Overview

• President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social on Sunday urging authorities, including Congress, to investigate Senator Adam Schiff, citing the Ukraine impeachment as his rationale.
• Trump accused Schiff of dishonesty and claimed unspecified legal and protocol violations, with no public indication of any formal investigation into the senator.
• The call came after the Department of Justice indicted former FBI Director James Comey last month on counts of making false statements and obstruction of justice tied to alleged lies to Congress.
• New York Attorney General Letitia James was indicted last week on bank-fraud charges and making false statements to a financial institution.
• U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan presented both cases to a grand jury after her appointment last month, which Mediaite reports followed Erik Siebert’s departure after he allegedly refused to prosecute James.
