the Deep State Dims understand the future repercussions of the new precedents they've established in their thus far failed attempt to remove Trump from office......the boomerang effect is going to be a mutha fricker if the Dims fail to destroy Trump.

Dems are notoriously short sighted. They lose, so they want to change the rules. But the rule change always come back to haunt them.

Biden rule/ merrick garland. Popular vote/electoral college.


Dems insist on changing the rules to favor themselves and get furious when their opponents co opt the new rules against them

They never do. It comes from a sense of expecting to never let go of the grip of power.

Ask Harry Reid how that worked out.

I'll beg to differ, but when perp walks are the only currency that matters these days, I'll cede your cynicism. Wait till Schiff's Mossad connections go prime time.

The phone companies are in massive legal peril on this. A subpeona from a Congressional committees is not enough to compel phone records from a phone company, a signed warrant is required, and there are stiff penalties for violating customers privacy.

trump needs to burn that muther down to the ground with a $500 billion dollar lawsuit and put them out of business

a clear and convincing message needs to be sent world wide that conspiring with democrats to circumvent privacy rights and civil liberties with end your company and burn it to the ground

never again should any company feel they should cooperate with a supena unless a judge orders them to

God I wish schiff would come see me alone all by himself. There so many questions I’d just love to ask him and pick his brain of so much.
