Rep. Aguilar: ’Kevin McCarthy Is Trying To Whitewash the Insurrection’

‘What is he trying to hide?’

EXCERPT:

BERMAN: "I want to talk about the January 6th commission. House Republican leadership is now telling its membership to vote against this commission after their man negotiated a deal on their terms. How surprised are you?"
AGUILAR: "Well, it’s -- it's tough to be surprised when House Republican leadership gets involved here, but I think it’s very clear that the Republican leadership, specifically Kevin McCarthy, is trying to whitewash the deadly insurrection that happened on January 6th. And so I think it begs the question, you know, what is he trying to hide and why doesn't he want to get to the truth? That's all we're focused on here. That's all the commission would be focused on. And it's just unfortunate that House Republican leadership is weighing in on what has become a bipartisan bill and what will be a bipartisan bill when we vote today."
