Dems dissed: Ilhan Omar, Adam Schiff, and Eric Swalwell confirmed to lose powerful positions
Washington Examiner ^ | January 10th, 2023 | Cami Mondeaux,

Several high-profile House Democrats are poised to be removed from their coveted committee assignments as Republicans take control of the lower chamber and usher in a new era of priorities, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) confirmed on Monday.

McCarthy has long vowed to remove some Democrats from their top positions in retaliation for the removal of some Republicans from their committee assignments in the last Congress, such as Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), who was stripped of all her committees in 2021. As part of his plans, the Republican leader has specifically targeted Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Adam Schiff (D-CA), and Eric Swalwell (D-CA).

McCarthy confirmed to the Associated Press on Monday that the three would be stripped of their assignments, with Omar being ousted from the Foreign Affairs Committee, while Schiff and Swalwell will be removed from the Intelligence Committee. The move is largely symbolic, as Swalwell is already due to be rotated off his committee, and Omar’s assignment is subject to a House vote that would likely be rejected by the GOP majority.

McCarthy first voiced the possibility of removing Democrats from their committee assignments in mid-November, shortly after Republicans won control of the House. He especially hit out against Swalwell and Schiff, accusing the two lawmakers of being untrustworthy.

And make it as public as humanly possible.

A 3 day event sounds about right and talk about it on the House floor incessantly.

You have no idea what it’s like to live in Schiff’s district and watch him win repeatedly in landslides.

He relies on the large illegal population out on the fringes, foreigners who automatically vote Democrat, vote harvesting, mail-in ballots and a large dose of vote fraud to overcome the more conservative areas of the district.

I’ll believe it when I see it. For the past umpteen years all we’ve had is talk talk talk talk talk from the RINO party. 6 months from now McCarthy will still be “confirming” what he’s going to do

Swalwell was already rotating out of his committee seat and Omar’s seat on the Foreign Affairs committee would require a majority vote which she won’t get now, so mainly this is about Schiff.

Sounds like AOC in my old neighborhood Elmhurst Queens NYC. Everybody I know there hates-her-freakin-guts yet she got 70% of the vote and the rumor is she is using illegals for votes. All you have to do to register is show proof of address like a phone bill, it’s ludicrous

Good. Maybe having them no longer on committees can help peel back what they’ve been up to.

Amazing that a woman. Can lie about her marriage, to,her brother no less, a woman who hates the nation and is system pathetic to Islamic nations over ours, can be awarded by being given a powerful position in government.

“You have no idea what it’s like to live in Schiff’s district and watch him win repeatedly in landslides.”

I’m not in her district, but we have the same problem with Sheila Jackson Lee. She will die or retire before she is ever voted out.

Living in Adam Kinzinger’s district and voted for him twice. He really pulled the wool over our eyes. I was outraged by him turning traitor on us. I think I have some idea how you feel.

Greg Gutfeld let him have it but good last night.

These three Demonicrats should be assigned the position of cleaning the Capitol building toilets with a toothbrush.
