Adam Schiff's Bill 'Dead Politically' and 'Blatantly Unconstitutional,' Says Former DOJ Official

Schiff's Inspector General Proposal

• ❌ Tom Dupree states that Adam Schiff's proposal to insert an inspector general into the White House is politically dead and will not pass Congress.
• 🏛️ He argues the bill is blatantly unconstitutional, as the founders never intended for an inspector general to operate independently of the president's control.
• ⚖️ Dupree believes that even if the bill passed, it would be quickly invalidated by the courts.

Principal Residence and Tax Issues

• 🏠 The Constitution does not require congressmen or senators to live in their district while serving, though it may have political consequences.
• 📝 The core issue flagged by President Trump involves misrepresenting principal residence for tax and mortgage purposes by claiming different states on different forms.
• 🔍 The Justice Department is reportedly investigating whether Adam Schiff engaged in such practices.

Russia Collusion and Legal Remedies

• 🕵️‍♂️ The "Russia collusion" narrative, involving figures like Brennan, Comey, Clapper, and Schiff, is back in the news and is seen as having consumed a significant part of Trump's first term.
• ⚖️ A legal remedy for these past actions would depend on investigators finding evidence of criminal conduct, such as making false statements on forms.
• 📈 Dupree suggests that the outcome is more likely to play out in the political sphere, with new leadership reviewing historical events for the record.

Reaffirming the Justice Department's Mission

• 🎯 Dupree calls for a reaffirmation of the Justice Department's fundamental purpose: an unwavering commitment to the rule of law and the Constitution.
• 🚫 He notes that the department goes off track when prosecutorial judgments are corrupted by political considerations rather than independence.
• ✨ The mission of the new administration is to confirm the DOJ's 100% commitment to the rule of law, restoring it to its former status as a gold standard federal agency.
