Schiff's claimed evidence was Don junior welcomed the Russians offer of dirt on Hillary, Manafort shared internal polling data with Kilimnik, Roger Stone had a contact with WikiLeaks notifying the campaign of leaks beforehand, and Trump senior was reading those leaked documents at his rallies. You may not agree that is evidence of collusion but that's your opinion.
Hillary collluded with the Russians to produce the Steele Dossier and I just shared a video of Schiff being pranked by a comedian while trying to get dirt on Trump. And the person Trump Jr met with had just met with Fusion GPS. It was set up.

Interference in an election is not usually so sophisticated as to alter voting machines. The best voting machines are electronic combined with paper.

The worst are paper ballots, which is why a group called the "Elders" have been lobbying to go back to paper ballots.

Interference can be spreading lies and leaks about a particular candidate. Interference can be, as childeye 2 indicated, Russia sharing information their intelligence had gathered to hurt Trump's opponent.

Interference, used frequently in red states, can mean removing polling places and creating long lines in inner cities that vote Democratic while having ample polling opportunities with short waits in Republican areas.

There is no reason why city dwellers in places like Ohio, Georgia, and Florida have to wait hours and hours to vote while rural and suburban voters sail in and out. There is no reason why water cannot be provided to Atlanta voters on long lines due to government voter interference.

It is not the actual "vote" that disappears (or is augmented). It is preventing certain voters from voting combined with spreading lies and rumors obtained from a hostile foreign government.

You mean lies and rumors from a hostile foreign government like the Steele Dossier?

"A competent prosecutor can convince a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich."

Various studies have suggested that the rate of indictment by a grand jury ranges from approximately 95% to approximately 99%.

Indictments are meaningless.
Schiff was censured, not indicted.

Indictments are with meaning as they are a formal accusation which includes arrest, photo and fingerprinting and an arraignment. I am sure you would think differently if you are ever indicted.

Is there anyone here who can tell me what McCarthy is expecting the ethics committee to investigate?
The resolution of censure also said the California Democrat, a vocal critic of former President Donald Trump and a prosecutor at Trump’s first impeachment trial, would be investigated by the Ethics Committee for “falsehoods, misrepresentations, and abuses of sensitive information.”

But what is there to investigate? The House has already decided he did this and has determined the punishment, censure.

The Steele Dossier was not compiled by a foreign government.

Apparently they’re not through

Doesn’t sound correct to determine guilt and deliver punishment before the investigation is complete. What if they finish the investigation and discover new information that Schiff was right all along? What are they going to do then?

Probably the same thing the Democrats have been doing for the last 6 years

What punishments have Democrats given out before an investigation was complete?

You asked what they were going to do, not what they’ve already done

I know what I asked. What is the House going to do if more information comes to light in this investigation that shows that Schiff was correct all along? What is the House going to do? You mentioned something that Democrats have done in the past but I have no clue what you are talking about. Maybe you can be more specific.
