John Avlon: ‘Kevin McCarthy Is Once Again Choosing Trump Over the Truth’

EXCERPT:

AVLON (on camera): “Now we know what Republican House leaders will do when confronted with a domestic terror attack on our Capitol -- nothing. It's the most cynical and spineless act imaginable. It's the definition of putting party over country. Because opposing a bipartisan commission to investigate the insurrection on January sixth, Republican minority leader Kevin McCarthy is once again choosing Trump over the truth while carving out his profile and cowardice. But just a few days ago there seemed to be a deal -- a 10-person commission, five members appointed by each party, due to submit a report by the end of the year.”
