Trump White House Responds After Schiff Demands Financial Disclosure Records

California Democratic Sen. Adam Schiff is once again playing political games, this time demanding financial disclosures from senior White House officials, and it didn’t take long for the Trump team to call out the hypocrisy.

Instead of aiming his outrage where it belongs, Schiff sent a letter to White House counsel David Warrington and Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, voicing “continued and growing concern regarding… failure to submit any financial disclosure reports for senior White House officials to the Office of Government Ethics within the statutorily mandated period,”

But as usual, Schiff ignored the real elephant in the room — California colleague Nancy Pelosi’s shady financial history.

White House spokesman Kush Desai wasn’t having it, telling ABC News, “The American people remain highly concerned about Nancy Pelosi’s long, documented history of insider trading and eagerly await Adam Schiff refocusing his political stunt on serious issues, like Pelosi’s portfolio.”

Schiff demanded a list of officials required to file “new entrant” reports, a reason for the alleged “failure to transmit” them, and any late filing penalties. He also pointed out that he had joined an earlier letter in April with a group of fellow Democrats, including Rep. Mike Levin and Rep. Jerry Nadler.

But the White House quickly pushed back again, with spokeswoman Taylor Rogers saying officials are fully compliant with ethics laws, “including the obligation to file periodic transaction reports disclosing the purchase or sale of certain securities.”
