Republican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy of California suggested that Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff of California should face expulsion from Congress after the revelations from the Durham report were released Monday.
McCarthy made the comments while addressing the media on Wednesday when he was asked what the consequences of the report would be.
"Well, a number of things, we're asking Durham to come in and testify so that we can look at it more," said McCarthy.
"It really raises the question about Adam Schiff. Remember when he told the American people he had proof? Remember when he told them he didn't know the whistleblower? And what he put American through? And openly lied to us?" he added.
"And now it's proven in this as well? It raises a lot of questions about his, just his character, his standing inside of Congress," he said.
"And whether he should even be in Congress," McCarthy concluded.
