Republicans voted to censure Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif, in a narrow party-line vote on Wednesday with six GOP House members choosing to vote present.
Joyce told Fox News Digital in a statement after the vote,"As a member of the House Ethics Committee, I have always deemed it appropriate to vote present on legislation related to matters that are or could come before the committee rather than prejudging the outcome of the committee’s investigation." No Democrats voted for his censure.
R-Calif., tried to gavel the House in order for several minutes. Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., was heard calling McCarthy a"spiteful coward" and accusing him of"weak leadership.""To my Republican colleagues who introduced this resolution, I thank you. You honor me with your enmity, you flatter me with this falsehood," Schiff said."You, who are the authors of a big lie about the last election, must condemn the truth tellers.
