Kevin McCarthy among GOP lawmakers whose phone records January 6 select committee asks to be preserved
(CNN)House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy is among a group of GOP lawmakers whose phone records are of interest to the select committee investigating the deadly January 6 riot on Capitol Hill, CNN has learned.
The committee asked a group of telecommunication companies to preserve phone records belonging to McCarthy, along with several other House Republicans, earlier this week.
On Monday, CNN first reported the existence of an evolving list of lawmakers whose phone records the committee wanted preserved. At the time of CNN's reporting, McCarthy's name had not been added to a draft version of the list, but by the time the document was finalized and sent to the telecommunications companies later that same day, it was included.
But since the final list was submitted on Monday afternoon, CNN has received information that McCarthy's name was, in fact, included along with several other lawmakers and hundreds of other individuals.

Maybe we thought that it had been confirmed somewhere though it's pretty obvious he would be on the list?
I can’t believe this!
just in case
It's his time in the barrel.
Parts of that phone call were made public weeks/months ago.
So where's the 'news'?
It was obvious from the way he's been losing his shit over January 6 being investigated! 
I agree with demmiblue.(see post 1)...a lot more to come...
if he can be charged with obstruction of Congress or justice for threatening the telecom companies about cooperating....?
