President Donald Trump is slated to deliver the State of the Union address on Tuesday night, but Democratic Sen. Adam Schiff of California said he will skip the speech for the first time.

In a video posted on Saturday, Schiff accused the president of running afoul of the “law and Constitution.”

“He is ignoring court orders. He has weaponized the Justice Department to go after his enemies. He is letting loose ICE troops in our streets that are getting people killed,” Schiff said.

“I’ve never missed one. I have always gone both to inaugurations and to States of the Union. But we cannot treat this as normal. This is not business as usual. I will not give him the audience he craves for the lies that he tells,” Schiff said.

Fox News Digital reached out to the White House for comment on Monday.

Multiple Democratic lawmakers are planning to skip the president’s address and attend the left-wing event instead.
