House Intelligence Gets a MAGA Makeover

“Speaker Mike Johnson is remaking the House Intelligence Committee in Donald Trump’s image, a shakeup with immense implications as the president-elect returns to power,” Politico reports.

“The sea change on the panel is already triggering intense backlash from some Republicans on the committee and across the conference, who worry it’s a warning sign about the House’s willingness to stay independent of Trump. That’s to say nothing of Democrats, who fear the return of the partisan warfare that wracked the panel during Trump’s first term.”
