Congressman Kevin McCarthy has a lot of explaining to do when it comes to his comments about President Donald J. Trump, Jan. 6, his denial of his comments and now the comments being released on tape.

With Republicans likely poised to regain control of the United States House of Representatives in November’s elections, Republicans running for Congress must be transparent in their plan to either support McCarthy for Speaker or support someone else.

We told you earlier about McCarthy’s situation. You can read about there here.

Now is the time to find out where Republicans running for re-election to Congress stand on McCarthy and whether he should be Speaker of the House if Republicans regain control.

With tomorrow’s district conventions on the horizon, it is the perfect time to ask Representatives Randy Feenstra, Ashley Hinson and Mariannette Miller-Meeks if they plan to support McCarthy for Speaker. And the same can be said of Zach Nunn, Nicole Hasso and Gary Leffler.

Former Congressman Steve King made clear his thoughts about McCarthy as news broke Friday morning of McCarthy’s audio:

“Never talk to Kevin McCarthy without a witness and a wire,” King wrote.

He also pointed out McCarthy’s first response to Jan. 6 was to “blame and attack Trump.”

Feenstra, Hinson and Miller-Meeks must address this — all of it. McCarthy’s initial quotes, his denial, now the tapes.

We will reach out to all three offices, but highly suggest others asking them tomorrow at the district conventions.

  1. Don’t forget, Grassley needs to be questioned about Mitch McConnell who also “allegedly” encouraged the J6 impeachment. https://resistthemainstream.org/report-alleges-what-mcconnell-had-to-say-about-son-of-a-btch-trump-during-second-impeachment-trial/

    It’s being denied of course, just like Kevin denied saying such for over 15 months until the recording came out.

    As well as Mitch giving Lisa Murkowski 7 million for her campaign and warning that We The Simple-minded should avoid unacceptable candidates… https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/04/mitch-mcconnell-warns-gop-voters-supporting-unacceptable-candidates/

  2. It’s definitely time to separate the RINOs from the Patriots in the GOP, the cowards from the spines. I’ve heard all the talk I can handle. Now it’s time to walk the walk.
