Rep. Mike Johnson has been appointed as the new chairman of the House Intelligence Committee following a controversy that began with a warning about Russian space nuclear technology, a source close to the matter told Planet Chronicle Digital.
Johnson felt unhappy with Turner after he unexpectedly warned about the need to declassify information about Russian anti-satellite technology.
Turner, a hawk by nature, sometimes clashed with the Trumpist wing of the Republican Party over issues such as his support for Ukraine aid and Section 702 of FISA.
