Wednesday, during an appearance on FNC’s “Jesse Watters Primetime,” House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) vowed to remove Reps. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and Eric Swalwell (D-CA) from the House Intelligence Committee.
McCarthy, who is poised to be the next House Speaker if Republican win control of Congress after this year’s midterms, was critical of Schiff’s role on the House Select Committee investigating the January 6, 2021 Capitol Hill riot.
“I’ll promise you this — when I’m speaker, [Schiff] will not be on the Intel Committee anymore,” McCarthy said. “And you know what else, Swalwell won’t either."

I don’t care what you pledge. Come January, you won’t be leader of the house GOP.

McCarthy did both the Gutfeld show and Jesse Watters. He actually sounded sane with Greg and Kat joking with him.

I hope he will kick anyone on that Witch Hunt committee off EVERY House Committee as well as Omar & Tlaib. Also the GOP should put a rule that gives the Speaker the ability to reject any nomination for committee assignments from the Minority Leader.
At least for the first year. It's time to play hardball and show that we can play it as well.

Sorry #1, but if the GOPe wins the majority, McCarthy will be Speaker. The GOPe isn't going to bounce him from leadership any more than they did Paul Ryan, not even for FPDT. I anticipate a unanimous Republican vote in favor of McCarthy regardless.

A good thing to say.
I still don't trust McCarthy.

ANY Republican Speaker would do that. A RINO like McCarthy says it and it's news. That's reason enough to not ever let him have that position again.

Doesn't go nearly far enough. Both, along with several others, need to be expelled from Congress.

Kevin McCarthy has a long record. Just like his mentors Ryan and Boehner before him, Kevin going out on shows to say certain things to show us how great he will be as SOTH. If the House Freedom Caucus were worth a warm bucket of spit, they would at least try to get a MAGA man in that slot. They won’t and all the conservative Republicans will get a pass for voting yet again for a swamp critter as SOTH.

Even if McCarthy does honor that pledge it doesn't go far enough. Schiff and Swallwell should be removed from any committee, just as Pelosi did to Margery Taylor Green. He must also remove Maxine Waters from any committee. Her behavior for decades should have gotten her removed from the House.
I won't hold my breath that McCarthy will follow through on even this limp pledge. The Republicans will not get anything done under its current congressional leadership.

I'm expecting a LOT more than simply removing them from Intelligence committee.
Full-blown investigations, particularly on Schiff.

Schiff, Pelosi, and the other guy should go to prison, at the very least.

If McCarthy becomes Speaker, look for the Dems to reclaim the House in two years.

The GOPe/RINOs will do NOTHING
They paint themselves as conservatives to get elected and the shapeshift into RINOcrats. McCarthy is from California and definitely NOT a conservative.
We haven't had a good Speaker since Mr. Newt.
