California Senator-elect Adam Schiff is facing fresh criticism over his previous Trump-Russia collusion allegations, despite the Mueller report’s conclusion of no conspiracy. Schiff, who was censured in 2023 and removed from the House Intelligence Committee, had based his claims on the discredited Steele dossier.
Following his victory over Steve Garvey for the Senate seat, questions about Schiff’s taxes have also reemerged, involving disputed primary residence claims in both Maryland and California.
A strong Trump opponent, Schiff has pledged to continue his opposition in the Senate, while Trump has called him “the enemy from within.” Schiff’s divisive reputation endures.
