McCarthy formally blocks Schiff, Swalwell from Intel panel

39. I have to believe that when you have known pipelines to our international enemies

serving in positions like this, the intelligence community has ways to deal with it.

Yeah, they are Members of Congress and the presumption is that they're entitled to see certain critical intelligence information. But that depends on the presumption that they are loyal to the nation. That presumption is invalid with the Republicans here.

Anyone who has read enough John LeCarré knows that you reveal turn-coat traitors by feeding them false information that's too juicy NOT to relay to your Russian handlers, and when that false information shows up in Moscow, you've identified your traitor.

Surely our intelligence experts have some way to detect then deflect the damage these insurrectionists can do and the betrayal they represent to the foundational principles of this country.

The Charles McGonigal arrest gives me some hope that our intelligence experts in the Executive branch are not going to go docile and meek before the current House of Representatives.
