Swalwell shouldn't be "seated" anywhere, but especially not "intelligence".

If there's going to be a two tiered DOJ
There needs to be two countries

[deonka]

Getting rid of corruption is also in the interest of Americans

[andybrophy]

He is either completely delusional or a completely disingenuous, compulsive liar. It can only be one of these two. Waving his hands around incessantly? Fooling nobody.

[GrafVonTirol]

"Threat"? He made good on it! Play stupid games...

[margretrodgers]

Your excused Hakeem. Your service is no later anger needed.

[kurt]

1:30 yet the unselect committee wasted all those funds doing just that! Stupid is as, you know the thing

[anthonywicks]

When will that begin Americans been waiting for years

[pbrooks]

Who care what he says. He’s irrelevant.

[rogerlombardo]

I don’t know why Adam Schiff did not answer the situation with Congressman Omar. It was proven through DNA that she did marry her brother United States law says it anybody foreign or American the penalty is five years and up to $250, 000 fine that was her second husband she committed a crime to make him a citizen in this country. He is now in prison, a lot of the material has been lifted from the Internet but Adam needs to be asked about that as well and Eric why these people were on any committee, so leave George alone for right now until those two questions are answered

[Bob-wvty]

What's good for the goose is good for the gander

[tonyf]

Simple question why weren't Republicans asked to be on any of the committee's, ???

[tinfoilhatnews]

Dude did not meet with anyone outside his bubble. Jeffreis is a liar

[johng]

Love how the ones who shout the loudest about "Democracy" are the first to complain when "Democracy" happens. The majority party puts their people in committees. That is the Democracy they want so badly.

[JamesW]

I am glad to see these bums removed. Remember who started this process for committee removal. Sucks when the shoe is on the other foot. Calling people maga republicans is not the insult he wishes it to be. We should always strive to make our nation great.

[ld]

is a really nasty word that most women would take maximum offfense to. That's the display I just heard

[elleryweir]

Our country is in the turmoil that it's in because of people like Jeffries and weak Democratic party that just goes with whatever they want to do for themselves and not for what's good for this country we need a phone amount of government

[michaeljones]

They shouldn't be in control at all read the 14 amendment we the people might learn something.

[burnerjack]

Swalwell: "It's political vengeance I tell you! Me dating and probability of passing on secrets to a modern day Mata Hari Chinese Spy is no reason I shouldn't be trusted!"

[rogerlombardo]

Jeffrey, that’s absolutely a falsehood. I talk to people every day because we can automatically tell by the separation caused by the last few years in politics who is a Republican and who’s a Democrat people leave and fist bump each other when they know they’re the same so when you talk about no division in this country, they’re not talking about it they’re not talking to you about it because they know it’s landing on daddy eaters, but I have relatives all across the country on both sides of the political party and there’s never lack of conversation
