A House resolution to censure Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) was effectively killed on Wednesday, after 20 House Republicans voted for a motion to table it. Four Republicans did not vote, and two voted “present.”

[…] Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL), who introduced the resolution, tweeted after the vote:

[…] The resolution called to censure and condemn Schiff for pushing the Russia collusion hoax from his perch in the House Intelligence Committee, claiming numerous times there was circumstantial evidence. Special Counsel Robert Mueller later could find no evidence of any criminal collusion by Trump or his campaign.

The resolution also called to censure Schiff for his role in leading an impeachment inquiry against former President Donald Trump in 2019. During that inquiry, he recited a made-up phone conversation between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymr Zelensky.
