It will be interesting to see if MTG really pulls the pin on that political grenade. Given her ongoing public statements, I’d wager yes. She seems eager to get folks on the record. If the Dems do save the speaker, that could set up quite a fascinating dynamic for the rest of the year. And given his tempered remarks on Fox News Sunday, the speaker has clearly learned from McCarthy’s fiery Face The Nation interview he gave the weekend prior to being voted out.

McCarthy was a really good communicator for the GOP - but he did not exercise good judgment on that Sunday, absolutely lying through his teeth about what had happened in the past few days in Congress. I think that interview doomed him, because Democrats looked at it and said - who needs that guy around?

That traitor did give an answer, as per Heather Cox Richardson:

“ In an astonishing exchange on Meet the Press this morning, Senator Tim Scott (R-SC), who is angling to become Trump’s vice presidential pick, refused six times to say he would accept the results of the 2024 election if Trump didn’t win. Host Kristen Welker asked: “Will you commit to accepting the election results of 2024?” Scott responded: “At the end of the day, the 47th president of the United States will be President Donald Trump.” Welker followed up: “Yes or no, will you accept the election results of 2024 no matter who wins?” Scott answered: “That is my statement.”

When Welker continued to push the question, Scott accused NBC of working for the “Democrat Party” but refused ever to agree to the peaceful transition of power”

He needs to be put on trial for breaking his oath.

So, whatever happened to those 40,000 hours of J6 recordings? Tucker, Johnson, fox… they all said they’d show it all.

I'm still spending a lot of time going through those videos. It's the same old story. Trump supporters attacking police, breaking down windows and doors to get into the building, and forcing lawmakers to flee. The GOP convinced their own supporters that the tapes would show something different (you know, Antifa), which is just nuts.
