Twenty House Republicans joined Democrats on Wednesday in voting to table a resolution to censure Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), breaking from the majority of the GOP conference on a measure that was backed by leadership.
The House voted 225-196-7 to effectively kill the measure, which was spearheaded by Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.). It called for censuring and condemning Schiff “for conduct that misleads the American people in a way that is not befitting an elected Member of the House of Representatives.”
It also would have directed the Ethics Committee to conduct an investigation into Schiff’s “lies, misrepresentations, and abuses of sensitive information.”
Twenty Republicans voted with Democrats in favor of the motion to table: Reps. Kelly Armstrong (N.D.), Lori Chavez-DeRemer (Ore.), Juan Ciscomani (Ariz.), Tom Cole (Okla.), Warren Davidson (Ohio), Brian Fitzpatrick (Pa.), Kay Granger (Texas), Garret Graves (La.), Thomas Kean Jr. (N.J.), Kevin Kiley (Calif.), Young Kim (Calif.), Mike Lawler (N.Y.), Thomas Massie (Ky.), Tom McClintock (Calif.), Mark Molinaro (N.Y.), Jay Obernolte (Calif.), Mike Simpson (Ind.), Mike Turner (Ohio), David Valadao (Calif.) and Steve Womack (Ark.).
Schiff in comments after the vote said he was “frankly surprised.”
“And I think it showed a lot of courage for Republican members to stand up to the crazy MAGA folks,” he said.
“I’m astounded by the vote frankly, it was basically almost one of ten Republicans voted against this resolution,” Schiff later added, referring to the resolution to censure him.

Vote those posers out.
I would like to know why these traitors voted to save the POS Schit
Crazy MAGA folks? FU, you piece of Schiff
Thomas Massey apparently did it because he could’ve been fined the amount it took to “investigate” the Russia hoax. Too bad. Let him pay us back for all the money blown on utter nonsense that he promoted.

What a disappointment Massie is
Friggin’ treasonous bitches. They’re not Republicans. They’re commie infiltrators.
Full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
Very likely they don’t want to be obligated to serve under the requirements of such high standards...no matter what reasons they might give for such treachery to the right cause.
Mike Turner......another wasted vote of mine. Unbelievable. Looking back at my voting history is very very sad. I believed what they said when they ran for office.
So now my choice in 2024 is Turner or the Democrat.
The Uniparty is for real.
I’m surprised at Tom McClintock. I thought he was a solid conservative.
I wonder how many would have voted no if their vote was the deciding vote to censor? 50? 100?
Ditto.
Kevin Kiley (Calif.)
Suprised Dan Crenshaw isn’t on the list. He must have gotten the o.k. to vote yes for this motion. Cause he’s a true conservative don’t you know.
I won’t vote for a Dem, but I might write in someone I like who would be anathema to the Deep State & the spineless RINO’s. I’ll also let my gutless, useless POS of a congressman know that, too.
