Schiff uses illegal Stasi/KGB tactics to spy on Solomon, Giuliani, Nunes
written by L.J. Keith Dec 6, 2019
Adam Schiff is using East German, Stasi / KGB police state tactics as head of the Intelligence Committee to illegally spy on American citizens. Specifically, Schiff abuses his authority by subpoenaing phone records of fellow Congressman Devin Nunes, reporter John Solomon, and President Trumps’ personal attorney of record Rudy Giuliani.
This is an egregious violation of the civil rights and constitutional guarantees of these targeted citizens and of all Americans.
Shockingly AT&T and Verizon quickly gave the metadata to Schiff which they routinely refuse to provide to our nation’s intelligence services without a court-ordered warrant. More shockingly, Schiff used NSA programs to sift through the data before providing it to a compliant media.
Schiff made broad suggestions of wrongdoing by all three targets with the information, abusing the civil rights of all Americans in the process. Schiff and his committee staffers still retain the data. So there is no telling which other American citizens they are targeting with this illegal spying.
These illegal actions by Schiff and his committee raise disturbing questions of an out of control process that is violating the 1st and 4th Amendments, attorney-client privilege, Congressional ethics, and the civil rights and privacy rights of all Americans.
Schiff has made himself a modern-day Lavrenty Beria, the feared and unprincipled former head of the Soviet Union’s KGB. The willingness to spy on Americans not only shocks the conscience. It screams out for a criminal investigation of Schiff and all those involved in producing and publishing the information. There can be no reasonable explanation for his actions other than spying, intimidation, and using this information to make McCarthyite smears and accusations against American citizens.
Schiff does not have judicial authority. He has flagrantly abused his power. All while professing to have damaging information from privileged communications.
John Solomon is an award-winning reporter. An actual journalist. Schiff has violated his privacy, his sources, attacked his integrity, violating Solomon’s 1st and 4th amendments. The 1st amendment protects freedom of the press. The 4th amendment protects citizens from illegal search and seizure.

Not just regarding Solomon, but all reporters, and all of those caught up in the metadata Schiff acquired. But then Schiff is just following the Obama administrations seizure of phone records from AP reporters.
At the time Gary Pruitt, the president, and chief executive of The A.P., called the seizure, a “massive and unprecedented intrusion” into its newsgathering activities.
“There can be no possible justification for such an overbroad collection of the telephone communications of The Associated Press and its reporters,” he wrote. “These records potentially reveal communications with confidential sources across all of the newsgathering activities undertaken by The A.P. during a two-month period, provide a road map to A.P.’s newsgathering operations, and disclose information about A.P.’s activities and operations that the government has no conceivable right to know.”
Where is the right to privacy. Due process. To challenge the initial subpoena in court. To prevent unfounded accusations against American citizens from being published like an authoritarian dictators campaign of intimidation.
Schiff acts like Beria, the KGB and the East German Stasi secret police. Who else has been caught up in Schiff’s web of illegally obtained metadata? Which other reporters does he have the phone records of? Who else is he planning on targeting and intimidating?
Unfortunately, this is a pattern of abuse that Democrats have been practicing since the start of the Obama administration. Barack Obama and John Brennen abused FISA 702 authority to illegally spy on tens of thousands of Americans from 2012 – 2016.
Brennan, James Clapper, and James Comey had a secret program to allow three contractors at the DOJ unlimited access to NSA surveillance systems to spy on their political opponents.
To hide the targeting of Trump associates by intelligence agencies, assuring it would not happen domestically, Obama moves the program to London the center of the “Operation Crossfire Hurricane” as the early investigation was called.
As David Stockman observed (The RussiaGate Witch-Hunt Stockman Names Names In The Deep State’s Insurance Policy )
“There was a sinister plot to meddle in the 2016 election, after all. But it was not orchestrated from the Kremlin; it was an entirely homegrown affair conducted from the inner sanctums—the White House, DOJ, the Hoover Building and Langley—-of the Imperial City.
Likewise, the perpetrators didn’t speak Russian or write in the Cyrillic script. In fact, they were lifetime beltway insiders occupying the highest positions of power in the US government. Here are the names and rank of the principal conspirators:
John Brennan, CIA director;
Susan Rice, National Security Advisor;
Samantha Power, UN Ambassador;
James Clapper, Director of National Intelligence;
James Comey, FBI director;
Andrew McCabe, Deputy FBI director;
Sally Yates, deputy Attorney General,
Bruce Ohr, associate deputy AG;
Peter Strzok, deputy assistant director of FBI counterintelligence;
Lisa Page, FBI lawyer;
and countless other lessor and greater poobahs of Washington power, including President Obama himself.
To a person, the participants in this illicit cabal shared the core trait that made Obama such a blight on the nation’s well-being. To wit, he never held an honest job outside the halls of government in his entire adult life; and as a careerist agent of the state and practitioner of its purported goods works, he exuded a sanctimonious disdain for everyday citizens who make their living along the capitalist highways and by-ways of America.” – Zero-Hedge
The aforementioned’s illegal use of these systems was uncovered by NSA director Mike Rogers in March of 2016. He stopped the authorization to use the NSA systems and conducted an audit of its previous use. He reported his findings to the FISA court just days after the FISA warrant on Carter Page was issued.
For his decency and honesty, Brennan and Defense Secretary Ash Carter tried to get Rogers fired. Especially after he briefed President-elect Donald Trump days after the election without telling Brennan. Rogers had uncovered an egregious and systematic program to illegally abuse NSA surveillance systems against American citizens.
In April of 2017 FISA Court Presiding Judge Rosemary Collyer ruled that of 40,000 searches of the NSA database by the three DOJ contractors, 32500 of them were illegal and unconstitutional. She ruled that the DOJ had an “institutional lack of candor” and the actions of the contractors “violated the constitution and the 4th amendment”.
According to sources, this illegal use of NSA databases is some of the motivation for the three-year coup attempt that was launched against Trump by senior Obama administration officials. To keep their crimes under wraps.
To prevent the truth of their illegal activities from being exposed.
The three contractors reported directly to Brennan and Clapper. They took the results of these searches and passed it on in sealed envelopes marked eyes only to the Obama Oval Office.
The subsequent spying on the Trump campaign, then the Mueller Weissman inquisition, the three year Coup d’etat, and now the impeachment farce are all part and parcel of this ongoing abuse of intelligence authority.
Unconstitutional violations of the 1st and 4th amendments. Naked abuse of power. Subverting necessary national security surveillance systems to spy on Americans, and use them illegally against domestic political opponents.
Schiff’s Stasi KGB tactics are part and parcel of the unmitigated attempt to destroy this President regardless of the consequences. Regardless of the ethics. Without regard to the Constitution and the civil rights of all Americans.
It is not the first time this has been done in the impeachment farce. Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch enlisted the State Department to use the intelligence services to monitor the activities of John Solomon, Sara Carter, Sean Hannity, Ed Henry, and other journalists.
For Adam Schiff, a man who called President Trump a Russian Agent for three years, to now be using subpoenas to spy on Americans with the help of the NSA not just absurd. It is dangerous. Who else is he spying on? What other illegally obtained materials does he have?
It was worse when Schiff conducted a Stassi style star chamber and then leaked selective information that was both deliberately slanted and refused to release exculpatory testimony. This also fits the pattern of hiding exculpatory and damaging information that was used by the DOJ in the issuance of illegal FISA warrants.
But for Schiff to obtain Giuliani’s phone records and then publish both the information and defamatory accusations is a new low, even for Schiff.
Schiff must be held accountable for this and other offenses against constitutional law, decency, due process, and the rule of law. It is part and parcel of the illegal activities that have surrounded every aspect of the Democrat crusade to destroy Donald Trump. The people who falsely claim Trump is acting like a king are acting like a Communist dictatorship.
Violation of the civil rights of any American is a Federal crime punishable by up to life in prison. A proven liar and abuser of power like Adam Schiff needs to be investigated and held fully accountable for his illegal actions. There is no other acceptable outcome.
