Jeffries submits Schiff, Swalwell for Intel panel, forcing fight with McCarthy

[Gunny]

From the Dem POV, a good strategy. Forcing House Republicans to get it together or fold. That's kind of how it works when one displays an Achilles Heel before the enemy.

No house vote needed to keep Schiff and Swalwell off the committee. McCarthy can do that on his authority alone.

Will need a vote for Omar though.

I'm pretty sure the house GOP will vote to not place her on the committee.

I'm pretty sure the house GOP will vote to not place her on the committee.IMO the House needs to vote on investigating Omar (and others) for ethics. I realize the right likes to turn a blind eye to the left's ethics (like the left is Santos:rolleyes:), but there needs to be a line in the sand at least with anti-Americanism.

Simple fix if extremist Jeffries wants to use Santos as an example. Remove Santos from the committees. That doesn't look like much of a loss.
