Adam Schiff at Republican efforts by tweeting:
It will be said of House Republicans,
When they found they lacked the courage to confront the most dangerous and unethical president in American history,
They consoled themselves by attacking those who did.

Not everyone was impressed with Schiff’s lofty tweet.

As a cosponsor of the resolution to censure Rep. Adam Schiff, I was disappointed Nancy Pelosi did not even allow a vote on the House floor tonight. We need transparency and accountability, not closed door secret meetings. What are they afraid of the American people seeing?

It is disappointing that House Democrats blocked a vote to condemn and censure Chairman Adam Schiff for lying to the American people. The full House of Representatives should have the chance to hold him accountable for his actions. @RepAndyBiggsAZ‘s H.Res. 630 deserves a vote.

Rhonda Kazmierski responded to Schiff directly.
Adam Schiff will go down in history as the Democrat Congressman who committed treason in an effort to overturn the will of the American people, and overturn a duly elected President. You are a criminal, Adam, and your crimes will not go unpunished.
