A House Republican is calling for an inquiry into House Intelligence Chair Mike Turner (R-Ohio), saying his vague call to declassify a national security threat was done with “reckless disregard.”
Turner on Wednesday called on President Biden to declassify intelligence on a “serious national security threat,” writing that it was needed “so that Congress, the Administration, and our allies can openly discuss the actions necessary to respond to this threat.”
But Rep. Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.) on Thursday accused Turner of having ulterior motives, citing the battle over both funding for Ukraine and a bill to reauthorize the nation’s warrantless spy powers — each of which has raised some Republican opposition.
“This revelation by the chairman was done with a reckless disregard of the implications and consequences said information would have on geopolitics, domestic and foreign markets, and the well-being and psyche of the American people,” Ogles wrote in a letter first reported by Punchbowl.
“In hindsight, it has become clear that the intent was not to ensure the safety of our homeland and the American people, but rather to ensure additional funding for Ukraine and passage of an unreformed Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA.) This act constituted poor judgment at a minimum and a complete breach of trust influenced by the pursuit of a political agenda at the maximum.”

Right after you run Omar, Tlaib and Swalwell out of Congress.
And that’s just a start.
Why does that (D) after their name give them a pass?
I never posted anything about Santos. Try to not accuse someone of something that you have no proof of them doing.
I never went after Santos and I think he should have stayed for the reason that the other side replaced him and we lost that seat. He is a weirdo, but it wasn’t me calling for removal.
I also have no clue as to why you are picking on me about the RATs you listed. Where did I ever give them a pass? Please provide the receipts for your rude accusations about me.
As far as Turner goes I stand by what I said and also said nothing about replacing him. That said, maybe he will get voted out one of these days and I say good riddance to a bad neocon RINO.
I could’ve/should’ve made that more clear.
