California Sen. Adam Schiff (D) is one of the most insidious Democrats in Congress, and that’s saying a lot these days. He reminds me of former FBI Director James Comey, since they both ooze fake sincerity and piousness even though their hands are dirtier than a kid’s in a mud puddle.
When news broke Friday that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard was stepping away from her post because her husband had been diagnosed with a rare and serious form of bone cancer, decent people immediately felt for her and prayed for her husband’s recovery.
“Decent” isn’t an adjective used frequently to describe the man known as “Shifty Schiff,” however, and he wasted no time before trashing Gabbard for her DNI tenure. Did he really think it was appropriate to drop a nakedly partisan job performance review just hours after she’d revealed her husband of 11 years could be in mortal danger?
I’ve run out of ways to describe "disgusting" when it comes to Schiff.
My thoughts go out to Tulsi Gabbard and her family, as her husband battles this serious health problem. I hope and pray that he makes a speedy and full recovery.

While the circumstances around her departure are deserving of our sympathy, let’s be clear: Tulsi Gabbard’s only…

Why didn't you stop there, Adam? Because you seemingly have a black hole where your heart is supposed to be:
While the circumstances around her departure are deserving of our sympathy, let’s be clear: Tulsi Gabbard’s only positive contribution to our nation's national security is her resignation.
She politicized intelligence. She dismantled critical agencies keeping Americans safe. She weaponized the IC to pursue baseless election fraud claims. And more.
We must ensure that her tenure — marked by a devotion to the person of the president and not to the security of the country — represents a terrible exception at DNI and not the new normal.
Time to pull out the thesaurus: this message is disgusting, repugnant, loathsome, inhuman, heartless, detestable… There are even plenty more applicable words, but they’re not fit for publication.

The outrage was widespread, as numerous politicians and pundits were just plain appalled:

Conservative author David Limbaugh: “You are the worst kind of unmitigated, heartless jerk.” Wrote another commenter: “This from the dirtbag who lied about Russian collusion for 3 years.” There are many, many more similar comments; take a look here.
Of course, we’re talking about today’s Democrat party, so the Shifty One wasn’t the only vicious leftist to jump in. Here’s an utterly cruel post from Rep. Shri Thanedar (MI-10), who RedState’s Sister Toldjah describes as “one of the more obnoxious Democrats in the House of Representatives”:
Tulsi Gabbard is resigning. Good riddance.

The Iran war has been the biggest display of intelligence incompetence in decades.
Sometimes it seems overdramatic to declare that many Dems have quite simply lost their souls, and then you see the rampant inhumanity displayed in instances like this and you realize it’s not histrionic in the slightest — it’s all too often true.
Anyone is free to disagree with anyone else, but there’s a time and a place to do it. Friday, the day Tulsi Gabbard just announced tragic news, is certainly not that day. This episode is emblematic of the bitterness, rage, and hate that have consumed today’s Democrats, and it's beyond me how they look in the mirror or claim to have an ounce of moral authority.
