Adam Schiff is on a quest to uncover Donald Trump’s Pee Pee Tape
As everyone from Special Counsel Robert Mueller to the United States Congress works to uncover the extensive web of crimes and lies committed by Donald Trump, major new rocks are being turned over with each passing day. Evidence has surfaced of several points of collusion with the Russian government. Shady financial deals are being parsed. And now it appears one of the leaders of the investigation is on a quest to uncover one of the most salacious accusations in the entire Trump-Russia scandal.
House Intelligence Committee ranking member Adam Schiff has been instrumental in moving the Trump-Russia investigation forward this year. One of the key stumbling blocks all along has been the reclusive nature of former MI6 agent Christopher Steele, who authored the infamous Trump-Russia dossier, which alleged the “Pee Pee Tape” blackmail incident among other several other assertions. Recently the head of the company that hired Steele to create the dossier testified before Congress that he stands behind every word Steele wrote. Now Schiff is moving into action.
Adam Schiff has told MSNBC that he and his committee counterpart, Mike Conaway, are willing to travel to London together to meet with Christopher Steele and discuss his dossier (link). While Schiff didn’t reference it specifically, he’s rather clearly on a quest to find the Pee Pee Tape. It’s not that the tape itself, or the salacious acts it depicts, will take Trump down. It’s that proving the tape’s existence, and tracking down the details surrounding it, will help to unravel the Kremlin’s scheme to use the tape to blackmail Trump.
By proving that the Kremlin was indeed holding blackmail material over Trump, Schiff can go a long way toward proving that Trump and the Kremlin were in fact colluding to change the outcome of the election. If that latter part is proven, then Trump is finished.
