Adam Schiff Accused of Leaking Classified Information: 'A Felony at Minimum, Up to Treason'

Former CIA director Mike Pompeo accused Adam Schiff of leaking classified information in the wake of his removal from the House Intelligence Committee.

Things couldn’t get any worse for Schiff.

“During my time as CIA director and secretary of state, I know that he leaked classified information that had been provided to him,” Pompeo told Fox News.

While Pompeo didn’t offer any specifics, he insisted the problem was bad enough to restrict what he shared with Congress.

“Outnumbered” co-host Emily Compagno pressed Pompeo on why accountability of such leaks is non-existent, with them being “a felony at minimum, up to treason.”

“It’s a complicated process, right? It’s difficult to pin down precisely what happened,” Pompeo said.

“But I could tell you that when we provided information to him and to his staff, it ended up in places it shouldn’t have been with alarming regularity,” he said.

“We could see it. In the end, I decided, I held back information from them as a result,” Pompeo added.

Schiff has rigorously denied leaking classified information in the past.

“I haven’t. My staff hasn’t,” he told CNN in 2020.

“I can’t speak for what all the members of the committee have done or not done, including a lot of the Republican members.”

In 2019, Trump called for Schiff to be charged with treason.

“I want Schiff questioned at the highest level for Fraud & Treason,” Trump tweeted at the time.

“Adam Schiff illegally made up a FAKE & terrible statement, pretended it to be mine as the most important part of my call to the Ukrainian President … Arrest for Treason?”

In January 2021, former acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell accused Schiff of regularly” leaking classified information.

In the same year, Sen. Tom Cotton suggested that Schiff could be a source for dubious reports on Russia offering bounties to Afghan militants to kill U.S. troops.

But Schiff spokesman Patrick Boland slammed Cotton’s remarks, saying, “Yet another false and baseless claim by Tom Cotton — you would think he would know better by now.”

Schiff and Rep. Eric Swalwell were kicked off the House Intelligence Committee earlier this week.

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy slammed Schiff for being a repeat liar, most notebly with the investigations related to former President Donald Trump.

Schiff responded to being kicked off the committee by claiming McCarthy’s move was “petty, political payback for investigating Donald Trump.”

Schiff told MSNBC on Tuesday that he was too “paranoid” to take any classified information to his house while serving on the House Intelligence Committee.

“This is what’s so astounding, I think, for all of us on the Intelligence Committee. I never take classified documents to my house,” Schiff said. “I don’t know any reason why people would,” Schiff added.
