House Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) formally asked Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) this weekend to seat Reps. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and Eric Swalwell (D-CA) on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.

Jeffries requested in a letter shared by Punchbowl News that McCarthy “honor past practice” and accept Jeffries’ recommendations of Schiff and Swalwell to the committee. “It is my understanding that you intend to break with the longstanding House tradition of deference to the minority party Intelligence Committee recommendations and deny seats to Ranking Member Schiff and Representative Swalwell,” Jeffries wrote. “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.”

Tell Jeffries to go pound sand

No Jeffries.
It’s the Republican show now.

[ealgeone]

as gift has shown he doesn’t have the intelligence to be on the intelligence committee. or any other committee for that matter.

[ClearCase_guy]

Elections have consequences.

[sjmjax]

Republicans should demand he produce a copy of the letter he wrote to Nancy Pelosi when republicans were targeted.

And if he can’t, tell Jeffries to take his letter and shove it up......

[for-q-clinton]

the past practice is to kick off those you don’t approve of. The new Pelosi standard.

Since when do the Rats give a damned about Honor?Are these the same Rats that refused the Republican Minority leader to put who he wished on the B.S. January 6 committee?

I’ll say this much for the Rats they really have balls.

"...serious and sober mission of the Intelligence Committee."

Oh, puh-leaze! Swalwell was boinking a COMMUNIST SPY and he was on the committee.

[NorthMountain]

“Fang Fang” Swallwell’s presence on the “Intelligence” committee would constitute a clear and present danger to national Security. Likewise, “Russia Collusion” Schiff cannot be placed in such a position.

McCarthy to Jeffries: KMA

[Vision]

Democrats have no honor. Then they whine about it when out of power. Which in itself is dishonorable.

[Robert DeLong]

Tell Hakeem to stick where the sun don’t shine and to rotate it long & hard.

[ConservativeInPA]

Almost my exact words.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Tell Jeffries, who trashed Republicans during his lil speech, to kiss my white ass

[G Larry]

No Hakeem, you lost! Sit down!

[Paladin2]

Past practice is to kick select ‘critters off of committees.
