Report: It’s Revealed Who Adam Schiff Was Leaking Classified Info To — What We Know and Why It Matters

In 2025, a set of declassified FBI documents and whistleblower disclosures reignited a long-running controversy involving Senator Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), who previously served as a senior Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee. The documents allege that Schiff authorized the release of classified information to certain members of the media and political allies during the post-2016 Russiagate era as part of efforts to influence public narratives about alleged Trump-Russia connections. These allegations, pushed by a whistleblower and circulated by certain news outlets and conservative media, have fueled fierce debate over political accountability, intelligence transparency, and the legal boundaries of congressional staff conduct.

The story touches on fundamentally important issues in American governance: when, how, and to whom classified information may be shared, and what happens when a member of Congress is accused of misusing access to such information. This blog post walks through the key developments, the parties allegedly involved, the evidence and interpretations offered, and the broader implications for public trust and political accountability.

What the Report Claims: Allegations From an FBI Whistleblower

The current allegations stem from newly released FBI interview reports obtained by Just The News and circulated in 2025. Those records reflect interviews with a career intelligence officer who had worked for Democrats on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) for over a decade. According to those documents:

The whistleblower told FBI agents that in 2017, then-Representative Schiff directed “all-staff” that they would leak classified information that was derogatory to then-President Donald Trump and that it would be used as part of efforts to indict him.

The whistleblower said he raised concerns that leaking classified information was illegal and potentially “treasonous,” but was assured by others in the meeting that they would not be caught because of legal protections for members of Congress.

The witness explicitly stated that Schiff authorized the leaking of classified information to the press, supposedly to shape the public narrative around Trump and alleged Russian interference.

The whistleblower’s description points to direct involvement by Schiff, members of his staff, and possibly other lawmakers such as then-Representative Eric Swalwell — identified in the documents as one of the officials present when the classified document was reviewed and its content swiftly appeared in media reporting.

The crux of the allegation is that the classified information was shared with reporters and external actors without proper authorization, and that such disclosures were part of a concerted political strategy rather than routine congressional oversight.
