House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) was caught red-handed after insisting that news from the New York Times that he’d told House members he would push then-President Donald Trump to resign after Jan. 6 was “totally false and wrong.”
MSNBC host Rachel Maddow had the reporters behind the news on her Thursday night show, where she played a recording of the conversation between McCarthy and then-House Republican Conference Chair Liz Cheney (R-WY).
“I think this will pass, and it would be my recommendation you should resign,” McCarthy said he planned to say to Trump of the impeachment effort.

There’s nothing worse than a dumb, corrupt, dimwitted, lying politician.
I can’t understand why major GOP pols don’t understand that there are currently so many media for recording speech. Also, most of them still don’t seem to understand that the only person who can lie with impunity is Mr. Trump: mere mortals face consequences. Perhaps GOP pols have become so accustomed to lying about all matters big and small that they have just become desensitized.
McCarthy is coming up with a new lie to cover the old lie. In the spin department. Deciding who to blame it on.
I think its more that they lie so often, they forget what they lied about and can’t keep their stories straight later.
Representative Cheney’s staff recorded and leaked the tape. Representative Cheney does not know whether staff gave it to the Times via Dropbox, email, or USB drive.
