Trump Lashes Out at Schiff, New Face of the Impeachment Inquiry

Katherine Gypson

   CAPITOL HILL - Adam Schiff, the erudite and dogged chairman of the
   House Intelligence Committee, is prosecuting the case of his life on
   Capitol Hill this fall.

   The 59-year old former federal attorney and Harvard Law graduate is
   leading the impeachment inquiry in the U.S. House of Representatives
   and has incurred the wrath of U.S. President Donald Trump on Twitter
   and television.

   The two men have never had a civil relationship. Trump in the past has
   belittled Schiff as a "pencil neck" and "Liddle Schiff," while Schiff
   frequently compared Trump to a mob boss.
