Sebastian Gorka calls Republicans who voted not to censure Adam Schiff 'establishment'
The vote was 225 to 196 with 20 Republicans voting alongside Democrats to table the resolution.
Former Deputy Assistant to the President of the United States, Sebastian Gorka, called out the 20 Republican House members who voted not to censure Adam Schiff.
"This is your establishment GOP," Gorka said on the Wednesday edition of the "Just the News, No Noise" TV show.
"Censuring means nothing," he said later. "Okay? It's a symbolic slap on the wrist. And they couldn't even do that to one of the most disgusting people in Congress? It tells me we have a lot of work to do."
The House voted on Wednesday to kill GOP Rep. Anna Paulina Luna's bill that would have censured California Democrat Rep. Adam Schiff.
The vote was 225 to 196, with seven members voting present. 20 Republicans voted alongside Democrats to table the resolution.
Schiff has gotten a lot of criticism from Republicans for his role in investigating former President Donald Trump. Many of them said Schiff had made reckless and partisan claims, especially after the release of the Durham report, which indicated that the FBI began its investigation of the 2016 Trump campaign without any predicating evidence.
The group of the House members who voted with the Democrats includes Reps. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) and Warren Davidson (R-Oh.).
