Kevin McCarthy’s Devil’s Bargain With Tucker Carlson For Jan. 6 Footage

A lot of things happened. Here are some of the things. This is TPM’s Morning Memo.

Even the NYT is speaking plainly about House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s devil’s bargain with Tucker Carlson for Jan. 6 security cam video: “In granting exclusive access to Jan. 6 Capitol surveillance footage to a cable news host bent on rewriting the history of the attack, the speaker effectively outsourced a politically toxic re-litigation of the riot.”

The worst part is that the Barely Speaker is fundraising from this stunt. Makes you wonder how the Capitol Police feel about this since it is going to make their job harder now, since the security of the Capitol and the people working or visiting inside are their responsibility.

Honestly, no one should be suprised any more at any of the offensive things coming out of his orange pie hole.

Did he throw paper towels at anyone during this visit?

Well, that’ll teach him.

This is just CYA from the other Republicans, who want to pretend that’s not standard GQP policy.

Since McCarthy just gave Tucker the location of every security camera in the Capitol building, the obvious solution is to change the location of every camera and then send the bill for that work to Fox News.
