John, today marks two years since the attack on the Capitol.

Two years since the Republican party spent but a few hours condemning the
actions of Trump supporters, to then immediately turn against the facts,
peddle conspiracy theories, and even excuse the actions of the former
President and the rioters.
One of the main actors in this has been Kevin McCarthy, who has repeatedly
shown himself to be a supporter of Trump regardless of the damage it has
inflicted on the country.
According to a Hill story published last year, as more conversations on
January 6^th were divulged, McCarthy expressed concerns that the rioters
had come to “kill” him.
McCarthy initially gave a speech on the floor following January 6^th
signaling he believed Trump had responsibility on that day, but later
distanced himself from those comments and then disregarded them
altogether.
Kevin McCarthy has spoken out against the January 6^th Select Committee,
often referring to his perceived notion of republican censorship on the
Committee, however, three of the five picks McCarthy selected were
accepted by Speaker Pelosi. He also rejected a proposal for a bipartisan
commission on the matter, cementing his disdain for the process.
He also pledged, with his role as speaker, to give Marjorie Taylor Greene
her assignments back as part of a deal to have more MAGA Republicans on
his side for his bid. However, as of the writing of this report, several
members of those identifying as MAGA have continually nominated others on
the floor and voted against McCarthy.
Kevin McCarthy’s aspirations for Speaker exist in a selfish and desperate
attempt to retain power which was highlighted Wednesday by Trump’s post on
Truth Social to call on Republicans to vote for McCarthy.
Kevin McCarthy has always put his desire for power over the American
people.
And now, as his power is threatened, he stands by the same actions and
beliefs of the MAGA Republicans, while they in turn vote him down.
Kevin McCarthy made this bed, and now he is writhing in it.

John, we will not forget who enabled, abetted, and created the
environment for the MAGA GOP to attempt a coup and destroy our Democracy.
Thanks for joining us in the fight,
