The civil war inside the MAGA Republicans in the House of Representatives continues. Donald Trump ordered MAGA Mike Johnson to fire the chair of the House Intelligence Committee, Mike Turner. Mike Turner was a fierce opponent of Vladimir Putin and Russia and a big supporter and proponent of Ukraine. Mike Turner also spoke his mind about the Russian propaganda
that infected many of the MAGA Republicans. So he has been fired from his position. He's been a member of Congress since 2003. Ohio's 3rd Congressional District became Ohio's 10th Congressional District in the Dayton area. area. That's his congressional district. CNN was the first to report it along with Punchbowl, rather. And here's what we learned.
House Speaker Mike Johnson is removing House GOP Representative Mike Turner as the chair of the House Intelligence Committee, a source familiar with the matter told CNN. Madhu Raju explained Jim Himes' Top Democrat, the ranking member on the House Intel Committee, just told a group of us that removing Turner, quote, of oversight and trying to protect our country from Russian propaganda.
That's why Donald Trump ordered MAGA Mike to get rid of Mike Turner. Again, someone who's had a very successful career, someone who's very qualified, someone who didn't bend the knee, although... You know, he spoke in favor of Donald Trump.
If you watched him before, you would see that he would still say things that are favorable to Donald Trump because he had to, but generally viewed as someone who was at least competent and qualified. So a bad sign that he is gone. We'll see who replaces him. As Melanie Zanona says, Trump was a big factor here. What we're actually hearing was Trump was the factor.
