Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), the ranking member on the House Intelligence Committee, criticized the Obama administration for not speaking out more forcefully to expose Russian hacking during the 2016 election, but also thinks President Donald Trump is in no position to blame Obama for failing to stop it. Appearing on CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday, Schiff addressed a report in The Washington Post detailing the way the Obama administration was slow and hesitant to publicly accuse Russia of interfering in the election even after it received intelligence that President Valdimir Putin was involved. “I think the administration needed to call out Russia earlier, and needed to act to deter and punish Russia earlier and I think that was a very serious mistake,” he said.
