public, too. so you know what, i ll represent his voters, too, and they ll serve on committees but not a place that has national security because integrity matters to me. kevin mccarthy whose integrity is locked safely in a safe in mar-a-lago. retribution for dear leader donald trump and his min ons. also tonight, a new lawsuit and new outrage over governor desantis rejection of ap american studies because for he and his administration, learning the truth about african american history lacks educational value. a florida high school student who wanted to take that ap course is now getting ready to sue desantis and he joins me tonight. plus, the ukrainian military gets a big upgrade as the biden administration agrees to supply them with top of the line battle tanks. what it all means for this nearly year long war. house speaker mccarthy is making good on his threat to block adam schiff and eric swalwell from seats on the house intelligence committee. but before i t ....
Big lie and the idea that somehow he would not do that on facebook when he s doing it on his own platform to me is a tragic decision by a company that s putting its profit above the public interest. they have said they believe the threat has passed, which seemed ludicrous. i have a final question to you, congressman schiff. we are actually out of time. i might have to have you guys come back, but i want to ask you quickly because you had been critical earlier of the department of justice s seeming reluctance to take action. given the fact that you now have essentially a trump committee on the, essentially running the house again, through his supporters like greene and mccarthy, do you think that that puts more pressure on should put more pressure on the department of justice to take action because obviously the threat is still live. well, i don t think the committee itself is a reason for the justice department to act or not. they have plenty of reason to act based on the pure evid ....
Did anything questionable and notes there is simply no evidence he did anything wrong despite mccarthy s unverified claims in a classified briefing suggested otherwise. there s also this inconvenient reality. two other republican speakers, john boehner and paul ryan, who would have been briefed on the fbi investigation into the woman in question in 2015, did not try to remove swalwell from this same committee. mccarthy can keep members off unilaterally. he also continues to threaten to strip omar from the house foreign affairs committee, but that would require a house vote. in a press conference today, the three members stood together saying it wasn t about any individual committee but the speaker openly using his authority for retribution. joining me now, eric schiff and eric swalwell both of california. congressman schiff, i want to start with you because in a way, i feel like you in kevin ....
Just proves that how as payback, he s blocking schiff and swalwell, but to be clear, it s also retribution on behalf of mccarthy s other boss, donald trump. he claims he lied about triggering the whistleblower even though the source said the whistleblower had not met or spoken with schiff and everything in the complaint was ultimately corroborated in the investigation. as for swalwel, a 2020 axios story about a chinese spy who had fund raised for him as a bundler in 2014. swalwell cut off ties after being alerted by federal investigators. a washington post fact check points out that the axios report that started the fever dream itself never alleges swalwell ....
Administration agrees to supply them with top of the line battle tanks. what it all means for this nearly year long war. house speaker mccarthy is making good on his threat to block adam schiff and eric swalwell from seats on the house intelligence committee. but before i tell you his rationale, i want to remind you exactly what mccarthy s boss, marjorie taylor greene, did to get expelled from her committee assignments two years ago. in 2018, a post which read quote, a bullet to the head would be quicker than removing then speaker nancy pelosi. which sure made her seem like a danger to the speaker. and if that wasn t enough, a 2020 congressional campaign facebook post showed her posing with a military style rifle alongside photos of ....
