#1 The AG post is his 25m target. His long-range goal is the governorship.

#2 However, the departure of Schiff would further diminish Pelosi's narrow Democratic majority,

...which means I fully support it.

His long-range goal is the governorship.

I didn't consider that angle at first but (Spock voice) the cadet's logic is sound. Do you think Newsom would do it? The potential for Schiff to stab Newsom in the back is incredibly high, especially if Newsom has plans on running again in 2023.

Now there's two reasons to support the move - book it, done.

#3 This guy shouldn't be anywhere near the wheels of government--A more-than-a-few screws loose and an inveterate liar make for a dangerous combination.

#4 To paraphrase the great Groucho, if you think this state is messed up now, just wait til I get through with it!

#5 Oh, I'm sure a governor of Newsom's caliber can come up with appointees who would make Schifferbrains look almost sane in comparison.

#7 Shit for brains as AG? Great move for California. Lets see some more moves as to how they can hasten the utter destruction of the state.

#8 Schiff probably figures Gavin will be recalled and he's hoping for a good position to take over.

#9  the departure of Schiff would further diminish Pelosi's narrow Democratic majority,

He’ll be replaced by another Democrat, but at least it will be one without any seniority, who therefore won’t have any power. And, very likely, will want to be another member of The Squad of the Vicious Stupids.
