Payback: McCarthy to yank Omar, Swalwell, and Schiff from their House committee assignments

Monica Showalter

"It's good to see these three singled out, which in a competitive field, amount to the three most obnoxious members of Congress. McCarthy's act is a great start to what may be a very good speakership indeed"  Monica Showalter

  Here we go:

House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy told Breitbart News that as speaker of the House he would strip Reps. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and Eric Swalwell (D-CA) of their assignments on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) and Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) of her committee assignment on the House Foreign Affairs Committee.

McCarthy also said Swalwell would not be allowed to serve on the Homeland Security Committee either. McCarthy’s comments came during the latest On The Hill long-form video special, taped in December at an Eastern Market establishment on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC.

“The Democrats have created a new thing where they’re picking and choosing who can be on committees,” McCarthy said. “Never in the history [of Congress] have you had the majority tell the minority who can be on committee. But this new standard which these Democrats have voted for—if Eric Swalwell cannot get a security clearance in the private sector, there is no reason why he should be given one to be on Intel or Homeland Security. He will not be serving there.”

 "That's from Breitbart News's Matthew Boyle, who reports that Omar's history of anti-Semitism and downplaying of 9/11, Swalwell's steamy relationship with a woman the intelligence community identified as a Chinese spy, and Schiff's continuous leaks and lies pretty well made them all unfit for the House intelligence and House foreign affairs committees.

Which couldn't happen to a more malevolent group of leftists, leftists whose contempt for the law and the American people offend at every turn.

Mostly though, it's payback, a continuation of the standards Democrats set themselves when they ousted Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene and Paul Gosar from their committee assignments, on phony accusations that they were out there shilling for Q-Anon, which certainly didn't seem to be obvious to anyone else out there. It was done for spite. They just didn't like them and decided to bully and humiliate them instead of debate them.

Well, now the shoe's on the other tootsie and they're now forced to live under the rules and standards they created themselves.". . .
