Critics charge Schiff and Pelosi of violating The Logan Act

President Trump demanded that ‘shifty’ Adam Schiff be deposed Sunday, calling the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, one of the panels investigating impeachment, ‘corrupt’ and ‘a fraud’.

“I demand his deposition,” Trump said.

“He is a fraud, just like the Russia Hoax was, and the Ukraine Hoax is now. When do the Do Nothing Democrats pay a price for what they are doing to our Country, & when do the Republicans finally fight back?”

This Scam going on right now by the Democrats against the Republican Party, and me, was all about a perfect phone call I had with the Ukrainian President. He’s already stated, NO PRESSURE! Where is the Whistleblower, or the 2nd Whistleblower, or the “informant?” All gone…..

….because their so-called story didn’t come even close to matching up with the exact transcript of the phone call. Was it a Corrupt Adam Schiff con? Why didn’t the IG see this? When do we depose Shifty Schiff to find out why he fraudulently made up my phone call and read this..

….fiction to Congress and the American People? I demand his deposition. He is a fraud, just like the Russia Hoax was, and the Ukraine Hoax is now. When do the Do Nothing Democrats pay a price for what they are doing to our Country, & when do the Republicans finally fight back?

The President also hit out at Nancy Pelosi for leading a congressional delegation to Jordan to inquire about Syria.

Trump said that if she wants answers on Syria, Pelosi should look to what Obama did.

Pelosi is now leading a delegation of 9, including Corrupt Adam Schiff, to Jordan to check out Syria. She should find out why Obama drew The Red Line In the Sand, & then did NOTHING, losing Syria & all respect. I did something, 58 missiles. One million died under Obama’s mistake!

Others charged that Pelosi and Schiff are violating The Logan Act with the trip to Syria.

The law criminalizes negotiation by unauthorized persons with foreign governments having a dispute with the United States.

Dear @mjgranger1 @SpeakerPelosi & house mems have NO authority to negotiate with foreign govt leaders
Treaties are reserved to @POTUS & #Senate
This is actually a violation of the Logan Act.
More criminal activity by Pelosi & crew they will claim above the law#LibertyFirst https://t.co/Ryuh9SGMUq

SEEMS THAT PELOSI JUST VIOLATED THE LOGAN ACT. House Speaker Pelosi holds talks in Jordan with King Abdullah – https://t.co/3z78LhCgW9

ENFORCE THE LOGAN ACT: Pelosi and Schiff "Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both." The Logan Act is a United States federal law that criminalizes negotiation by unauthorized persons with foreign governments having a dispute with the U.S. https://t.co/zcGWIXwCF0

Constitutionally, the president of the United States and the executive branch have sole authority to engage in foreign negotiations.

What Pelosi is doing is unprecedented and a violation of the Logan Act. A felony.

@USMarshalsHQ @FBI should arrest @SpeakerPelosi at the airport on her return from overseas for violating the Logan Act. The Constitution empowers the Executive with sole responsibility to conduct foreign policy. https://t.co/C9tynQX0EY

If Pelosi and Schiff violates the Logan Act by visiting Syria, hey should be arrested, @realDonaldTrump. Although they think they are, no one is above the law. pic.twitter.com/7HhIkLmY6b

Pelosi and Schiff Travel to Jordan to Undermine President Trump in Shadow Diplomacy — Violate Logan Act — Should Be Immediately Arrested Upon Returned https://t.co/7maNLaXBt5 @gatewaypundit #AAG #AAG2020

The Washington Post reports that House Republicans are expected to push a vote Monday on a resolution to censure Schiff.

“Republicans, who are a minority in the House, are taking issue with how Schiff is conducting the investigation.” the report states.

“The very least we can do is censure him,” the House Republican leader, California Rep. Kevin McCarthy, said on Fox News Channel’s “Sunday Morning Futures.”

Donald Trump to Counter-Program Second GOP Debate by Appearing with Striking Auto Workers in Detroit

The GOP frontrunner will deliver a “prime-time speech before current and former union members.

Former President Donald Trump will appear with striking union members of the United Auto Workers (UAW) in Detroit, Michigan, as his opponents squabble for the spotlight on the debate stage on September 27, according to a report that multiple sources have confirmed to Breitbart News.

The New York Times first reported on Trump’s forthcoming appearance with Detroit auto workers striking against the big three automakers — General Motors, Ford, and Stellantis — which will serve as counter-programming to the GOP debate at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, California.

The GOP frontrunner will deliver a “prime-time speech before current and former union members,” according to the Times, as they strike for higher wages following 40-year-high inflation and seek commitments from automakers and the federal government that Biden’s electrical vehicle agenda will not threaten their jobs or pay, as Breitbart News has documented.

Multiple Trump aides have confirmed the 45th president’s plans to Breitbart News.

Trump, who regularly takes a majority of support in independent national GOP primary polls, is keeping with the strategy his campaign employed in the first debate when he skipped the event and instead joined Tucker Carlson for a one-on-one 45-minute interview on the host’s eponymously-named show, Tucker on Twitter.

After battling the counter-programming, which was released at the start of the first GOP debate on August 23 and instantly went viral, debate storylines quickly fell to the wayside when Trump surrendered in Fulton County, Georgia, on his fourth indictment a day later. The arrest produced the now-iconic mugshot of Trump, the first-ever mugshot of a former president of the United States.

Trump’s latest plans further signal his focus on a potential general election rematch with President Joe Biden rather than the Republican primary, as union workers who were long the foundation of the Democrat coalition were pivotal in helping elect him to office in 2016, as Breitbart News’s John Binder emphasized on Saturday:

In 2016, union workers helped propel Trump and his nationalist-populist agenda to the White House — scoring the most support among union households for any Republican presidential candidate since former President Ronald Reagan in 1984.
In 2020, Biden helped widen that gap by taking 57 percent of union households compared to Trump’s 40 percent. Trump could significantly increase his share of union households in a rematch against Biden by registering to vote millions of non-college-educated whites in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania who remain disenfranchised.

Binder’s report highlighted that the Detroit Free Press first revealed that Trump was weighing a visit to Michigan to meet with UAW members striking against the Big Three automakers.
