A bombshell allegation has landed squarely on Senator Adam Schiff’s desk, and this time it’s not coming from Republicans or conservative media—it’s from one of his own.
A longtime Democratic staffer who served over a decade on the House Intelligence Committee has stepped forward with claims that Schiff personally directed the leaking of classified information designed to politically damage President Trump.
The explosive details are laid out in documents recently turned over to FBI Director Kash Patel and obtained by Just The News. The staffer says the behavior dates back to 2017 and continued while Schiff chaired the powerful committee. In a transcript cited by the outlet, the whistleblower described Schiff’s order to leak as “treasonous” and “illegal,” warning that it also violated House Ethics rules.
The account centers on an all-staff meeting allegedly convened by Schiff during Trump’s presidency. According to the whistleblower, Schiff bluntly told the group they would be leaking classified material “derogatory to President of the United States Donald J. Trump” for the purpose of building a case to indict him. When the staffer objected, other attendees reportedly reassured him they would not be caught.
This isn’t just a case of internal dissent. John Solomon of Just The News told Fox News that FBI interviews have identified multiple individuals who conspired with Schiff to spread damaging classified material. “This is the first of several major leak investigations we’re going to see over the next several days,” Solomon said. “Their own staff turned them in when interviewed by the FBI. Nothing, again, happened.”
The big question now is whether Trump’s Justice Department will handle it differently than the old guard. Patel signaled that the issue could be headed toward serious accountability. “Now Congress can see how classified info was leaked to shape political narratives – and decide if our institutions were weaponized against the American people,” he wrote on X.
The timing could not be worse for Schiff. Federal authorities are already weighing potential criminal mortgage fraud charges against him. Attorney General Pam Bondi has appointed a special prosecutor to probe allegations that Schiff falsely claimed a Maryland property as his primary residence while representing a California district, correcting the paperwork only in 2019.
Schiff, elected to the Senate in 2024, built his career on high-profile intelligence work and aggressive oversight of the Trump administration. If these whistleblower allegations hold water, they could mark the most serious legal challenge of his career—and expose just how far Democrats were willing to go to stop Trump.
