On Tuesday, January 26th, California Representative Adam Schiff announced he will be running for the US Senate seat currently held by Dianne Feinstein. The announcement was made during a press conference in Los Angeles and was met with both support and criticism.

Schiff, a Democrat, has served in Congress since 2013 and has been a vocal critic of President Donald Trump. He is also the Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee and has been a leader in the impeachment inquiry into the President.

In response to Schiff’s announcement, a progressive group attacked his failed record on Trump. They argued that Schiff’s campaign is hypocritical and that he is trying to distract from his record.

Meanwhile, supporters of Schiff have praised the announcement. They believe that Schiff is the right candidate to replace Feinstein, who is not seeking re-election.

Schiff’s campaign for Senate is sure to be closely watched. The election will take place in November of 2022.
