Former Republican South Carolina Rep. Trey Gowdy predicted Sunday that the U.S. intelligence community might stop providing information to House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff because he leaks "Like a screen door on a submarine."
Gowdy was asked to weigh in on Republicans' decision Thursday to call on Schiff to step down as chairman of the House panel.
"Adam is a deeply partisan person. He did everything he could to make sure Hillary Clinton became president. And he's done everything he could to keep a cloud over the Trump presidency," Gowdy said of Schiff.
Gowdy suggested House Speaker Nancy Pelosi could potentially remove Schiff as chairman of the committee.
"The next thing that's going to happen is the different intelligence entities are going to say, 'You know what, Chairman Schiff, if you don't believe the information we provide to you if you have the president of the United States, not just indicted but in jail and you continue to leak like a screen door on a submarine, we're going to quit giving you information,'" said Gowdy.
"That's when Pelosi will replace Adam Schiff with someone like Jim Himes, who is someone who is a smarter and a lot more reasonable."
Schiff has long been accused of leaking information to the media regarding the Russia probe.
