Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) on Wednesday unveiled a bill that seeks to remove Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) from Congress over his claims of collusion between former President Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign and Russia.
“Knowingly using your position on House Intel to push a lie that ripped apart our country, cost taxpayers millions of dollars, and authorized spying on a US President and then proceeding to double down on the lie within days of the Durham report coming out makes you unfit for office,” Luna wrote in a tweet on Wednesday. “Ethics should investigate.”
The freshman congresswoman included a photo of the resolution in her tweet.
“Schiff lied to the American people. He used his position on House Intel to push a lie that cost American taxpayers millions of dollars. He is a dishonor to the House of Representatives,” Luna said in a separate tweet from her official congressional account.
Schiff, who led the House Intelligence Committee’s investigation into Trump’s alleged ties with Russia, has long asserted that there is evidence to support the collusion claim.
“I can certainly say with confidence that there is significant evidence of collusion between the campaign and Russia,” Schiff said on March 13, 2018. --->READ MORE HERE
Florida Rep. Anna Paulina Luna has introduced a resolution to expel California Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff from the House following the release of the Durham report, calling him a 'dishonor' to the chamber.
The Trump loyalist, who also earned backing from Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) and Donald Trump Jr. in 2021, filed her resolution on a day the House voted to refer to the Ethics Committee a Democratic motion to expel Rep. George Santos (D-N.Y.), who faces federal corruption and campaign finance charges in New York.
The move comes after Schiff denounced the Durham report as a 'wasted effort,' as it was revealed that the report digs into an incident where a university researcher who met with Schiff's own staff felt threatened by a request to provide analysis of a news article about the Trump Organization and Russia-owned Alfa Bank.
'Schiff lied to the American people. He used his position on House Intel to push a lie that cost American taxpayers millions of dollars. He is a dishonor to the House of Representatives,' the Floridian said.
'The Durham report makes clear that the Russia collusion was a lie from day one and Schiff knowingly used his position in an attempt to divide our country,' she said.
The also tweeted out an image of the resolution.
Schiff, who led Trump's first impeachment as chair of the House Intelligence Committee and who is running for the Senate (House Republicans kicked him off the panel when they took over this year), sought to milk the attack against him. --->READ MORE HERE
