EXCERPT:
SCHIFF: “You know, here’s the problem. This looks a lot to me like a redux of Benghazi. This investigation is starting for, again, for political purpose. This is another investigation of Hillary Clinton long after and how she's no longer a presidential candidate, no longer the secretary of state. Apparently there’s more interest in what happened seven years ago with Secretary Clinton than there is in the Russia investigation, and that’s quite by design, I don’t think we can do a good investigation if it’s begun in bad faith, the way this one has. Because there's now three committee investigation or investigations the Republicans have launched, with the acquiescence we have to imagine of the speaker was done without any consultation with the minorities on any of these three committees. So as we saw in Benghazi, when you began an investigation for a partisan reason, it leads to a partisan conclusion."
