She didn’t mince words. When asked on CNN about the recordings of Kevin McCarthy released this week by reporters from the New York Times, Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren laced into the House minority leader. The recordings revealed McCarthy lied when he said he would never called on Trump to resign after Jan. 6.
Here’s what’s on tape from McCarthy: “[T]he only discussion I would have with him is that I think this [impeachment resolution] will pass, and it would be my recommendation you should resign. I mean, that would be my take. But I don’t think he would take it. But I don’t know.”
“Kevin McCarthy is a liar and a traitor. This is outrageous. And that is really the illness that pervades the Republican leadership right now.”
