What's with Kevin McCarthy?

I just saw a short clip at the beginning of the Brian Williams Show on MSNBC, with Joy Williams as the guest host, and I could not believe my ears.

McCarthy was speaking when I came into the show and he was discussing the subpoenas and the requests for information from the Telecom Companies.

Then he said something to the effect that Democrats were making a big deal over nothing more than a difference of opinion? What Democrats say is an insurrection, McCarthy and many Republicans say it was a peaceful demonstration. That is what they want people to believe.

What do you think is a crime, anyway? Democrats believe one thing - Republicans believe another. We can't make a crime out of a difference of opinion.

What do you say to Kevin?

other RePugs tells me how INCREDIBLY ignorant the intended recipients of those statements are. I know the Deplorable base will NEVER join the rest of us to move this country forward.

It's going to be a LONG conversation.
I might even suggest packing a pillow and jammies. It will take all day and all night to tell Kevin all that is wrong with him.

Won't make any difference. Not the smallest.

what FG and his handlers have led them to. Overthrow the government! BUT hide that motive/action behind the backs of hundreds/thousands? of crazy, yet halfway normal trump schmucks who WERE peaceful on 1-6. Yes, there were people like that.

Auditioning for roles in the North American branch of the Russian mafia. Big lies, brazen lies, and threats to show Putie-Pute how loyal and despicable they are so they can have a better chance at a bigger role.

I think he is behaving like a man who thinks or knows that the more thorough the investigation, the closer it might come to discovering something for which he could well get indicted, convicted, and face serious jail time.

That might seriously interfere with his plans to become speaker--although with the current Republican double standard, they would probably let him run for speaker from his cell, and say that due to Covid-19, they are merely practicing social distancing, and he is working from "home."
