GOP's Attempt to Censure Adam Schiff Fails in House Vote.

The U.S. House of Representatives rejected a Republican effort to censure Democrat Adam Schiff, who played a leading role in the first impeachment of then-President Donald Trump in 2019. The motion was defeated by a vote of 225 to 196, with 20 Republicans joining 205 Democrats in opposition. The censure was based on an investigation Schiff led into potential ties between Trump's 2016 campaign and the Russian government, which the sponsors argued was politically motivated. Schiff called the motion "a clear attack on our constitutional system of checks and balances."
