Mr. CARSON. Mr. Speaker, what I do know is that Adam Schiff defended the U.S. Constitution. He led an impartial investigation which followed the facts and led to the first of two impeachments of a former President.

As a senior member of the Intelligence Committee, I have had the honor of working closely with Mr. Schiff for years.

He is a man of integrity, and he deeply loves this country like we all do. I urge my colleagues to vote ``no'' on this dangerous and purely vindictive attempt to silence someone because of his work to hold Donald Trump accountable.

I urge my colleagues not to be fooled by these distractions. Don't ignore the facts. This resolution is a fig leaf to hide the very clear facts about a twice-impeached President, a twice-indicted ex-President who has put our national security at risk.

I urge my colleagues to stop these political games and get back to the business of the American people.
