I Guess We'll Have To Call This "Pulling A McCarthy"

.@RepMTG says, under oath, that she does not recall saying Pelosi is guilty of treason and that treason is punishable by death.

They're referencing this CNN article from @emsteck and @KFILE.https://t.co/Ww1aJ5tdAD pic.twitter.com/i760TLeSFm

(And before you get excited: No, this is not perjury (likely not, at least). It is, however, just stupid. This, on the other hand, is an absolutely genius use of the passive voice:

Question: "It's true, though, that you liked a post that suggested that 'a bullet to the head of Nancy Pelosi would be a quicker way to remove her as Speaker of the House than impeachment'"

Yeah, that's stupid, too.

McCarthy was asked about his comments on this call earlier this year and he said: “I'm not sure what call you're talking about.” https://t.co/WMlTPH9S5k
