Florida GOP Rep Introduces BOLD Resolution To Censure Adam Schiff

Republican Representative Anna Paulina Luna from Florida has taken a bold step by filing a privileged resolution to censure, condemn, and fine Democratic Representative Adam Schiff for his "egregious abuse of trust" last month.

The resolution, if successful, could result in a $16 million fine imposed on Schiff, which is half the cost of the Russia hoax investigation. Last week, Schiff dodged receiving a public rebuke from his colleagues because 20 Republicans voted with Democrats to table the resolution. The chamber voted 225-196-7, with twenty Republicans voting with Democrats to block the resolution, while seven lawmakers, five Democrats, and two Republicans, voted present. Even President Trump called for the 20 pro-Schiff Republicans to be primaried.

Now, the representative from Southern California is going to face judgment again. "I have called up my censure motion and will be bringing the vote to hold Adam Schiff accountable to the floor [Wednesday]," Rep. Luna announced on Twitter Tuesday night. In a statement, she expressed confidence in securing the necessary votes, with several colleagues indicating their support for the motion. "We have secured the number of votes needed to censure Adam Schiff and refer him to Ethics," Luna said.

Luna emphasized that the motion was not driven by retribution but rather a response to what she perceives as a double standard of justice in the country, exemplified by recent events involving Hunter Biden and the Department of Justice. "It is well within my right as a Congresswoman to file a privileged motion and hold Adam Schiff accountable for abusing and exploiting his official position and bringing dishonor to the House of Representatives. I am fully aware of the constitutionality of it all, and that is what this is about."

"I look forward to restoring honor to the House of Representatives this Wednesday and appreciate the Members who have come forward to support this historical censure in an effort to bring accountability and trust back to this very sacred institution," she said. The Washington Times reported Monday that the resolution's sponsor, Florida Republican Anna Paulina Luna, introduced the resolution again without the fine.
