“The Oversight chairperson is totally out of control and unhinged. They’re obsessed with Adam Schiff,” Jeffries said on Thursday. “First, they kick him off the Intel Committee, then they try to fine him $16 million. That fails, Donald Trump threatens to primary them, and they immediately respond to the puppet master by bringing a censure resolution back to the floor.
“We're going to continue to focus on solving challenges for everyday Americans and growing the middle class and focusing on kitchen table pocketbook issues that actually make life better for everyday Americans,” Jeffries said. Jeffries’s comments may be a reference to Rep. George Santos , who avoided an expulsion last month after Republicans voted to transfer the resolution to the Ethics Committee, dealing a blow to Democrats who sought to expel Santos from the House immediately. The move to expel Santos comes after the New York Republican was indicted by the DOJ last month on 13 counts of wire fraud, money laundering, theft of public funds, and lying to Congress.
