Nancy Mace (R-SC) has introduced a resolution to censure Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL) following allegations against Mills involving <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/ive-been-with-some-of-you-when-weve-been-shot-at-biden-revives-story-of-being-under-fire\/\" title=\"\u2018I\u2019ve Been With Some Of You When We\u2019ve Been Shot At\u2019: Biden Revives Story Of Being Under Fire\">stolen valor<\/a>, arms deals under investigation, abuses toward women, and financial misconduct. Mace aims to remove Mills from the House Armed Services Committee, citing integrity concerns rather than party politics. Mills faces accusations including domestic violence, falsifying military honors, and profiting improperly from federal contracts, though he denies wrongdoing and maintains compliance with laws and ethics rules.<\/p>\n<p>The censure effort intensified amid claims of a &#8220;backdoor&#8221; political deal on Capitol Hill that temporarily halted a censure resolution against Democratic Delegate Stacey Plaskett, provoking outrage among Republican members calling out what they describe as &#8220;swamp behaviour&#8221; and protection of corrupt figures within congress. Mills also denied that any such deal occurred and expressed surprise that a scheduled vote on his censure was delayed.<\/p>\n<p>Mace made her censure resolution privileged, requiring GOP leadership to address it promptly, with a vote expected soon. Simultaneously occurring, Democrats considered retaliatory censures against Mills but dropped those efforts after procedural setbacks. This controversy unfolds as Congress returns from recess amid broader tensions over ethics and conduct among its members.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Nancy Mace moves to censure Cory Mills as House outrage over DC swamp explodes<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2407977\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Rep. <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/nancy-mace\/\">Nancy Mace <\/a>(R-SC) moved to censure Rep.

No more hiding behind the establishment to protect abusers and grifters. This is swamp behavior at its worst.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Mills has been accused of domestic violence, stolen valor over a Bronze Star he claims he was awarded, and of financial misconduct that was outlined in a <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/3361728\/cory-mills-house-ethics-committee-investigation-alleged-financial-violations\/\">House Ethics Committee report<\/a> earlier this year. Mills has denied any wrongdoing. <\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Congressman Mills is committed to complying with all laws and ethics rules and is pleased that the Federal Election Commission recently dismissed a complaint with similar allegations,&rdquo; a Mills spokesperson wrote to the&nbsp;<em>Washington Examiner<\/em> at the time. &ldquo;We trust the House Ethics Committee will come to a similar conclusion.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The censure comes after an outraged group of Republican women said three Republicans voted with all Democrats on Tuesday to halt the censure of Democratic Virgin Islands Del. Stacey Plaskett over her text messages with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;3 Republicans crossed the aisle and voted with Democrats to stop the Plaskett censure resolution in a swap so that Democrats would not bring up the Cory Mills (R) censure resolution for alleged physical assaults and threatening to release pornography on an ex-girlfriend and ethics violations and questionable military record,&rdquo; Rep.

So, with full transparency, my team and I fully expected that a vote to censure me would be brought to the floor yesterday. We prepared for it. But it never came, which surprised us just as much as anyone else. And let me be perfectly clear: there was no backroom deal, no negotiation, and no quid pro quo of any kind that would have forced the Democrats to stand down on that vote against me. Anyone pushing that narrative is simply wrong.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Mace made her proposal a privileged resolution, forcing GOP leadership to act on the matter within two legislative days, with a vote expected later this week.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats threatened to bring three censures against Mills in retaliation for resolutions against their own members, but dropped their efforts after motions against those Democrats failed. Mills has been involved in many controversies, most recently when a judge granted a restraining order to his ex-girlfriend after she accused Mills of threatening and harassing her.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This all comes after multiple pushes to punish Congress members during their first <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >full week back<\/a> after being in recess for the entire government shutdown.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/house\/3889815\/members-congress-address-toxicity-security-threats-marjorie-taylor-greene\/\">MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE CALLS OUT THE UGLY SIDE OF POLITICS AS CONGRESS GRAPPLES WITH TOXICITY AND &lsquo;PLAIN NASTINESS&rsquo;<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;There&rsquo;s a long list of Republicans worthy of censure, a long list of Republicans, not enough time in the legislative calendar if Republicans want to go down this road of censuring members or throwing them off committee,&rdquo; House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) told the <em>Washington Examiner<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><em>Rachel Schilke contributed to this article.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nancy Mace seeks to censure Cory Mills over allegations<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3691,"featured_media":2512429,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-collage-anhwjq9mr-1763577613480.jpg?1763563133&amp;w=696","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[39530,39988,62534,35392,59246],"class_list":["post-2512428","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-cory-mills","tag-dc-swamp","tag-house-censure","tag-nancy-mace","tag-political-outrage"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-collage-anhwjq9mr-1763577613480.jpg?1763563133&amp;w=696","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2512428","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3691"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2512428"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2512428\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2512432,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2512428\/revisions\/2512432"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2512429"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2512428"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2512428"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2512428"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
