Republican Liars and Traitors
Text messages, public records, and voice recordings are exposing the hypocrisy and lies of the GOP leadership.
Mark Meadows, Kevin McCarthy, and Marjorie Taylor Greene are just the latest examples of Republicans who continue to lie about the January 6 Insurrection, even when contradicted by their own text messages and voice recordings. Elizabeth Warren called out the "illness that pervades the Republican leadership right now, they say one thing to the American public and something else in private." Warren also called Kevin McCarthy, "a liar and a traitor."

The text messages, obtained by CNN, help illuminate how far the Trump White House and its allies secretly tried to go to overturn the 2020 election.
Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia testified under oath for three hours Friday at an unprecedented disqualification hearing that focused on whether she is constitutionally barred from holding office because of her role in the January 6 insurrection.
