BREAKING: Republican to file censure vote on Democrat who stole 5 million from FEMA

Republican Rep. Greg Steube is filing a privileged motion tomorrow morning to censure Rep. Cherfilus McCormick, who was indicted today for stealing 5 million from FEMA and using part of it fund her campaign, among other things.

Here’s what he wrote on X:

Tomorrow morning I will be filing a privileged motion to censure Rep. Cherfilus McCormick and remove her from all committees.

This is one of the most egregious abuses of public trust I have ever seen. Stealing $5 million in taxpayer disaster funds from FEMA of all places is beyond indefensible. Millions of Floridians have relied on FEMA after devastating hurricanes, and that money was supposed to help real disaster victims.

And once House Ethics concludes their investigation or she is formally convicted, rest assured I will move to expel her from Congress.

McCormick is on both the Committee on Foreign Affairs and the Committee on Veterans’ Affairs. We’ll see if Democrats want to protect her too.
