Schiff hit with ethics complaint on his first day.

[Thinker101]

An ethics watchdog group on Friday asked the Office of Congressional Ethics investigate Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., for using footage from the Senate floor in an ad announcing his run for the Senate.

Schiff announced Thursday that he's running for the Senate in 2024, via a video that was shared on his Twitter account. That video includes footage of Schiff speaking on the Senate floor during impeachment proceedings against former President Donald Trump.

"This is a clear violation of House ethics rules and federal law," said Kendra Arnold, executive director of FACT.

Adam Schiff is the most unethical and dishonest man in American politics.
This will make him a favorite for the DUMB California voters.
California loves to elect left wing crooks and crackpots.

Your trolling is pathetic.


In his campaign announcement, Schiff used video of him speaking on the Senate floor during Trump’s impeachment proceedings. Ethics rules prohibit members from using government resources in their campaign materials, which include photographs or videos taken from inside the House or Senate.

“The law is broad — not only is a Member directly prohibited from using the video, but the Member cannot repost from other sources or use video obtained from news outlets,” the group wrote. “This is an important rule because it not only protects taxpayer-funded resources from abuse, but it also protects the integrity of official proceedings by reducing the incentive for Members to make political speeches during official proceedings.”

So you think just because something has been broadcast you can use it in advertising?

Are you really that stupid?

That is saying a lot when you look at all the other unethical and dishonest Democrats. Like being the scum on top of the scum.
