American Justice is Being Restored, and Adam Schiff Knows His Unethical January 6 Committee Conduct Is In the Spotlight
St. Louis, MO: Late yesterday, April 1, California Senator Adam Schiff (the newest member of the Senate Judiciary Committee) placed a “nomination hold” on Ed Martin as President Trump’s pick to be the next full-term U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia.
“This parliamentary procedure may cause delays,” said John Schlafly, Treasurer of Phyllis Schlafly Eagles, “but it cannot ultimately derail a confirmation vote. The left may trot out all the procedural pauses and exhaustive list of former federal employees they like, but it won’t stop the Trump Administration’s will to clean out the Department of Justice. Ed Martin is at the tip of the spear of that effort.”
Ryan Hite, Phyllis Schlafly Eagles Communications Director, said “The left coast voters of California may have given Adam Schiff their stamp of approval last fall, but the rest of the country hasn’t forgotten ‘Shifty Schiff’s’ long list of unethical abuses of power.”
Phyllis Schlafly Eagles Executive Director Kurt Prenzler added, “Ed Martin is a fearless fighter for jurisprudence. He was a worthy successor to Phyllis Schlafly, courageously upholding one of the crown jewels of America: the rule of law. Also, this is not the first time our former Phyllis Schlafly Eagles president has squared off against one of the most corrupt members of Congress. By all appearances, Senator Schiff clearly recalls Ed’s prior work to hold him accountable.”

Adam Schiff’s list of egregious work on behalf of the Deep State is quite long and worth remembering:
- Schiff was a central figure in the Russian collusion hoax against Donald Trump as the Ranking Member and then Chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. (2016-2023)
- Schiff was a leader in the impeachment efforts. (2019-2021)
- Schiff continued to bludgeon Trump and conservative Americans through the overtly political sham known as the January 6 Select Committee. (2021-2023)
Ryan Hite concluded, “California Senator Adam Schiff is the poster boy of the left’s wicked Lawfare against We the People, and he’ll throw out any tactic to slow down the justice and accountability that is coming to the halls of federal power. Ed Martin represents that wave of justice and law and order.”
