Disgraced former House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff has finally broken his silence after President Trump slammed him over explosive allegations that he approved a scheme to leak classified information in a brazen attempt to sabotage Trump’s presidency. The Gateway Pundit previously reported on newly declassified FBI interview documents that reveal a Democrat whistleblower’s shocking claims—Schiff allegedly greenlit selective leaks of sensitive intelligence, an act the whistleblower called “unethical and possibly treasonous.”
According to recently declassified FBI 302 reports obtained by Just the News, the whistleblower—a longtime staffer for Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee—repeatedly warned the FBI starting in 2017 that Schiff had orchestrated targeted leaks of damaging intelligence against Trump. In an all-staff meeting, Schiff reportedly declared that the group would leak classified information to smear President Trump, boasting that the leaks would be used to indict him. When the whistleblower objected, calling the plan “unethical and possibly treasonous,” Schiff’s team allegedly reassured him they’d “not be caught leaking classified information.”
The whistleblower further claimed Schiff believed he was promised the position of CIA Director if Hillary Clinton had won the 2016 election—a blatant admission of political bias and corruption at the highest levels of the Democratic Party.
President Trump wasted no time calling out Schiff’s treachery, posting on Truth Social:
“Just out, irrefutable proof that Adam Shifty Schiff ‘APPROVED PLAN TO LEAK CLASSIFIED INFORMATION TO DAMAGE DONALD TRUMP.’”
Instead of addressing the damning evidence, Schiff responded with a snarky post on X, hiding behind former Attorney General Bill Barr—a man who has repeatedly been accused of protecting the deep state:
“Sorry, Donald. Wrong again. Even Barr’s Justice Department rejected that false smear years ago. But while we are the subject of confidential information, how about releasing those Epstein files? We are still waiting…”

Schiff’s deflection is laughable. Rather than answering for his alleged crimes, he resorts to what the left does best—changing the subject and attacking Trump. The liberal media, of course, remains silent on this bombshell revelation, proving once again their role as Democratic operatives rather than journalists.
Where are the headlines about Schiff’s abuse of power? Where is the outrage over a sitting congressman weaponizing classified intelligence for political gain? Instead, the same outlets that spent years pushing the Russia hoax are now ignoring credible evidence of actual corruption—because it implicates one of their own.
President Trump, meanwhile, continues to fight for transparency and accountability, demanding answers while the swamp works overtime to bury the truth.
