Kevin McCarthy

When you have got an attorney general that has a history of going after parents because they go to a school board meeting, but not to talk to the American public, that creates real problems.

I`ve seen enough. The Department of Justice has reached an intolerable state of weaponized politicization. When Republicans take back the House, we will conduct immediate oversight of this department, follow the facts and leave no stone…

to make that ugly threat that he has against a sitting attorney general, Merrick Garland, saying, hope you have got your calendar clear, essentially, as Donald Trump might have put it, you`re going to go through some things, that`s…

I asked him personally today, does he hold responsibility for what happened? Does he feel bad about what happened? He told me that he does have some responsibility for what happened. And he`d need to acknowledge that.

He told me he does have some responsibility for what happened. And he needs to acknowledge that.

The violence, destruction, and chaos we saw earlier was unacceptable, undemocratic, and un-American. It was the saddest day I’ve ever had is serving as a member of this institution.

The President bears responsibility for Wednesday’s attack on Congress by mob rioters. He should have immediately denounced the mob when he saw what was unfolding.

No, they're your people. They literally just came through my office windows, and my staff are running for cover.

It’s only the majority who has subpoena power. They would never allow Republicans into those meetings.

The only discussions I would have with him is that I think this will pass, and it would be my recommendation he should resign.

This is just a continuation. They're obsessed with Trump and this is all they want to do. But this hearsay would never be allowed in the court of law.
