{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Editor’s Note: An earlier version of this story misreported the time and place of the incident involving Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., and a heckler. The incident occurred in 2018 in Schiff’s home district of Burbank.
A 2018 video of several angry protesters getting up close and personal with Rep. Adam Schiff, calling the California Democrat a "liar," among other things, and advising him to “Move to Venezuela!" resurfaced on social media this weekend during President Trump's impeachment trial.

Over three days last week, Schiff led a team of Democrats who argued that Trump abused his power by asking Ukraine’s president to investigate the Bidens and withholding $400 million in military aid, allegedly on that condition.
They also claim the president obstructed Congress by blocking witnesses and documents during the House’s impeachment inquiry last fall.

Venezuela, a socialist country, has been in political and economic turmoil for years, partially due to food shortages and hyperinflation.
