It’s the best the GOP could do while John Durham is humiliated in a House hearing. Jeers, chants, and boos break out as Republican-controlled House voted to censure Schiff, a longtime antagonist of Trump, making him only the third member to suffer such a rebuke since the turn of the century.

Here are the six Ethics Committee Republicans who voted “present”

Rep. David Joyce (R-OH)

Rep. Michael Guest (R-MS)

Rep. Andrew Garbarino (R-NY)

Rep. Ken Buck (R-CO)

Rep. John Rutherford (R-FL)

Rep. Michelle Fischbach (R-MN)

x Wow. Just wow. Schiff completely exposes Durham and his sham report here. This has completely backfired on the Republicans. https://t.co/6fahw0F4iC — MeidasTouch (@MeidasTouch) June 21, 2023

x BREAKING: The House GOP just censured me for impeaching Trump.



This is not just a political stunt to rile up the MAGA base — it’s an attack on all accountability and constitutional oversight.



But I won’t back down.

McCarthy booed and heckled on House floor after ‘phony’ censure against Democrat Adam Schiff

x Trying to explain republicanism like it’s rational is like sitting down with a Scientologist and debunking xenu and auditing. Fundamentally these are people who think aliens threw souls into a fucking volcano. They aren’t rational actors. — Oliver Willis (@owillis) June 22, 2023
