The Republican party, spearheaded by leader Kevin McCarthy, is politically opposed to the creation of a commission that would investigate the insurrection that occurred at the Capitol on Jan. 6. The commission bill is set for a House vote. MSNBC’s Ari Melber reports on what McCarthy’s hypocrisy reveals about the state of the GOP.

Deny the truth your eyes tell you. Thats what makes a good Trump republican these days. The grand old Scoff-Law and Disorder party.
Flip Flopping Kevin McCarthy is doing what Flip Flopping Kevin McCarthy always does.
When history talks about McCarthyism, there’s going to need to be a footnote now so that historians will know which one they’re referring to.
Did the Trump administration plan a coup d’ e’tat? Is that why military assistance for Capitol Police was delayed for hours? Is that why Republicans are minimizing the Jan. 6th insurrection? Is that why Republicans are stopping an independent investigation? Are there Republican TRAITORS doing Vladimir Putin’s dirty work?
What a disgusting person McCarthy is. If he doesn’t believe in the American system of government, perhaps he should go home and do something that might make him useful. If you can’t uphold your oath of office – don’t go there.
History will not be kind to Trump, his family and his supporters.
Mccarthy is a traitor and the entire GOP now serving are working for Russia. They willingly continue to spread Russian propganda to break up the country for their greedy power. The Gop doesn’t care one bit about our nation. They are comitting treason by deny a domestic terror attack and must be removed from office and tried for their lies harming the nation. How stupid. Do they think people are stupid; the entire world saw the attack
DO THE Commission! DO THE Commission!
Please stop calling Republicans “GOP.” They’re really not.
The GQP is scared to death of the truth coming out.
Why do they bother to negotiate, so they can keep stringing Democrats along and then abuse them again, KIND OF EXACTLY LIKE AN ABUSIVEAN BEATING THE CRAP OUT OF HIS WIFE AND THEN SAYING SOREY TO HER BROKEN FACE THE NEXT DAY.
Truth is no longer the word among Trumpicans,.
These were the Jokers who were going to drain the swamp. Now we are going to have to drain this huge septic tank that is the Republican party. They will bring down the country just to save their jobs.
We need commission now!!
Only the republicans the good news is that they all live in AMERICA
I suggest an investigation into Kevin McCarthy … that should be interesting.
Remember Benghazi?
They used 2 years on a case which was a nothingburger. Because they meant that HRC had some to do with it indirectly.
The only thing they discovered was that near all republicans did sign the bill that defunded security at embassies.
HRC never encouraged the islamists to storm it.. Trump never did anything to slow down his followers.
I can’t wait to find out how many in the Republican Party actually help plan the insurrection.
of course the GOP wants all probes stopped as they will show that most of them are traitors to the country and are trying to destroy democracy and the constitution…
He’s a traitor by serving a traitors wishes. The fact that he’s willing to compromise his integrity for traitor Trump proves he no longer considers his constutional oath binding. The first steps of a coup are being made by perpetuating a lie and undermining honest and purposeful government.
No surprise here. He is afraid he may have to testify under oath, where he cannot change his story every other day. What a snake.
MAKE A NOTE –YOU FOOLS ……NOT ONE OF THOSE SO CALLED RIOTERS WAS ARMED ! YOU PEOPLE ARE A JOKE ! CALLING THAT A RIOT ……..NEXT TIME IT WILL BE A RIOT !
Modern day McCarthyism. 50s all over again.
Cant the DOJ get involved and investigate January 06 2021?
