Turner voted AGAINST the censure of Adam Schiff, even though Turner KNEW Schiff lied about “Russian collusion”


We all know Schiff leaked classified information and perjured himself repeatedly.

Also (my opinion), I feel certain this a-hole is a pedophile.

He's that creepy actor from the children's theater that gets too close to the kids and makes everyone uncomfortable, then next thing you know his arrest report pops up on the news for molesting kids at the after school program where he volunteered.

democrats are mad.
quote:

Speaker Mike Johnson has removed Rep. Mike Turner as chair of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, according to three people familiar with the decision.

Conservative hard-liners in the House and other Republicans loyal to President-elect Donald Trump have been pressing Johnson for months to remove the Ohio Republican.

First named to lead committee Republicans in 2022 by then-Leader Kevin McCarthy, Turner has made many enemies over his handling of key intelligence matters, including a major internal battle over renewing certain surveillance authorities last year.


He has also been an outspoken advocate for Ukraine funding and other hawkish national security stances.

Still, the decision blindsided many members who remain loyal to Turner, including some current Intelligence panel members. Unlike most House panels, the selection of the Intel chairman is solely at the speaker’s discretion.

Johnson cited Trump as a reason for the ouster when the speaker met with Turner Wednesday night, according to a person familiar with the conversation who was granted anonymity to describe it.

Trump allies have raised concerns about Turner’s support for Ukraine aide and his role in the spy-powers chaos. Turner later told CBS News that Johnson pointed to “concerns from Mar-a-Lago” as the reason for the decision.

quote:

Connecticut Rep. Jim Himes, the top Democrat on the Intelligence panel, spoke to reporters shortly after the news broke. He had maintained a cordial relationship with Turner, who had pledged to undertake a bipartisan reset on the panel when ascending to the top Republican spot in 2022. His predecessor, Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.), was a fierce Trump loyalist who had continually clashed with then-Chair Adam Schiff (D-Calif.).

“I have ice in my spine right now, because that’ll totally change the dynamic of oversight,” Himes said of Turner’s removal. He added, “I’m sure that Mike lost some friends” over his role in preserving U.S. surveillance powers last year.
