Senator Adam Schiff, former House Intelligence Committee Chairman, faces allegations of leaking classified information during the Trump-Russia investigation to discredit former President Donald Trump, as detailed in declassified FBI documents and a DOJ Inspector General report.
A Democratic whistleblower, a career intelligence staffer, claimed Schiff directed leaks to shape political narratives, with FBI 302 reports now under congressional review.
The DOJ previously declined to pursue investigations, citing congressional immunity and insufficient evidence, while U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro is currently investigating these “serious” allegations, amid strong conservative sentiment on X framing Schiff’s actions as unethical and potentially treasonous.
