Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) is facing criticism from family members after voting to impeach former President Donald Trump last month, according to a letter published this week.

Kinzinger’s cousin Karen Otto and 10 other relatives mailed him a handwritten letter, telling him: “We were once so proud of your accomplishments! Instead, you go against your Christian principles and join the ‘Devil’s army’ (Democrats and the fake news media).”
