Swalwell I can see, but telling the Democrats they can't nominate Schiff probably isn't going to go over well.

Historically each party has allowed the other to nominate their own to committee seats. Curious to see if McCarthy would break longstanding tradition on this. It could have pretty nasty repercussions if it gets weaponized.

Did you wake up yesterday? Nancy kicked MTG and other Republicans off committees in the last congress. Democrats broke longstanding tradition first so what goes around, comes around

You know better than posting a pragmatic analysis here.

That ship sailed when Pelosi excluded people like Jordan from the Jan 6 committee. Just like Harry Reid, she didn’t worry about the long term repercussions.

Nah, frick all that. After the damage Pelosi has done as speaker and letting her minions run roughshod along the way? The next speaker should go nuclear. I don't trust McCarthy to do it. Seeing is believing if those two turds are left off the house intel committee.

Good grief. Try to keep up here. Pelosi is the Speaker who broke long standing tradition on this. Remember when she barred MTG? Pelosi weaponized this whole thing with barring MTG and refusing to allow the Republicans to appoint their chosen members to the Jan. 6 committee. You Democrats are such lying and deceitful people that you are a curse on our country.
