In a stunning turn of events, GOP Representative Anna Paulina Luna of Florida has proposed a resolution to impose a hefty $16 million fine on Democratic Congressman Adam Schiff of California for his persistent dissemination of falsehoods regarding alleged Trump-Russia collusion. The sum, according to Luna, amounts to roughly half of the cost incurred by American taxpayers for the extensive federal investigation into this matter, an investigation that ultimately found no evidence of collusion.
Luna’s resolution comes as a resounding rebuke of Schiff, who, throughout the Russiagate saga, found himself embraced by liberal networks eager to promote the Trump-Russia collusion narrative. As chair of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, Schiff held a position of “extreme trust” that granted him access to sensitive information unavailable to other members. However, Luna’s resolution asserts that Schiff “abused this trust” by repeatedly citing evidence of collusion that subsequent special counsel reports unequivocally refuted.
In a scathing indictment, the resolution accuses Schiff of purposely deceiving his committee, Congress, and the American people by disseminating falsehoods. It highlights his role in lending credibility to the infamous Steele dossier, his support for a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant against Trump aide Carter Page, and his public accusations labeling Page as a Russian collaborator. Luna’s resolution argues that Schiff exploited his position and access to sensitive information to instigate a fraudulently based investigation, which he then leveraged for political gain and fundraising purposes.
The resolution further emphasizes the financial burden placed on American taxpayers, who had to shoulder a staggering $32 million to fund an investigation rooted in Schiff’s lies, misrepresentations, and abuse of sensitive information. It censures and condemns Schiff for his conduct, deeming it unworthy of an elected member of the House and imposing the significant fine of $16 million.
Luna, undeterred by the potential backlash, has also introduced a separate resolution seeking to expel Schiff from Congress due to his egregious abuses of power and his perpetuation of false narratives regarding Trump-Russia collusion. These resolutions are part of a broader effort to hold Schiff accountable and ensure that the truth prevails.
Schiff, for his part, has defended himself, claiming that the push to fine him and expel him from Congress is merely an act of political payback for his efforts to hold former President Trump accountable. As he vies for a Senate seat, Schiff stands firm, asserting that he will not be intimidated by those seeking retribution and warning that they will go after anyone who defends the rule of law.
The introduction of Luna’s resolutions and the subsequent debate they will undoubtedly ignite in Congress signify a pivotal moment in the ongoing saga of Trump-Russia collusion. As the truth continues to emerge, it is imperative that those who have abused their positions and misled the American people be held accountable. Only through such accountability can the foundations of trust and integrity be restored, allowing the nation to move forward with clarity and confidence.
Editor’s note: Schiff is a slimy b&*tard with zero ethics. I don’t know if these resolutions will pass the house, but nothing that Schiff does is good for America.
