'It's disturbing to see that the Republican leader of the House ran — actually, literally refused to condemn that resolution of legitimate political discourse — literally ran away from the press when he was asked about his position,' Pelosi said.
"The Republicans seem to be having a limbo contest with themselves to see how low they can go," Pelosi said. "They seem to have reached rock bottom with their statement that what happened on Jan. 6 was normal political discourse — legitimate, legitimate political discourse."NBC News' Garrett Haake pressed McCarthy about the RNC's censure measure Wednesday.
McCarthy suggested that "legitimate discourse" referred to alternative electors whom the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol has subpoenaed, even though he said they were in Florida during the riot. While Kinzinger has said he's retiring from Congress, Cheney is, in fact, running for re-election this year and has outraised her chief primary opponent so far in the 2022 cycle. The Wyoming primary is in August.said that Jan. 6 was a "violent insurrection"“We all were here. We saw what happened," McConnell said at his weekly news conference.
"Yeah, I agree," McCarthy said. "Anyone who broke into this building, I mean, no one would disagree with that. But what I think, what I think you’re interpreting, is something much different. The RNC was not referring to that."
