Summary
Democratic Congressman Adam Schiff of California is a man with a virtual target on his back from MAGA Republicans. He was thrown off the Intelligence Committee by Speaker Kevin McCarthy. Which kind of works for him, because it gives him more time to campaign for the Senate to replace Dianne Feinstein when her term ends at the beginning of 2025. Congressman Schiff was a major player in efforts by the Congress to hold Donald Trump accountable including being Impeachment Manager on Trump's first impeachment and as Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee. He is a close ally of former Speaker Nancy Pelosi. One of his main issues right now is the “ethics’ of the Supreme Court. And he's introduced legislation to provide a binding ethics regime on the Court.

| 1:17.6 | Hello, good friends. Welcome back to the Bill Press Pod. Well, it turned out to be a pretty busy Memorial Day weekend with the White House and House Republicans finally agreeing on a plan to avoid fiscal chaos by raising the debt ceiling and putting the breaks on some new spending. Now the big challenge is getting that plan through Congress. |
| 1:21.6 | But that begs the question, why do we have to go through this political circus over raising the debt ceiling and why |
