Good grief, who needs Democrat firepower when you can always count on Republicans to shoot themselves to save their enemies. Twenty House Republicans joined with House Democrats to defeat a censure motion that would have triggered an investigation of the notoriously corrupt Adam Schiff (CA).
Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL), who really does seem to be a great MAGA addition to the House, created a censure motion that she advanced on Tuesday. Luna’s measure would have formally reprimanded Schiff for his conduct while Chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI), where he lied about Trump-Russia intelligence.
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy blocked Schiff from the HPSCI this year and Luna’s measure would have established an ethics investigation that could have resulted in a $16,000,000 fine if they found he committed the infractions.
As ridiculous as this sounds, 20 House Republicans came quickly to Adam Schiff’s defense. Current “Republican” HPSCI Chairman Mike Turner (OH) was one of the GOP members who supported Schiff along with Republican Thomas Massie (KY) who recently endorsed Ron DeSantis. What a bunch of knuckleheads.
(WASHINGTON DC) – Republicans joined most Democrats in voting to table a measure to censure Rep. Adam Schiff for his previous leadership of the House Intelligence Committee and probes into former President Donald Trump.
The vote: The measure was tabled by a 225-196 vote, with 20 Republicans voting alongside most Democrats. Other Democratic lawmakers were lined up ready to defend the Californian on the floor, but Wednesday’s vote stops the effort from advancing to a full House vote.
Schiff’s response: “It’s a continuation of a downward spiral. There are a number of members here now who are just kind of ugly performance artists. It’s all about getting attention, doesn’t matter whether it’s good attention or bad attention, it’s all about the notoriety,” Schiff told reporters after the vote.
Republicans from districts won by President Joe Biden like Rep. Mike Lawler (R-N.Y.) and the current chair of the House Intelligence Committee, Mike Turner (R-Ohio), were among the Republicans who voted with Democrats to defeat the measure.
Seven lawmakers voted present on the measure, including all five Democratic members of the House Ethics Committee and Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.). Democratic ethics panel members generally vote present on any ethics matters that come before the House. (more)
With this vote, Massie has proven himself a complete fraud!!
It is unsurprising that House Resolution 437 did not pass. Nor will an amended version pass.
Most of the Republicans were just as much in on the lie as Democrats were. Adam Schiff was just the spokesperson.
In an odd sort of way, I have more respect for the Democrats, than I do for the Republicans. At least the former will look you in the eye when they stab you.
Time they got stabbed right back.
If any of you gutless wonders in the house read this, I have one thing to say. So, you thought this was unconstitutional, well so were all the attacks on Trump. You should have voted for it and let this sorry lying son of a bitch spend some of his millions on legal fees. You are useless and we may as well give it all to the democrats. At least there won’t be disappointment.
I hope all of the house members that voted to kill this bill, likes it now that Schiff is out there laughing at them for doing him a favor and doing nothing to stop him from attacking President Trump on some other mocked up charge He should have been given a full scope of the charge and then he might have learned how to shut his mouth but now he is laughing.
This also shows that McCarthy does not know how to bring his people together and make them do what he wants them to do right or wrong he is a poor leader.
DC Draino is going to put out something tomorrow about this bunch of traitors and its appears they all took money from the CCP and its not going to be nice for them once this comes out.. They all better run for cover

It is mine to avenge; I will repay.
In due time their foot will slip;
their day of disaster is near
and their doom rushes upon them.”

So, RINOs when does Schiff’s trial for perjury begin? Idiots these 20.
They’re so dumb that they don’t get that if the tables were turned, every Dem would have voted against the Republican House member.
To RHINO REPS:
Go the tail end of any mammal.
Lift tail if it’s covering the mirror right there looking back at you.
I’m in Ciscomani’s district. I called his Washington office and had a discussion (unexpectedly pleasant) with them. This is not over. He correctly understands the unconstitutional actions of Schiff and intends to censure. Issue has to do with “legality” of $16 million fine, which would likely fail in court. It might be good not to rush into judgment on this one.
RINOS and DIABLOS are the ones that Patrick Henry, Edmond Burke, ROMANS 1 and 1 Cor 5 all warn us about, pretending their “Pacifism” is a Virtue and they use it to ENABLE the Destruction of Freedom and the Victory of Tyrants, as they present Friendly “Tolerant” aires towards all faces of Lascivious Evil.
Play Nicey Nice with your mortal enemy snakes, and they will eat you. And never think twice about it.
Now move to censure the 20 traitors.
Time for DC to flush itself down the sewers.
