    Schiff is a putz. Swalwell is a joke.

    Nothing of value has been lost.

    That makes it a safe seat for the Democrats. In the House, Democrats vote as a block, so it doesn't matter that much who the Democrat Congressperson is.

    Evidence: Swalwell's lover was a CCP spy.

    So when does Santos lose his committee assignments ?
    Is he being excluded from the House intelligence briefing ?

    I'm sure you'll defend anything McCarthy and the Republicans do or don't do because..........well.......they're Republicans.

    Is he in the House? Or is chorus reflexive outrage over any criticism of the shameless hypocrisy of MAGAScum McCarrthy just to scream "but Joe Biden....................."

    Swalwell is compromised. No way should he be allowed access to national defense information. His feelings, along with yours, don't outweigh the risk to national security.

    If he were a Republican, you all would be screaming the exact same thing.

    If Erick was compromised by Chinese and shared National Security information with Chinese, why didn’t Trump DOJ and FBI put him behind bar and charged him with Espionage? Seems like Trump was too busy calling people spy in twitter while his DOJ and FBI was sleeping.

    If he is compromised and he was sharing information with Chinese why didn’t Trump’s DOJ charged him with espionage?

    I have a answer, outside republican gossip column and Trump’s twitter feed, there isn’t any fact that can be presented in court.

    Watching the left lose their proverbial minds for losing SOME of their committee assignments while they 100% condone those on the right who lost all committee assignments makes me chuckle inside. So amusing watching the tap dance continually with this and said confidential documents...

    Well, as long as hypocrisy rules in the trenches the overlords will make merry in their ivory towers and the minions will live on tater soup and blame each other for not enough taters!

    WHY would anybody "lose their minds" over something that they can't control?
    Only Idiots like Donald Trump (whining about getting banned from Twitter) would "lose their minds" over Bullshit that they can't control...

    Ahhh another example where leadership told the dems, if you break precedence and kick our members off committees, we will be forced to kick your members off the next time we have control. Dems said f'u they're off, now I can't believe you're kicking our village idiots off? They love changing the rules yet cry when their change affects them. It's hilarious.

    How do you know he isn't compromised? What if you're wrong and he is compromised? Are yours and his feelings worth the risk to national security? Is Eric Swalwell really worth the risk if you're wrong? I mean, this the same idiot that wants to nuke United States citizens.

    Oh, well, let's risk national security for this one jerk off Congress critter. Be honest: does that make ANY sense?

    You dudes proclaim to be national security hawks and patriots nowadays, but you want a guy who dated a Chinese spy, for years, to sit on the House intel committee...lol

    NPR now a right-wing gossip column. LOL I've heard it all now. It's really easy, the FBI director met with Macarthy and Pelosi and told them ole Eric was doing the dirty with a CCP spy. The opportunity was there for compromise, it doesn't matter if he wasn't sneaking secrets to her, he does not need to be on the intelligence committee. Use your brain not your partisan heart, it's playing with fire.

    What was Trump supposed to do? The president can't arrest anyone.

    Meet the New McCarthy, Not the Same as the Old McCarthy. “It’s safe to say that McCarthy and Schiff won’t be meeting up for lunch anytime soon. It’s a comfort knowing that, because this is no time to be cozying up to the Democrats, especially any who were cheerleaders for, or who were members of the House J6 Soviet Select Committee on Daddy Issues.”

    [​IMG]

    “What did Adam Schiff do as the chairman of the Intel Committee? What Adam Schiff did—use his power as a chairman and lie to the American public, even the inspector general said it,” McCarthy said, before going through several of Schiff’s offenses, including lying about the Nunes Memo, and using his position as chairman of the Intelligence Committee to lie about Trump/Russia collusion and the Hunter Biden laptop.

    “So no, he does not have a right to sit on that [committee],” McCarthy said.

    'Adam Schiff is absolute filth, and this isn’t the first time that McCarthy has called him a liar to the press since becoming speaker. It’s something that cannot be said enough.'

    McCarthy gabe 'the idiot “journalist” a lesson in the difference between the Intelligence Committee and other House committees.'

    'McCarthy explained that Santos was duly elected by the people of his district, and he would not deny him — or Schiff or Swallowswell — assignments on other committees. The Intelligence Committee, however, is a different ballgame because it is directly involved in national security. It needs some higher quality people on it.'
