Steered millions to political donors... why is it no one seems to care?The earmarks Adam Schiff delivered for donorsThe Democratic congressman for years secured earmarks for defense companies while taking campaign donations from top corporate brass and Washington lobbyists.
In two particularly egregious cases, Schiff channeled millions in funding to Smiths Detection and Phasebridge, Inc., two defense companies within his district - with $6 million steered to Smiths Detection and $3 million to Phasebridge. Both moves would have been barred under reforms adopted in 2010. This financial maneuvering coincided with Schiff receiving $8,500 in contributions from PMA Group PAC and two family members of Paul Magliocchetti, founder and owner of the lobbying firm retained by both defense companies.In 2011, Paul Magliocchetti was sentenced to 27 months in prison for making illegal campaign contributions.A POLITICO review of congressional earmarks and political contributions found that in addition to the money for homelessness and drug treatment, Schiff also steered millions to for-profit companies and raised tens of thousands for his House reelection campaigns from corporate executives and people connected to them. The review was mostly limited to publicly available data from the brief three-year window when corporate earmarks were disclosed.

Does this mean there will be another Trump indictment?

Good job, golfboy, for making this a front-and-center issue. I already hate Adam Schiff, but this gives me even more reason to hate that smarmy bastard.golfboy » 26 Sep 2023, 9:08 pm » wrote: ↑ Steered millions to political donors... why is it no one seems to care?The earmarks Adam Schiff delivered for donorsThe Democratic congressman for years secured earmarks for defense companies while taking campaign donations from top corporate brass and Washington lobbyists.

Nah, the misAdministration only cares about the Biden family.
Schiff doesn't matter to them.

Even if he did matter they wouldn't do anything to him.
