House Republicans are disapproving of House Speaker Mike Johnsons decision to remove Rep. Mike Turner, Republican of Ohio, from his position as chairman of the House Intelligence Committee.
Many believe this move was motivated by Donald Trumps eagerness to install a MAGA loyalist in the position, since the president-elect has long sought to fill congressional seats with those willing to kiss the ring. Though Johnson denied external pressure, Turner believes otherwise.
In a phone interview with CBS reporter and Face the Nation host Margaret Brennan, Turner said that Johnson told him, Youre fired. There are concerns from Mar-a-Lago.
Johnson denied this claim.
