The Concern: The elimination of Reps. Ilhan Omar, Eric Swalwell and Adam Schiff from their committees.

In 2019, Rep. Kevin McCarthy eliminated Rep. Steve King from all committee assignments, because of his bigoted statements (“Omar’s despatched to the out Home,” Feb. 3).

The Home shouldn’t have needed to take away Rep. Ilhan Omar from a single committee for her bigotry, Rep. Nancy Pelosi ought to have accomplished so beforehand. This reality speaks volumes in regards to the Democratic Occasion’s tolerance of anti-Semitism and anti-Americanism.

I wasn’t proud of McCarthy being voted in as speaker. My opinion was that he’s a do-nothing RINO.

That stated, he’s doing what he promised: Reps. Adam Schiff, Eric Swalwell and Omar are actually off delicate committees.

The Democrats cry when what they do to others is completed to them.

Bravo, Mr. Speaker. Preserve proving me flawed and this nation will probably be in a greater place.

It’s merely superb to listen to the caterwauling after Omar, Schiff and Swalwell had been faraway from positions on committees the place the nation’s intelligence was being mentioned.

And even worse how the media is siding with the three faraway from their committees.

Rep. Omar, you haven’t misplaced your place on the Overseas Affairs Committee since you are an immigrant, born in Africa, a girl or a Muslim, as you declare.

It’s as a result of you’re a bigoted, indignant, venomous, hate-spewing, morally corrupt particular person now hiding beneath the guise of demure ignorance of your vile phrases.

That won’t work. We People aren’t as ignorant as you suppose we’re in case you consider that we purchase your story.

You stated what you actually consider and, fortunately, there have been sufficient individuals who suppose you aren’t worthy of the place that you simply held. You may have solely your self in charge. You aren’t a sufferer.

It was Democrats who compelled Roger Stone — a non-public citizen with no energy — to testify earlier than their committee a few flimsy hoax. They then accused him of mendacity and referred him for prosecution, hoping to ship him to jail for years.

But these two despicable liars, Schiff and Swalwell, suppose they shouldn’t endure any penalty in any respect, not even the lack of a seat on committee the place they repeatedly abused their positions. They’re completely shameless, and so are the individuals who defend them.

Omar is off the Overseas Affairs Committee. Nice!

Her egregious assertion “that some folks did one thing” when referring to the horrific occasions of 9/11 was totally loathsome.

Such an assertion alone disqualified her from sitting on such a committee, which offers with the nationwide safety pursuits of the USA. It was a despicable insult to the American folks.

However now she’s gone, and good riddance. And Schiff and Swalwell are off the Home Intelligence Committee.

This occurred by way of the concerted and patriotic efforts of McCarthy to revive a component of sanity and customary sense to this example.

Earl Beal

Terre Haute, Ind.

Omar is gone from the Overseas Affairs Committee, and the novel left in Congress is all atwitter.

There was a really legitimate purpose why she has been ousted. It was years of anti-Semitic feedback. Everybody within the Congress is aware of she’s an anti-Semite, and but radical liberals protected her.

Goodbye, ungrateful Ilhan, and possibly cease hating America and Israel. Now we have sufficient anti-Semitism rising on faculty campuses and don’t want extra from the likes of you and your Squad members in The Swamp.

JR Cummings

Manhattan

Strategy to go, McCarthy, for ousting Omar from the Overseas Affairs Committee.

Within the meantime Democrats cry “racist,” all of the whereas ignoring Omar’s anti-Semitic remarks.

Omar is nothing however a shame to our nation, and her swift boot is actually a “plop, plop, fizz, fizz” second.
