Rep. Schiff has NOT a worry about this….
(He IS getting under Trump’s skin)
He HAS been all over the airways pushing his ongoing investigation into Donald Trump’s Ukraine caper…
Arresting a House member of Congress for investigation him WOULD cross an invisible line for members of Congress and the Country…
The media fallout would be catastrophic….
President Trump on Monday suggested House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) be arrested for treason, a crime punishable by death or prison time, for exaggerating parts of the president’s call with Ukraine’s leader.
In a series of morning tweets, Trump ripped Schiff and the anonymous whistleblower who raised concerns about Trump’s conduct on the call with the president of Ukraine, the latter of which has accelerated a Democratic impeachment inquiry into Trump….

Schiff oversaw a hearing last week with the acting director of national intelligence to discuss the whistleblower complaint.
In his opening remarks, Schiff recounted Trump’s call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky by paraphrasing aspects to emphasize allegations of wrongdoing, including saying that Trump directed Zelensky to “make up dirt on my political opponent” a full “seven times.”
Schiff defended his comments during the hearing Thursday amid Republican backlash, arguing they were made partially in jest….

The Whistleblower Protection Act makes it a violation for federal agencies to threaten retaliation against individuals who come forward to raise concerns of wrongdoing within the government….
Note…
As expected?
Donald Trump is digging HIMSELF deeper into a hole….

There is a tentative agreement for the anonymous whistleblower who filed a complaint containing allegations about President Donald Trump’s conduct to testify before the House Intelligence Committee, Chairman Adam Schiff said Sunday, confirming CNN’s previous reporting.
CNN reported on Wednesday that the potential testimony is dependent on the whistleblower’s attorneys getting security clearance.
Asked on ABC’s “This Week” whether he had reached an agreement with the whistleblower and his attorneys to come before the committee, Schiff said: “Yes, we have.”
“And as (acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph) Maguire promised during the hearing, that whistleblower will be allowed to come in and come in without … a minder from the Justice Department or from the White House to tell the whistleblower what they can and cannot say. We will get the unfiltered testimony of that whistleblower,” he said…..
