Jeffries, the House minority leader, sent a letter to McCarthy on Saturday officially recommending the two California Democrats for spots on the committee, citing their"decades of distinguished leadership providing oversight" of the intelligence community and careers as prosecutors before serving in Congress.
But he noted McCarthy's intent to deny the seats to Schiff and Swalwell and said such a step would"break with the longstanding House tradition of deference to the minority party Intelligence Committee recommendations." "The denial of seats to duly elected members of the House Democratic Caucus runs counter to the serious and sober mission of the Intelligence Committee," Jeffries wrote in the letter, obtained by CBS News.
After the Democratic-led House voted during the last Congress to strip GOP Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and Paul Gosar of Arizona of their committee assignments, Republicans have vowed to do the same to Democrats, targeting Schiff, Swalwell and Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota.

How many people died of abortion today? Year 2020 = 620,327. 620,327/365 = 1700 babies per day. Is it any wonder why some people don't value life? Abortion sets the tone, devalues human life, teaches others not to care. You people supporting abortion are sick.
They don't belong on anything connected with intelligence

Jeffries taps Schiff, Swalwell for House intel after McCarthy promised to block themHouse Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries has selected Reps. Adam Schiff and Eric Swalwell to sit on the powerful House Intelligence Committee, setting up a fight with Speaker Kevin McCarthy over the assignments. I love this! Kevin won’t like it, he’ll get pushed for retribution for what happened w/ the Jan6 committee … Let them join, then add the biggest dolts the GOP has, and have the Chairman never schedule any meetings. Then start up a new Committee called the “Must Have Intelligence Committee” to do the real work.

White House Misled Reporters as DOJ Searched Biden's House for DocumentsWhite House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre misled reporters when she suggested President Biden was just visiting his beach home as usual. Why is anyone even attending her briefings? I ask sincerely? It’s just lies and propaganda from this position (either side of the political aisle). And it isn’t like being caught in a lie will result in anything. It’s a waste of time. Investigative journalism is the key. KJP cannot form an opinion on her own. If it’s not written down in her book of lies, she has no answer. No fan of PressSec, but I’m not seeing how she misled the corps. Biden went to the other house while Wilmington was searched.
