‘Republicans Will Not Forget’: McCarthy Issues Warning Regarding Jan. 6 Records

Republican House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy has threatened telecom companies to not comply with the January 6 committee request for private phone records. He argues that compliance with the demand would violate federal law, and warned that “a Republican majority would not forget.” The congressional committee investigating the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol requested telecommunications companies to turn over phone records of President Donald Trump, his family members, and anyone they associate with.
