House Minority Leader McCarthy to call for Rep. Swalwell's removal from intelligence committee
Fox News ^ | 3/13/21 | Audrey Conklin

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., on Friday said he will offer a resolution to remove Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., from the House Intelligence Committee "next week."

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., on Friday reinstated Swalwell onto the committee despite Republican concerns that the former Democratic presidential candidate poses a "national security threat" following reports that an undercover Chinese national, known as Fang Fang, helped fundraise for his 2014 re-election campaign, unbeknownst to Swalwell.

"Pelosi just reappointed Eric Swalwell to the Intelligence Committee," McCarthy tweeted Friday. "Based on the briefing she and I received together, Swalwell should not be on the panel in charge of guarding our nation's secrets. Next week, I will offer a resolution to remove him from the Intel Committee."

A spokesperson for McCarthy told Fox News that the resolution could come as soon as Tuesday, when the lawmaker will force a vote to remove the California Democrat from the committee.

"I'm eager to continue the important work of protecting Americans and supporting the hard-working heroes of our Intelligence Community, and I thank Speaker Pelosi and Chairman Schiff for their support and confidence," Swalwell told Fox News in a statement Saturday.

The congressman on Friday called McCarthy a "loser" in a Friday tweet in response to a tweet from the California Republican calling President Biden's $2 trillion COVID-19 relief package "a liberal wishlist."

Is Swalwell a Chicom information conduit? Sure sounds like it.

Watch how many Democrats join this, and then compare to how many Republicans voted to strip Greene of her committee assignments.

I’m not sure if Nancy Pelosi gives a Tinker’s Damn what House Minority “Leader” McCarthy has to say.
Maybe he’ll find a way to make her care.

Stupid America-backstabbing CCP-LOVING GOP
is too late, and inept. INEPT.

The GOP can only steal, steal from voters,
steal from America, steal the last hopes of those
who voted for, and lie, lie, lie, as they
steal because THAT is the vermin they are.

I must invoke Taylor Swift on all FOX news articles!

We are never ever, ever getting back together
We are never ever, ever getting back together
You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me
But we are never ever, ever, ever getting back together
Like, ever

Considering there’s approx 535 members of Congress and we haven’t heard squat, I tend to believe this is a Fundraising effort.

The Rumor is that Swalwell told his wife he was undercover screwing his Chinese Spy mistress.

Why would anyone let him get away with claiming state secrets when he was banging her and she was bankrolling his Presidential bid?

He proposed that months ago. I guess calling for it again is his way of keeping it in the news.

*************

I doubt it. Nancy’s already on record she won’t run again. So, she cares less about what McCarthy or anyone else for that matter thinks.

Nancy Pelosi is a world class Liar.
She was one of those who helped The Kenyan become president.
You could even say she’s a Pro.

Yes, Eric has been sleeping with a Chinese Spy for years. He is a massive security risk

How about removal from office and removal from the USA instead?

They’d forget all about this if he’d just set them up on dates with his ex-girlfriend.
