Now of course we know that his staffer did, and they helped him get a letter and advised him to file the complaint. That’s bad enough, but the whistleblower also wrote to him on Aug. 12 in a letter. But Adam Schiff played it like he’d never had contact with him and was being denied that contact when indeed he appeared to be coordinating the filing of the complaint.
