I hate to ask a rational question, but the censure motion included a whopping fine. Is the fine unconstitutional? It is unprecendented, to my knowledge.

Massie said it was unconstitutional.

There’s nothing unconstitutional about it, and if Massie claims it is then he is verifiably full of Schitt.

Each House may determine the Rules of its Proceedings, punish its Members for disorderly Behaviour and, with the Concurrence of two thirds, expel a Member. -- U.S. Constitution (Article I, Section 5, Clause 2)

“the censure motion included a whopping fine. Is the fine unconstitutional?”

What I heard on War Room a few minutes ago, the fine is just a suggestion to pass on to the Ethics Committee. The Ethics Committee could raise it, lower it, or throw it out.
