House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) gave credence on June 15 to the 20 House Republicans who joined Democrats the previous day to successfully shelve a censure resolution of Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.).

“I think everybody knows my thoughts of Adam Schiff,“ McCarthy told The Epoch Times. ”That’s why I removed him from [the House Intelligence Committee]. ... You have a number of members on principle that sat and argued for the last four years with President [Donald] Trump that you had to have due process and voted that way. And I think a number of them believe that they should [have] gone to [the House Ethics Committee] first.”
