Adam Schiff Censured by House, Still Praised as a Hero<\/h2>\n<p>Despite the House voting to censure Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) on Wednesday, he still has a group of supporters who consider him a hero.<\/p>\n<p>The censure vote was brought against Schiff due to his involvement in promoting the theory of collusion between former President Donald Trump and Russia during the 2016 campaign. This marks the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/adam-schiff-censure-what-historic-vote-means-for-the-highest-profile-senate-race-in-the-country\/\" title=\"Impact of Adam Schiff's censure on crucial Senate race.\">25th time<\/a> in the House&#8217;s history that a member has been censured, and the second attempt to censure Schiff personally.<\/p>\n<h3>Supporters Speak Out<\/h3>\n<p>One of Schiff&#8217;s fellow House members, Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL), took to the House floor just before the vote to express his opposition to the censure. Krishnamoorthi referred to the vote as a &#8220;joke&#8221; and urged his colleagues to vote against it.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Today we&#8217;re voting on a joke of a measure to censure Adam Schiff, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/johnny-isakson-longtime-georgia-senator-dies-at-76\/\" title=\"Johnny Isakson, Longtime Georgia Senator, Dies At 76\">true public servant<\/a> and patriot,&#8221; Krishnamoorthi said. &#8220;I urge a strong &#8216;no&#8217; against this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/democrat-introduces-resolution-to-remove-rep-greene-from-congress\/\" title=\"Democrat introduces resolution to remove Rep. Greene from Congress\">resolution targeting<\/a> a true American hero.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Gabriel Schoenfeld, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/media-say-bidens-female-led-comms-is-a-first-trump-has-that-now\/\" title=\"Media Say Biden's Female-Led Comms Is A First. Trump Has That Now\">senior fellow<\/a> at the Niskanen Center, also expressed concern about the censure vote during an appearance on Morning Joe. He described it as a &#8220;precarious moment for American democracy&#8221; and emphasized Schiff&#8217;s role in exposing the misdeeds of the Trump administration.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;I think this is a very precarious moment for American democracy,&#8221; Schoenfeld said. &#8220;I think the censure of Adam Schiff is a kind of really a turning point or a landmark in this process, where a man who has actually played a heroic role in exposing the misdeeds of the Trump administration, exposing Donald Trump&#8217;s terrible behavior has been censured for \u2014 for doing basically the honest job of Congress.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Schoenfeld also expressed concern that the censure vote could potentially pave the way for Trump to return to office.<\/p>\n<h3>Some Republicans Opt for &#8220;Present&#8221; Vote<\/h3>\n<p>Not all Republicans voted in favor of censuring Schiff. Reps. Ken Buck (R-CO), Michael Guest (R-MS), Dave Joyce (R-OH), John Rutherford (R-FL), and Andrew Garbarino (R-NY) chose to vote &#8220;present&#8221; instead.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\">Click here<\/a> to read more from The Washington Examiner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rep.
