'The Five' blasts Adam Schiff for 'unnecessary' Capitol riot-9/11 comparison on hearing day
Fox News
The panel on “The Five” condemned Rep. Adam Schiff for comparing the Capitol riot on January 6 to the September 11, 2001 terror attacks, calling the comparison inappropriate and “unfortunate.”
In an interview on Tuesday, Schiff derided House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., over his decision to pull committee appointees after Pelosi rejected two of them – Republican Reps. Jim Jordan of Ohio and Jim Banks of Indiana. "You could've made the same point after 9/11 -- do we really need an investigation - don't we know what happened: that Al Qaeda attacked us and they used aircraft?" Schiff asked when prompted by CNN host Anderson Cooper. "Of course there was a lot more to learn – what future threat was posed by Al Qaeda, and what changes to intelligence collection were needed … We approached that task in a bipartisan way."More Related News
