Republican Rep. Mike Turner of Ohio was unceremoniously ousted as chairman of the powerful House Intelligence Committee on Wednesday, after Donald Trump ordered the pro-Ukraine lawmaker's removal, according to CBS News' "Face the Nation" host Margaret Brennan.

Turner has been a vocal critic of Russia and a supporter of Ukraine. He's even criticized his own GOP colleagues for spreading Russian propaganda.

“We see, directly coming from Russia, attempts to mask communications that are anti-Ukraine and pro-Russia messages, some of which we even hear being uttered on the House floor,” Turner said in April.

Being pro-Ukraine is untenable for Trump, who is BFF with violent Russian dictator Vladimir Putin.

1. He is lying, the GOP is not falling for Russian propaganda and he knows it.

They are not innocent ignorant victims of Putin.

The GOP is knowingly aligning with Putin.

They want what Putin has, totally permanent power.
White male minority rule, and access to all national assets.

They deliberately sold out their country for money and power.
