, but yet another mast shooting is a quick round up of some other headlines. oklahoma governor kevin, steve has signed a bill making it illegal to perform abortions except in medical emergencies. those who do could be in prison for up to 10 years. this is the latest in a string of measures that limit abortion access across the u. s. dozens of people have died in floods and mud slides after days of heavy rain in and around the south african city of durban. local authorities expect the death told to rise us comedian and voice actor gilbert gottfried has died after a long illness, according to his family. the former cast member of the show saturday night live was also known as the voice of the parish in the animated film. aladdin gottfried was 67 from. uh, that's it for me. business news. his next. ah, we got some hot tips for your bucket list. romantic corner tread hotspot for food chair and some great cultural memorials to boot w travel off. we go oh hello guys.

the other thing of note in that conversation, kevin mccarthy was speaking to steve scalise. have liked to have seen steve scalise speak out a whole hell of a lot more after january 6th being that like myself, he's also a victim of political violence and again, gop leadership possession and we just didn't see that. >> tim, your reaction? >> he said it better than i could and as an actual victim i think it's important that he's listened to. remember, this is how despicable these people are, that the mccarthys of the world, they now are -- are running cover for the types of people that called, you know, officer fanone a crisis actor. that's what the margely taylor greenes of the world were doing and all of these people who were insulting and mocking the officers who were there to protect them and who were injured. some of them have later taken their own lives and those people are being degreated and insulted by fellow members of their caucus and a few weeks after all of that happened and the people who were supposed to be lead e the guy that wants to be the speaker of the house

this cannot go unaddressed and that's why i'm calling on house leadership, kevin mccarthy, steve scalisejoin me in efforts to defund this program or any programs that would seek to police speech but they should join my call to impeach secretary mayorkas. >> laura: we will be following up on your call to legislative action. our next guest couldn't help but notice the parallel between this dystopian vision of the ministry of truth board at dhs and other governmental instruments used by the ccp. he joins me now, stephen moser, president of the population research institute. i believe you go as far as to say this one act at the department of homeland security, you fear for the future of our country because of this, explain. >> this is what happens in communist china. communist china not just takes down the posts of dissidents and blocks them from twitter, thought crime is punishable by law and imprisonment and it happens all the time. i'm afraid people on our side of the pacific are now looking to china for guidance in how to control their population. china as we see from shanghai, as we see

steve: exactly right. we are with you every step of the way. where can people go to support your campaign? >> join our citizens movement go to elect kevinhank you. >> steve: stay with us. much more up ahead. on travel d through chase with chase freedom unlimited. i earn 5% on our cabin. hello cashback! hello, kevin hart! earn big time with chase freedom unlimited with no annual fee. how do you cashback? chase. make more of what's yours. mission control, we are go for launch. um, she's eating the rocket. ♪♪ lunchables! built to be eaten. >> tech: does your windshield have a crack? trust safelite. >> tech vo: this customer had auto glass damage, but he was busy working from home... ...so he scheduled with safelite in just a few clicks. we came to his house... ...then we got to work. we replaced his windshield and installed new wipers to protect his new glass, while he finished his meeting. let safelite come to you. >> man: looks great. thank you. >> tech: my pleasure. that's service on your time. schedule now. >> singers: ♪ safelite repair, safelite replace. ♪ trelegy for copd. ♪ birds flyin' high ♪ ♪ you know how i feel ♪ (coughing) ♪ br

we have 50 house republicans led by kevin mccarthy, steve scalise.d this too, sending a letter to homeland security secretary alejandro mayorkas saying you're violating court orders on this. you're unfit for office. you should step down. did you agree with this letter? did you sign it? >> yes, i did. i will be questioning secretary mayorkas on wednesday. he knows better. he was secretary, deputy secretary under jeh johnson who by the way said title 42 should not be lifted during the surge and he said a thousand days would be a bad day in office. we're looking 18,000 a day. 500,000 in five weeks after title 42 is lifted. to your point, liz, most importantly, on day one they rescinded the migrant protection protocols, remain in mexico which were working. i worked with the trump administration to implement this. that actually did secure our border. elizabeth: now you have people drowning including a national guardsmen in the rio grande, while people pass. congressman mccaul, thanks for joining us. we'll have you on again soon. thanks for your insights t

what are you, taylor lorenz now, steve scalise customer and what is this? in another report kevinid twitter should continue to sense of republicans, pull them off the internet. he made that remark in response to which we he didn't like from alabama republican congressman gary moore who was justifiably outraged by the death of ashley babbitt. listen. >> twitted at marjorie green at all, i understand it was a black lease officer who shot the white female veteran, that doesn't fit the narrative. >> man. because this is what we have to confront this. >> can't they take their twitter accounts away too? >> tucker: that didn't turn out to be completely true but truth is no defense. if you irritate "the new york times" kevin mccarthy would like you pulled off the internet. this is the leader of the republican party. there are a lot like this. in another he said he wished donald trump would resign. fox asked mccarthy about that. watch the response. >> with house republican leadership, we heard on that audio that you had quote, had enough with president trump and you would tell him to his f

kevin mccarthy stabbed himself in the become by putting all this back in the tube, something steve scalisedn't do anything. i want to ask the control room if we can apply the tape we have again. i just -- i think now we understand a little bit better from all of you and especially from you, jake. this is kevin mccarthy talking with leadership, which includes steve scalise, which says something remarkable about illegality on the part of matt gaetz and liz cheney, the one-time number two. let's listen to the tape again. >> the other thing that we have to do is these numbers on either -- whatever position you're on, calling out other members, that's got to stop, especially this nature. i'm going call gaetz. don't assume i see everything, don't assume i know everything. we've got to have one central point, so if you can bring this thing to -- so we'll have it. it's going to be -- tension is too high. the country is too crazy. i do not want to look back and think we caused something or missed something and someone got hurt. i don't want to play politics with any of that. >> i don't want to play

this could not go unaddressed and that's why i'm calling on house leadership kevin mccarthy, steve scalisend others to not only join me in efforts to defund this program or any program that would seek to police the beach, but they should join to impeach secretary mayorkas. congressman. we got to go. impeach thank you so much.yo and we'll be following up on your call for this legislative action. all right. our next guest couldn't help but notice the parallels between this dystopian vision of the ministry of truth board s at dhs and other governmental instruments used o by the ccp. he joins me now. steven mosher, president of the populationow research institute, author of bully of asia. stephen , so i believe you go as far as to say that this one act at the department oft homeland security that they say, oh , tho trump had somethig like this and this is not a big idea. big deal . but you fear for the future of our country because of this . >> explain. well, i do because this ismm what happens in communist china. my goodness. ccommunist china not just takes down the posts of dissidents and bl

we are going to talk about -- like kevin -- what did donald call him? >> steve. i think he still thinks he is steve. >> yeah, steve, steve mccarthy, the former future speaker of the house. he -- 2016, remember all of the republican leaders were together and he said that donald trump was on the payroll of vladimir putin. >> yes. >> and he said, swear to god, guys, swear to god, i think he is. they denied that. kevin denied that. was shown a transcript of that. he said it was fake news. then they played him the tape. >> right. >> and it is the same thing. like again, willie, these people, donald trump, mike, kevin, steve, whatever his name is, and it seems about half of the republicans in congress, it is like they think that videotape has not been created yet, that like cassette tapes are just around the corner, but nobody can actually record their spoken words, and they just keep lying. >> how about that picture we're looking at right now? it is another example. he said, according to the book and according to burns and martin in the new book, that he was annoyed t

trump ally matt gaetz blasting kevin mccarthy and steve scalise, saying they are not fit for leadershipupposedly apologizing yesterday for the trouble that has come. yet, they gave kevin mccarthy a standing ovation, sealing him -- his road to speakerdom if that's what the voters decide. >> it looks like mccarthy survived this for the moment. one thing to keep in mind is the overall power dynamic. that rests with former president trump. trump is standing by mccarthy for now. trump knows that if he ever wanted to get rid of kevin mccarthy, all he would have to do is blow the whistle and so many house republicans would break with mccarthy and follow trump. the power is really with former president trump. the republicans on the hill know this. they gave mccarthy the standing ovation because he is their leader. he is trying to lead them to the majority in the november midterm elections. but he at this point is sort of a pawn to trump because he serves as the pleasure of the former president effectively given the power dynamics in the republican party today. >> they all know he lid publically

taylor lorenz now steve scalise, what is this yet another recording? kevin mccarthy suggests that twitter should continue to censor republicans, pull them off the internet. now he made that remark in response to a tweet he didn't like from alabama republican congressman barry moore who was justifiably outraged by the death of ashley babbette. >> listen to tweeted at marjorie green that they were wrong. i understand it was a black police officers that had shot the white female veteran. you know, that doesn't fit the narrative they this is what we're we have to confront them. can't they take into account the racist? well, actually that claim turned out to be completely true . but truth is no defense. if you irritate the new york times, kevin mccarthy would like you pulled off the you know, this is the leader of republicans in the house of representatives. a lot of tapes like this on another tape, mccarthy says he wished donald trump would resign probably the least of his sins. fox's bill malegaon asked mccarthy about that . watch the response. it's amazing gro

by the way with kevin mccarthy and steve scalise said there were spot on about the reckless incendiarycult time in our nation's history. so they were right. and look, i've always said this. kevin mccarthy will never be able to outflank the far right of the party. there's always going to be somebody out there, tucker carlson or some group, always going to be the right of him. frankly, that's their business model. they want to go out there and say they're the vanguard of the conservative movement or liberal movement. and that's what they do. i think it's a mistake to try to placate too many of those elements and then you'll see control to them. and if he becomes speaker that element is going to then basically try to hold the whole conference hostage. i think it's better like i say don't feed the crocodiles because they'll eat you sooner or later. >> it's interesting he's comparing it to liberal college professor or msnbc staffer because as you said what kevin mccarthy was saying is actually the right thing. so is he saying that a college professor or msnbc staffer is someone who's acting

traditional republican, and in those moments around january 6th some of these people, like kevin mccarthy, like steveere kind of scared back into their old selves. >> yeah. >> and that only lasted for a short period of time, but it just -- i think all of this seems to demonstrate that all of these politicians, because this is what they know how to do as politicians, this he know how to -- how to become the thing that they need to become in order to maintain power and that is what is going on here. mccarthy understood the politics was different from how he felt in those moments of fear on the hill a few days later and he changed his tune very, very quickly because he knew that's the only way he would survive. >> to borrow your analogy they weren't brain transplant patients, they were pretending to be brain transplant patients. let's listen to a little more of the sound. >> so i'm calling gaetz, i'm explaining to him -- i don't know what i'm going to say but i'm going to have some other people call him, too. but the nature of what -- if i am getting a briefing, i'm going to get another one from the fbi

outspoken member of the conference who is disappointed, at least, with what they heard from kevin mccarthy and steve gop whip. let's listen to first the exchange between the leaders in january about some comments that congressman gaetz made about then leader liz cheney. let's play it. >> i'm calling gaetz, i'm explaining to him, i don't ever say that i'm going to have some other people call him took into consideration the nature of what -- if i'm getting a briefing, i'm going to get another one from the fbi tomorrow. this is serious [ bleep ], to cut this out. >> that's potentially illegal what he's doing. >> well, he's putting people in jeopardy. >> gaetz tweeted out that the comments on this call are the behavior of men of weak men, not leaders. that was out in a statement on twitter. also some sources in this conference said that there was a testy exchange between scalise and gaetz, how big of a problem is this for the two and that goal of being speaker, if republicans win control. >> well, listen, gaetz, probably won't vote for for kevin mccarthy should the house gop get the majority and kevin m

reported and as you just heard, he got a standing ovation and members left a united front on kevin mccarthy but for steve scalise, he did get into what one person in the room described as a very direct and heated exchange with congressman matt gaetz over another audio recording that became public. this one over comments that scalise made that some of the comments that gaetz was making after january 6th could have been illegal for what he was saying about other republican lawmakers. scalise and gaetz had it out in the room and then they also met one-on-one i actually just in the last few minutes spoke with whip scalise about this here's what he says he spoke with gaetz about when they met privately. listen. >> you know, ultimately, you know, the concerns i had that there were members getting death threats and that was something that i surely wanted to be vocal at pushing back on, but he and i talked about that. >> look, this morning, shep, when they had that house conference meeting, marjorie taylor greene said that scalise should apologize to gaetz. that's not something that happened in the room when i w

steve patterson, nbc news >>> republican leader kevin mccarthy is speaking out, now saying he never said former president trump should resign after last year's capitol attacks. the denial comes just days after audio tape of mccarthy talking about then-president trump was leaked vaughn hillyard has more >> reporter: republican leader kevin mccarthy speaking for the first time >> what they said we did, we never did it >> reporter: and denying he ever asked president trump to resign >> let me be very clear. i have never asked president trump to resign >> reporter: but audio recordings seem to suggest he was ready to do so here's the gop's top leader in the house speaking privately just days after the january 6th attacks. >> i think this will pass, and it would be my recommendation he should be gone >> reporter: mccarthy, in that leaked phone call, indicating he was ready to leave trump behind >> i've had it with this guy what he did is unacceptable nobody can defend that and nobody should defend it. >> reporter: but last night -- >> i've never asked the president to resign i never thought h

and the other thing of note, though, in that conversation, kevin mccarthy was speaking with steve scalisese speak out a whole hell of a lot more after january 6th being that, you know, like myself he's also a victim of political violence and, you know, again, gop leadership position and we just didn't see that. i don't know. it's disappointing. >> if you could sit down and have a coffee or a beer with kevin mccarthy, what would you want to say? >> i don't know. i mean, i had a meeting with kevin mccarthy and we had a lengthy discussion, didn't really get anywhere, you know, we talked in circles, but, i mean, i will drink a beer with just about anybody. >> you talked in circles? >> yeah. >> explain that. explain what you thought he was doing. placating you? i don't mean to put words in your mouth. how would you describe what was happening? >> yeah, i think the meeting was only held because of the pressure that was being applied by the media to meet with me, just because of what my experience was like on january 6th. it was really just for the optics. i think it came at a time where we were

thanks to new recordings of house minority leader kevin mccarthy talking to his whip steve scalise about congressman matt gaetz's rhetoric just after the election. >> just as serious [ bleep ], to cut this out. >> yes, that's -- i mean, it's potentially el legal what he's doing. >> well, he's putting people in jen dishes and he doesn't need to be doing this. we saw what people would do in the capitol, you know, at least we came prepared with everything else. >> joining me now is charles below, neeps time columnist and msnbc nan lift and nancy mcclean "the deep history of the radical right's stealth plan." >> charles, i have to start with you. in a normal world the things that we heard kevin mccar think, the house republican leader say on january 6th would be normative, acceptable and even lauded. i mean, he had these moments of clarity and said what any of us would have said. this is unacceptable. these people are going to get someone hurt. the country is too craze. on what he said specifically about matt gaetz we now know that steve scalise who is the house minority whip met with gaetz,

amy: that was kevin mccarthy as well as republican congressmember steve scalise on a call with other republican lawmakers january 10, 2021. mccarthy would later defend the same lawmakers he privately criticized. tensions continue to escalate over the solomon islands after the pacific island nation signed a security deal with china. on tuesday, a high-ranking u.s. diplomat refused to rule out the u.s. taking military action against the solomon islands if china established a military presen on the islands. during a news briefing, the state department official, daniel kritenbrink, said the u.s. respects the solomon islands sovereignty but warned against china's presence in the region, saying the united states would "very naturally respond to those concerns." by some counts, the u.s. operates over 800 military bases around the world. china opened its first overseas base just four years ago in the african nation of djibouti. in burma, aung san suu kyi has been sentenced to another five years in prison after a closed military court found her guilty on corruption charges. suu kyi was overth

steve scalise, other members. we know kevin be challenged by the margery green caucus but what about those on the precipice of elevating their leadership? do they begin to message test their candidacy. >> fr speakership should republicans win the house back? >> or does he get credit if they do get the house back and have donald trump behind him at that point? >> i'm bullish on kevin mccarthy than our colleague, david jolly here. i think this too shall paz. it's not the first time someone has said something nasty about don on the. in fact, last week donald trump endorsed j.d. vance who said bad things about trump only to be in his good graces. i think there's a lot of time before the elections and vote for next speaker. and secondly, the republicans are poised to win a big house majority. i think that's going to over shadow whatever exists. let me add there may be other things mccarthy has said about trump. but our reporting from trump world is trump is not totally alarmed by this and he thinks it makes him look superior to mcca

kevin mccarthy. it was between matt gates and congressman steve scalise, the number two house republican here. >> isn'that weird? >> well, it makes a little bit of sense. for mccarthy, he's sort of tethered to what trump's opinion is here. >> hold on. is mccarthy a real person or is he just a stand-in for donald trump at this point? do the lawmakers in his caucus see him as a real leader or is he just essentially -- i hate -- how do i describe it? is he just a hollowgram projecting what donald trump wants? >> this caucus is a group of people who want to be led by the ideas of the former president. he is still the standard bearer of this party. you can ask many of the people who walk the hall behind me. they're not going to argue with the fact that donald trump is the most powerful republican in the party right now. kevin mccarthy has stuck very close to him. there is very little that he has said in recent months that makes him different than the former president. when you talk about the characterizations that trump made, it sticks closely to what my sources have told me his reaction was after all this

the time, i was protecting president trump from impeachment, and kevin mccarthy was protecting liz cheney from criticism. what i said to steve scalise, if you accuse someone of potentially breaking the law, and by the way, he wasn't reacting to something, he raised the prospect of the illegality of my statement that liz cheney was anti trump. if you accuse someone of breaking the law, you have to say what law you think they broke? and you have to present what evidence. >> the january 6th committee chairman says members will consider, consider, possible subpoenas for mccarthy and other lawmakers before the weeks end. with that, let's dig in and bring in our experts tonight, msnbc contributors jackie allegheny, neal katyal department of justice veteran, and former acting solicitor general during the obama administration he has argued dozens of cases before the u. s. supreme court. and former u.s. attorney joyce vance, who spent 25 years as a federal prosecutor. jackie, today republicans gave kevin mccarthy a standing ovation. but fast forward, 8:00 tonight, fox news, matt gaetz giving him yet another beat down. so where does m

kevin mccarthy's intent. number one, he was concerned about the threats of violence, steve scalese, frankly, is the one who even never actually says the word illegal, so no, it is quite troubling and concerning but again this is what they thought in the moment which bolsters the entire case that the january 6th committee is investigating right now. >> you know, ron, these tapes reveal, really, a stark difference between mccarthy's public statements the last 15 months and what he was willing to say in private. i mean claims this won't hurt his chances of becoming speaker, but will all the tapes coming out, you know, of him saying all these things, could there be a political price that he is going to have to pay here? >> here's what really concerns me, listening to all these tapes. when you think about that question, you know, the price, you would think, well maybe he doesn't get to be speaker, well maybe the price is what he has to promise in order to get to be speaker after all of this. i mean the fact that, you know, that trump is not jumping up and down about this, certainly suggests that mccarthy is doing so

kevin durant says the news of the shooting is devastating, his words. the head coach steve tragic morning. in response to this shooting, mass transit systems in cities across the country, they have increased patrols. pete, what's the response so far? >> we heard from the biggest public transit systems in the united states. they say they are monitoring the new york subway attack. that includes the washington, d.c. metro system, nbta, which operates the t in boston, bart in san francisco, septa in philadelphia and marta in atlanta. transportation secretary pete buttigieg was briefed. the department of transportation is offering support to the mta. the u.s. department of transportation federal transit administration also say they are monitoring this. here is what is changing now. mass transit systems say they are stepping up canine sweeps and police patrols. they underscore, they are face nothing credible threats at the moment. remember, service transportation is really hard to secure. securing sprawling transit systems, not like beefing up airport security. people take about

kevin mccarthy has to be concerned about it. what he said about matt gaetz was correct and steve scalise.nts, dangerous comments of some of the members who were really getting on the edge of inciting violence needed to be -- really needed to be clamped down on. they're right about it. i wish they followed their initial instincts, the correct ones, and because -- by not cracking down on them, they emboldened them and empowered them, the fringe elements, just making all their lives difficult. >> being the voice of reason in private doesn't seem to be very helpful. charlie dent, thank you as always. >> thank you, bianna. >>> well, up next, russia's war on ukraine may be thousands of miles away. but it is having a very real impact on energy prices here in the u.s. we'll tell you how. cal: our confident forever plan is possible with a cfp® professional. a cfp® professional can help you build a complete financial plan. visit letsmakeaplaorg to find your cfp® professional. ♪ for people who are a little intense about hydration. neutrogena® hydro boost lightweight. fragrance-free. 48 hour hydratio

liz cheney, who you also hear, and steve scalise, mccarthy's deputy, both say they are not the source of the tape. so part of this also is kevin of who? who is it as i try to be speaker who is recording my calls? >> and a lot of people are on those calls. could have been anyone. the question, though, for mccarthy is, what does this -- how does this impact him in the long term and his standing within the republican conference which is one reason his call was to donald trump after this recording broke that these guys were able to obtain because the trump wing of the republican conference and the house is sizable. they're vocal and they can inject them as speaker if donald trump were to round up the votes to prevent him from ascending to the speakership. in talking to republican sources this morning, they feel pretty confident that mccarthy is still in good standing because trump has not come out and said anything to try to bash him, throw him under the bus. mccarthy has been allied with trump ever since the days after january 6th. he's done nothing to anger trump. for mccarthy, the real question will be, how big was house majori

kevin stittjoins us to make his. good morning to you. >> good morning thank you for having me on. >> steve: where is this coming. >> fromr have jurisdiction in eastern oklahoma. that would be like coming into boston and saying no longer was that part of the state of massachusetts it's thrown our law enforcement into upheaval. we have lost the ability to enforce law and order if there is a native victim involved. that's what this case is about. remember, who is a native or who is an indian? it's about 10% of oklahoma population. i have my indian card. my six children with blond hair and blue eyes have their indian card. so law enforcement is having a tough time because you can't tell who a native is and who isn't in oklahoma because we have never had reservations in oklahoma. >> steve: governor, this case today. hear the arguments on behalf of your state. the case today is what? >> chester was a really bad guy that almost killed a 5-year-old native girl. she'll wasn't a member of an oklahoma tribe. she was a member of a north carolina tribe. she was sentenced to 35 years in prison. and because she was a native victim aft

kevin mccarthy spoke before knowing the facts," he said, noting that he never spoke with him directly. in that phone call, mr. mccarthy wasn't speaking to a small group of republican leaders, including steve scalise, tom cheney -- liz cheney and a number of aides. that is where these recordings came from and it appears that is where the call with donald trump came from as well. your thoughts on these tapes? caller: hello? host: hello. caller: hey, john. unfortunately, you get to be the guy that gets picked on by me this morning on the same topic i talked about last time i called in. it is find that you are covering this topic this morning, but i have to come again, ask -- to, again, ask, why is it that one year and a half later we still have not heard any audiotapes or seen any videos of hunter biden's laptop? that is a story, john. it really is a story and it was one that was neglected to your into africa. it is still being neglected by the powers that be including c-span. i wish she would get maranda on the program and let's have a real look at the hunter laptop story and the joe biden-hunter biden story. host: it came up yesterday when the attorney general was on capitol hill, bill hag

steve liesman live for us tonight on the economy thank you. >>> oklahoma is cracking down on abortions with a very strict new law. the republican governor kevin stit has signed a near total ban while sitting behind a sign that reads life is a human right. the only exception in this new law comes when an abortion will save a woman's life. the law makes it a felony for anybody in the state to perform an abortion. the punish nlt today the governor said he plans to sign every anti-abortion bill that comes to his desk. >> we want oklahoma to be the most pro life state in the country. we want to outlaw abortion in the state of oklahoma. it's attacking women's rights. cnbc's perry rusom >> reporter: it's a collision of abortion rights in oklahoma. >> we are no longer going to allow it and make nearly all borings illegal. >> this will be influenced by the u.s. supreme court >> in june the supreme court is expected to look at ruling on dobbs. they're looking at possibly eroding the legality of abortion just this month maryland state lawmakers expanded access to abortion in kentucky they vetoed a bill that would ban aboriton after 15 weeks. governor gr

the language that kevin mccarthy uses, and by the way, the other republican leaders on that call use, including liz cheney who was a member of leadership at the time, steve and they talk about the behavior of the far right in their own conference as truly, truly dangerous. and that's obviously not something that any of them, i guess other than cheney, would say in public. and she for her trouble is no longer a member of house republican leadership. and again, this is one of the central, central stories in our book, is how the republican party at least at the leadership level, recognized on and after january 6th that this was unacceptable, it was wrong, it was danger. it was, you heard one of the people on the call say possibly criminal, and how they decided not to do anything about it. >> yeah, and your previous reporting was that kevin mccarthy had told republican colleagues that he was going to tell donald trump to resign. you reported that. hours later -- >> next day. >> our own melanie zanona asked mccarthy about it, and he issued a denial that was just gibberish. it didn't even make any sense. he said oh, that asked me did i tell donald trump, and i

kevin mccarthy of california and other republican leaders criticize members of their own party in the days following the january 6th insurrection. at one point, mccarthy and his second in command, stevecalise of louisiana, who himself is a victim of a politically motivated attack when he was shot in 2017, singled out republican congressman matt gaetz, of florida, for his conduct which they worded could incite further violence. >> i am calling gaetz. i am explaining to him -- i don't know what i'm going to say, but i'm going to have some other people call him too, but the nature of -- what if i'm getting a briefing, and i'm going to get another one from the fbi tomorrow, just to sort this out. >> yes. that's, i mean, it's potentially illegal what he is doing. >> well, he's putting the people in jeopardy. and he doesn't need to be doing this. we saw what people would do in the capital, you know, and these people came prepared with rope, with everything else. >> today, mccarthy addressed those comments in a closed-door meeting with republicans. he reportedly told the conference leaked audio was merely a distraction for more politically salient issues for the party, which is very predict

kevin mccarthy's aspirations to be speaker were in at least some trouble. as revelations of this dribbled out, you did see criticism from influential members of former president trump's inner circle. steve bannon, for example, said -- he denied what was then found to be on tape. and you saw some of these congressman. gaetz publicly criticize the republican leader. this week, however, mccarthy and trump have talked, it looks like they've made up in some ways. and while last week, it looks like a lot of republicans were kind of in wait and see mode to see what mccarthy would say, with trump and say. mccarthy seems to have solidified in some ways is on standing here. my colleagues reported this evening that mccarthy held a leadership meeting and picked it over with his lieutenants, and they were all on view about what is happening, and they're trying to win a majority. it kind of remains to be seen how this is going to shake out. if republicans end up with a sizeable majority next year, mccarthy will probably have a very easy path to the speakership. however, if it's a narrow majority, and you still have a vocal pro trump faction that might vote against mccarthy then this could cause probl
