House Freedom Caucus member Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) initiated a motion to censure Democrat Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Adam Schiff. 185 Republicans were expected to vote yes on the resolution this afternoon. Speaker Pelosi, however, blocked the motion from a vote. Rep. Biggs took to Twitter to share a video of his impassioned speech on the House floor, where he outlined the reasons why the Republicans believe Chairman Schiff should be censured and should “immediately resign” over his “reckless disregard for the truth.” Biggs also blasted Rep. Adama Schiff for his “secret impeachment inquiry” designed to “undermine the will of Americans.”

Watch:

Adam Schiff may not have been held accountable tonight, but the American people are very much aware of his reckless disregard for the truth. They will not tolerate his calculated words and actions as he continues his secret impeachment inquiry to undermine the will of Americans. pic.twitter.com/mVp5DMTy4g — Rep Andy Biggs (@RepAndyBiggsAZ) October 21, 2019

On his way to the House floor to vote for a bill he co-sponsored, that would censure House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff, Rep.Kevin Brady (R-TX) blasted the lying lawmaker in the halls of Congress.

He has shirked his responsibilities as Chairman, abandoned his duty as a Congressman, & forgotten his sense of fairness & justice throughout this impeachment hoax. It’s shameful that not one Dem voted to hold him accountable.

There were at least 30 more tweets we didn’t show from Republican lawmakers who shared their disgust for Chairman Schiff and their fellow Democrat lawmaker’s underhanded and dirty tricks. It should also be noted that Democrat lawmakers have been dragging America through this nightmare for almost 3 years in an effort to undo the results of the 2016 presidential election.
