Last week, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) introduced a resolution to censure Schiff and recommend a $16 million fine if the House Ethics Committee found him to have lied in his duties as a congressman.

Twenty Republicans voted with Democrats to kill the measure, as reported by Breitbart News. Some, such as Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), said the fine was unconstitutional. Luna plans to reintroduce the resolution in the coming week but reportedly without the fine.

She told Schiff last week, and also tweeted, “See you next week Adam”

Here's the mug-shot chart of the aptly-named Squish Caucas.

Perhaps the irate phone calls generated by the numbers under their pictures will have some effect on next week's vote.

They’d all probably vote against impeachment as well

The RINOs always seem to prevail. Party voters are too uninformed to replace them in primaries. Even those considered reliable conservative lawmakers often have RINO tendencies, such as McClintock and Massie.

$16,000,000.00 fine? Are they retarded? There was the poison pill that killed the deal right there. I’d like to know what retard put that stupid amount into the works?

NOBODY is going to pay a fine like that, ask Alex Jones. SMH.

Before we get too worked up over that vote, we need to pause for a second and consider:

I heard an interview with Rep Juan Ciscomani (AZ), he voted against the resolution because it contained a $16,000,000 fine. Such fines, were tried by Pelosi, fought in court and ruled unconstitutional.

He added that the fine, as written was to be removed, and another vote would occur next week. He stated he would vote in favor of the next resolution to censure.

This is not over,
