Solid ground if he would not talked out of both sides of his mouth by giving lying drag queen Santos two committee assignment seats.

Get the Crying Towels Out: Swalwell, Schiff and Omar Hold Presser to Whine More

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) finally booted Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) and Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) from the House Intelligence Committee. He lit into them during questioning from reporters. He laid out lies that Schiff had told when he decimated why he shouldn’t be on the Intel Committee, lying about the Nunes memo, the Hunter Biden laptop, claiming he didn’t know the impeachment whistleblower when his staff had met with him. He pointed out how Schiff doesn’t have a right to sit on the Intel Committee because it went to the “national security of America.”

In terms of Swalwell, McCarthy pointed out how the FBI came to him and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to tell them their concerns about Swalwell’s relationship with the Chinese spy.

McCarthy said that they could serve on other committees, but not that one. “They will not serve,” McCarthy said. “Because integrity matters to me.”

The issues with both Swalwell and Schiff have been known and long-standing. I reported earlier about how the pair was whining about being kicked off. The Twittersphere was also letting them have it.

But now they’ve held a presser, misleading the American people and showing just why they should never be on the Intel Committee.

Talk about projection when Schiff accuses McCarthy of making the Intel Committee a “political plaything.” That’s what Schiff did and what McCarthy is trying to get away from.

He grouses that McCarthy shouldn’t get to decide all for himself who should be on the Committee. But isn’t that just what former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) did with the Jan. 6 Committee, without the same cause that McCarthy has to boot Schiff and Swalwell? He claims that McCarthy’s actions and having a “Weaponization Committee” would cause the intelligence community to distrust the Committee. No, McCarthy’s actions will cause the American people to have more faith in the fairness of the process, and that’s who the representatives are supposed to be serving, not the intelligence community. If the intelligence community is disturbed about the Committee now being honest, then that’s a problem with the intelligence community that needs to be dealt with. You can see how worried Schiff is that this is going to upend the Democrats’ hold on power.

Listen as Schiff can’t even control himself and is lying now about McCarthy’s very clear reasons. Schiff claims it has to do with the ridiculous Democratic impeachment of Trump, where Trump was acquitted. But if you listened to Schiff’s misleading here, you might think Trump was convicted, as he claims they “proved those facts” when indeed, they did not.

“The cardinal sin appears to be that I led the impeachment of [Kevin McCarthy’s] master in Mar-a-Lago.”

This is exactly why he should have gotten the boot, long ago.

This was perhaps one of the funniest comments of the presser when Schiff talks about Rep. George Santos (R-NY). Imagine Schiff calling anyone else a “serial fabricator.”

Plus, Santos isn’t on the Intel Committee.

Swalwell acted similarly.

First, he tried to blame McCarthy for “shattering” what had always been a bipartisan committee. But it was the Democrats that did that first, with the Jan. 6 Committee, making it a purely political Committee in their effort to try to smear the Republicans and Trump. So holding Schiff and Swalwell to account for their actions isn’t being partisan, it’s bringing the Intel Committee back to what it should be as opposed to tainting it and not being able to trust what was said when Schiff was chair.

Then Swalwell tried to blame McCarthy for getting death threats. That’s ridiculous — many politicians get death threats, and McCarthy isn’t encouraging that. “There’s an intent behind it,” Swalwell falsely claims. But that shows how they can’t even support their position without throwing out ridiculous smears like this. McCarthy isn’t calling for any death threats. I’m sure he gets some as well, but he isn’t whining like a baby and trying to stoke more anger like Swalwell and Schiff are. Swalwell is not the victim here.

The American people deserve people they can trust on this most important Committee and these two are not those people.

Mike Pompeo accuses Adam Schiff of leaking classified info during time on House intel panel

Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Wednesday lauded House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s decision to kick Rep. Adam Schiff off the House Intelligence Committee, accusing the California Democrat of leaking classified information when he was on the panel.

“Adam Schiff lied to the American people, and during my time as CIA director and secretary of State, I know that he leaked classified information that had been provided to him,” Pompeo alleged during an interview with Fox News.

Pompeo, who served on the Intelligence Committee with Schiff when he represented Kansas in Congress, said that McCarthy (R-Calif.) was “exactly right” to boot the California Democrat, and he argued that Schiff’s tenure as chairman on the panel “almost ruined that committee.”

Pompeo added that as secretary of state, he was troubled by Schiff’s behavior and didn’t feel comfortable providing the intel committee information.

“When we provided information to him and to his staff, it ended up in places it shouldn’t have been with alarming regularity,” Pompeo explained. “In the end, I decided, I held back information from them as a result.”

“I watched the House Intelligence Committee under the leadership of Adam Schiff. I watched him denigrate and lower its ability to actually perform its function. When he was out talking about the Russia hoax, going on to say that the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation, knowing that it almost certainly was not,” Pompeo said.

Schiff’s office denied Pompeo’s claims on Wednesday, calling them “patently false.” Pompeo accused Schiff of leaking classified information when he was on the panel. ZUMAPRESS.com

“This is another patently false and defamatory statement from Mike Pompeo. While we understand that Adam Schiff is a favorite target for the failed lackeys of the Trump administration running for president, reputable news outlets shouldn’t repeat these falsehoods,” Lauren French, a spokesperson for the congressman, told the Hill.

McCarthy denied House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries’ (D-NY) effort to reappoint Schiff and Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) to the House Intelligence Committee on Tuesday, saying that he “cannot put partisan loyalty ahead of the national security” and arguing that “the misuse of this panel during the 116th and 117th Congresses severely undermined its primary national security and oversight missions — ultimately leaving our nation less safe.”

In February 2020, then-President Donald Trump accused Schiff of leaking classified information on Russian interference in the run-up to the 2020 US election to hurt then-Democratic presidential front-runner Bernie Sanders.

“I read where Russia is helping Bernie Sanders. Nobody said it to me at all. Nobody briefed me about that at all,” Trump said. “They leaked it, Adam Schiff and his group. They leaked it to the papers and — as usual — they ought to investigate Adam Schiff for leaking that information,” Trump alleged.

Correct me if I'm wrong but this is a new term so no one was kicked off of any committee but instead rejected from re-joining
