GOP already going after J6 committee before McCarthy wins the chairmanship.

Trump defender Kevin McCarthy tells January 6th Committee that evidence 'does not belong to you'


House Minority Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy in an angry letter to Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS) warned the Chairman of the U.S. House Select Committee on the January 6 Attack that his role will end on January 3 and it is “imperative that all information collected be preserved.” The California Republican congressman had a dramatically different position on Donald Trump‘s unlawful retention of well over ten thousand items from the White House, including at least 300 documents with classified markings, including some classified at the highest levels.

I'm thinking - spork.

He's astoundingly stupid and a coward.

Good luck serving as a lackey for Elise Stefanek when she is elected speaker.

With a possible 3 seat majority, 5 at most, it would take only 2 or 3 purple districts Rs to go counter and he has zero power.
This is an outgrowth of their stupid "mandate" philosophy.

And force McCarthy to cancel it

Then they should turn over all their research to the Senate.
