| Scumbag GOP Intel Chair Fired |
| 2025-01-16 |
| [Breitbart] Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has removed Rep. Mike Turner (R-OH) from the chairmanship of the House’s intelligence committee, reportedly due to concerns President-elect Donald Trump had about Turner. Johnson’s decision to remove Turner from atop the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI), first reported Wednesday by Punchbowl News, marks the first significant shakeup from Johnson in the new Congress. The Speaker has sole authority to appoint the chairmen of select committees, and although Johnson had delayed an official announcement on the committee’s leadership this Congress, his removal of Turner surprised most on Capitol Hill. Privacy advocates on both sides of the aisle have frequently criticized Turner for doing the bidding of the intelligence community. His fervency towards preserving Section 702 provisions of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act that enable intelligence agencies to spy on Americans without warrants particularly rankled Trump. Critics of 702 argue the provision empowers the Deep State beyond constitutional grounds. Turner was also one of the most vociferous proponents of foreign aid to Ukraine to fight its increasingly quixotic war against Russia. I don't know, divorce your wife, marry a moslem, get compromised, divorce moslem, lose job. Sounds about right.

| #1 Is she Moslem? She’s Lebanese-American, but most Lebanese-Americans who are not recent immigrants are actually Christian, not Moslem. They’ve been moving here since early in the last century — the pretentious poet Khalil Ghibran is one of a great many. |
