Dan Bongino called out Sen. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) on his popular podcast just a few days before President Donald Trump named him deputy director of the FBI.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy is Adam Schiff so worried? I strongly encourage you to go back and take another look today at the Russia collusion hoax,\u201d Bongino began during a segment.<\/p>\n

After noting that the story is now several years old, Bongino added: \u201cI\u2019m gonna be straight with you. I don\u2019t wanna move on.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had the FBI in conjunction with the Department of Justice, officials in Congress, foreign governments and intel people fabricate a story, invent a story that could have caused and done serious long-term harm to international relations with a nuclear-powered foe,\u201d he added. \u201cIt\u2019s kind of a big freakin\u2019 deal.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cListen to me \u2014 this is gonna be very important in the coming days,\u201d he went on, perhaps dropping a hint that he was about to be appointed to the FBI.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not letting this go. I wanna find out what happened because it can never happen again. Not to a Democrat. Not a Republican. Not to a Libertarian. Not to any United States citizen,\u201d Bongino said.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou do not get to alter or try to change the course of electoral politics by fabricating a story hijacking the justice system then to give the patina of truth to a fake story,\u201d he continued. \u201cYou don\u2019t get to do that.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy do I bring that up now? Because who was the ringmaster of that circus? Yes, Adam Schiff, and no, I\u2019m not letting it go,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
