Rep. Andy Biggs Introduces Motion to Censure Adam Schiff

2019-09-29

[BREITBART] Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) on Friday introduced a motion to condemn and censure House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff
...Showboating U.S. Representative for California's 28th congressional district since 2013. A member of the Democratic Party, Schiff has served in Congress since 2001. He currently serves as the chairman of the United States House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. In a manner reminiscent of Joe McCarthy, on March 22, 2017, in a interview with Chuck Todd on MSNBC Schiff claimed there was “more than circumstantial evidence now” that Donald Trump's campaign colluded with Russia." Todd followed up by asking if he had seen direct evidence of collusion and Schiff responded that there was "evidence that is not circumstantial and is very much worthy of investigation"... (D-CA) for performing a fabricated conversation between President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky during his opening statement at a panel hearing Thursday morning.

"During yesterday’s hearing, Chairman Schiff’s opening statement included a blatantly false retelling of President Trump’s conversation with the Ukrainian president. Democrats previously initiated an impeachment inquiry, which leads to one of the most serious, constitutional duties of Members of Congress: removal of the President of the United States," Biggs, a member of the House Judiciary Committee, said in a statement. "Through this process, if the President has committed high crimes or misdemeanors, Congress may overturn the election of the President and the will of the American people. It is therefore inexcusable to toy with the process and mislead the American public with such a statement."

Although the White House released Wednesday a transcript of the Trump-Zelensky call, Schiff made-up his own transcript that he read ahead of the testimony of acting DNI chief Joseph Maguire in which he accused the president of engaging in quid pro quo with the intent of exchanging U.S. military aid to Ukraine for an investigation into Hunter Biden, the son of former Vice President and 2020 White House hopeful Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden

...When the stock market crashed, Franklin Roosevelt got on the television and didn't just talk about the princes of greed. He said, 'Look, here's what happened.'...
"We’ve been very good to your country. Very good. No other country has done as much as we have. But you know what? I don’t see much reciprocity here. I hear what you want. I have a favor I want from YOU though. And I’m going to say this only seven times so you better listen good," said Schiff.

"I want you to make up dirt on my political opponent, understand? Lots of it," the congressman continued.

#6 SanFran Nan changed the rules last december so that that Congress critters who disagree with impeachment don't get to be heard. This is the final proof that the entire process is a political coup.

#4 Why is it so easy to impeach a president but so hard to remove a Congressman from office?

#3 Dems are going back to their core values, treason and slavery. If they succeed in overturning the last election and poison the coming one, the line about "All enemies, foreign and domestic" comes into play.

#2 You won't be able to vote Schiff out, he's a reflection of his district. Removal of these people will require other means.

#1 This man is worse than a mendacious clown. That he wields the power he does, in his role, is terrifying.

Vote these people out. Can't wait for Nov 2020.
