Adam Schiff, U.S. Congressman representing California’s 30th district since 2001, posted a series of tweets on February 10, 2026, addressing topics ranging from former President Donald Trump’s speech to rising antisemitism and the Department of Justice.
In a tweet published at 03:59 UTC, Schiff commented on Donald Trump’s appearance at the National Prayer Breakfast: “Trump’s rambling speech at the National Prayer Breakfast was far from unifying or spiritually inspired. Instead, he pedaled the same tired lies. But he did make one confession that grabbed my attention:”.
Later in the day, at 14:48 UTC, Schiff highlighted his meeting with high school students from AJC Global at the Capitol: “It was great to welcome high school students from @AJCGlobal to the Capitol. Across the nation and the world, we’re seeing an alarming rise in antisemitism, and I’m proud of these young leaders who are focused on combatting hate.”
At 15:49 UTC, Schiff criticized actions involving Donald Trump’s legal team and alleged conflicts of interest within the Department of Justice: “Translation of Blanche-speak: I told the DOJ to erase the conviction of someone who refused to testify against my criminal defense client, Donald Trump. I do this because I can — despite my flagrant conflicts of interest — and because I really want to keep this terrible job.”
Schiff has served in Congress since replacing James E. Rogan in 2001 and previously held office in the California Senate from 1996 to 2000. Born in Framingham, Massachusetts in 1960 and currently residing in Burbank, Schiff holds degrees from Stanford University (BA) and Harvard University (JD).
