Senator Adam B. Schiff rejected a weekend side by President Trump on Monday as an unfounded threat, in which Trump claimed that ship and others could still be subjected to examinations for measures that were captured by a board in late Biden.
“Our threats will not intimidate us,” wrote the California Democrat about X. “or they are silent.”
Ship, which was chosen last year to set the Senate seat, who held by Senator Dianne Feinstein for a long time, is one of those who received a forgiveness of bids in the last days of his presidency, even though he personally discouraged the move.
Schiff previously worked in the house, where he contributed to the fact that the selection committee led Trump's attack on Trump's attack on the US Capitol on January 6, 2021. The work of the committee led Trump to be charged by the house for the second time to increase the uprising, which was an attempt to block the transmission to bidges.
Before leaving his office, Biden spent a break out of forgives, of which he said that they should protect people who had not done anything wrong, but could still be geared towards retribution by Trump. This included the members of the selection committee, including ship, one of Trump's vocal critics.
Trump has dirty bidies since her edition. In a Sunday contribution in his social media platform Truth Social, in which he exceeded a conspiracy theory by right-wing expert, he went one step further. Bidens pardonation was invalid because it was signed with a “car” what led to a digital, non-handwritten signature.
The theory ignores the fact that digital signatures in the entire government are often used and have been accepted for years that other presidents have used autopens to sign important measures and pardon and that the office of the legal advisor of the Ministry of Justice under President George W. Bush issued a memorandum opinion that justified their use in 2005.
The theory also plays about the idea that bidges, now 82, was mentally absent or was excessively dependent on the adjutants towards the end of his term. Elon Musk, Trump's largely authorized advisor to government efficiency and the richest man in the world, published a picture on Sunday afternoon that shows a series of presidential portraits, bidding being replaced by the image of a car.
Hours later, Trump – who has ever opened bidges as the eldest president in January, published his comments on the social of truth.
“The” forgives “, which Sleepy Joe Biden gave the non -selected committee for political rackets and many others, are hereby declared empty, empty and without further strength or effect because they were made by autopen,” wrote Trump. “In other words, Joe Biden did not sign it, but above all he didn't know anything about her!”
Trump also repeated the claim that he had previously pointed out that the selected committee had deleted evidence in his “witch hunt” against him, and said his members should “understand that they were subject to investigations at the highest level”.
Trump's statements were the latest indication that he intends to wait for Democrats to political retaliation, although his repeated promises of the political “weapons” of the judicial system would come to an end. Trump has installed Loyalists who supported his lie that the 2020 elections were stolen at the highest level of the Ministry of Justice, which is increasingly concerned that politically motivated investigations could be started.
Schiff said the members of the committee of January 6th were “all proud of our work”.
Rep. Bennie G. Thompson, a democrat of the Mississippi and chair of the committee of January 6, repeated ship.
“Trump was responsible for January 6th. Therefore, on the first day, he pardoned those who beat the police on that day,” said Thompson to X and referred to Trump's decision to apologize for the criminal accused during the uprising.
“We have examined what he did thoroughly and legally and have lived in his head since then. He knows his fault, ”said Thompson. “I'm not afraid of his joke, which in reality has no basis.”
