125 House GOP co-sponsor resolution to censure Schiff over 'parody' reading of Trump-Zelensky call

A motion to censure House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., for his “parody” reading of President Trump’s July phone call with Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky during a hearing last month is gaining steam with House Republicans, as Fox News has learned 125 lawmakers have now signed on as co-sponsors.

The resolution to censure Schiff -- who has become a favorite target of Republicans for his role in the Trump impeachment inquiry -- was first introduced late last month by Rep. Andy Biggs, the Arizona Republican who chairs the conservative House Freedom Caucus, and has the support of House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., House Minority Whip Steve Scalise, R-La., and House Republican Conference Chair Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., among other ranking Republicans in the lower chamber of Congress.

Democrats have the majority and control the floor in the House, but Republicans could still attempt to force a vote on the matter.

Where are the rest of the Republican representatives? They are weak or they are complicit.

Every Republican needs to sign on to this. If one Republican doesn’t, the MSM will say that the failure to censure Schiff was bi-partisan.

Let him babble. Every time he opens his fool mouth he plants his foot squarely in it.
