AMERICAN THINKER - Rajan Laad - JAN 30, 2023
A few days back, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) formally removed Rep. Adam Schiff and Rep. Eric Swalwell from the House Intelligence Committee.
This was the right move by McCarthy.
Both Schiff and Swalwell are slippery characters.
Swalwell had a long association or affair with a Chinese spy while Schiff's activity promoted the Steele dossier that led to the amplification of the Trump-Russia collusion hoax, and eventually the Mueller Probe.
Schiff reacted, like all Democrats do, by calling the GOP a party of white nationalists and anti-Semites.
McCarthy also plans to remove Rep. Ilhan Omar from the Foreign Affairs Committee.
Omar is a known anti-Semite who also supports the notorious anti-Israel BDS (Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions) movement. Omar also trivialized the 9-11 terror attacks by claiming ‘"some people did something and that all of us were starting to lose access to our civil liberties."
Omar does not deserve to be on the Foreign Affairs Committee.
House Democrats unanimously approved a list of committee assignments for their members which includes Omar on Foreign Affairs after she applied to stay on.
Removing Omar won’t be easy because it would require a majority of the full House to agree and a group of House Republicans is already opposing the move.
