[Daily Wire] Former Trump administration official Mike Pompeo accused Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) of leaking classified information.The fresh allegation was made after Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) blocked Schiff’s appointment to remain on the House Intelligence Committee, where he served as chairman for the last four years.
"During my time as CIA director and secretary of state, I know that he leaked classified information that had been provided to him," Pompeo said on Fox News on Wednesday.
Pompeo did not offer specifics, but he insisted the problem was bad enough to restrict what he shared with Congress.
Underscoring what a serious charge that is, "Outnumbered" co-host Emily Compagno pressed Pompeo on why there hasn’t been accountability if such leaks would be "a felony at minimum, up to treason."
"It’s a complicated process, right? It’s difficult to pin down precisely what happened," Pompeo said. "But I could tell you that when we provided information to him and to his staff, it ended up in places it shouldn’t have been with alarming regularity. We could see it. In the end, I decided, I held back information from them as a result."
