Congressman Adam Schiff, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna Rep. Anna Paulina Luna on Tuesday called on the House to “censure and condemn” far-left Congressma
Rep. Anna Paulina Luna on Tuesday called on the House to “censure and condemn” far-left Congressman Adam Schiff for his repeated lies about former President Donald Trump’s involvement with Russia.
She also wants to hit Schiff with a $16 million fine to recoup some of the taxpayers’ money spent pursuing the California Demcorat’s phony claims about Trump.
“Schiff just hit the fan,” the Clearwater Republican tweeted after news of her resolution broke.
Schiff, once the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, claimed for years after the 2016 election to have secret evidence that Trump colluded with the Kremlin to steal the White House from Hillary Clinton.

No such evidence ever materialized, and the left’s assertions about Trump have been formally debunked twice, first by former Special Counsel Robert Mueller in 2019 and earlier this year by Special Counsel John Durham. Durham’s report maintained that the FBI should never have opened the case against Trump because it was so flimsy and speculative.
“By repeatedly telling these falsehoods, Representative Schiff purposely deceived his Committee, Congress, and the American people,” Luna said in the resolution.
“Schiff behaved dishonestly and dishonorably on many other occasions,” Luna added, especially by lying about his staff’s coordination with the supposed whistleblower who targeted Trump over his 2019 phone call to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, which led to Trump’s first impeachment.
“Schiff exploited his positions on [the Intelligence Committee] to encourage and excuse abusive intelligence investigations of Americans for political purposes,” and also “used his position and access to sensitive information to instigate a fraudulently based investigation, which he then used to amass political gain and fundraising dollars.”

Luna contends that “American taxpayers paid $32 million to fund the investigation into collusion that was launched as a result of Rep. Schiff’s lies, misrepresentations, and abuses of sensitive information.”
As The Free Press has reported, Luna, in mid-May, filed a one-sentence resolution calling for Schiff to be expelled from the House.
“Schiff lied to the American people. He used his position on House Intel to push a lie that cost American taxpayers millions of dollars. He is a dishonor to the House of Representatives,” she said at the time.
