[WATCH] ‘Lying Liars Lie’: Elie Mystal Shreds ‘Qevin’ McCarthy For Backtracking on Trump Tapes

By now it’s clear that Rep. Kevin “Qevin” McCarthy (Q-Mar-A-Lago) is fully owned by Donald Trump and wouldn’t speak the truth about their insidious and unspeakable relationship, not even when his own voice is heard on a recording speaking the truth about Trump.

It’s kind of hard to keep up with all of the terrible that the January 6th House Select Committee released into the public domain this week, but basically, McCarthy was like “We need to get rid of Trump” and then he was all “Actually I never said that” even though we have the receipts thanks to traitorous trashbag Elise Stefanik, who’d probably auction off her baby to the highest bidder if it meant she could be Trump’s running mate.

Allegedly, Trump isn’t big mad at Kevin “Well, Kevin, I guess these people care more about the election than you do” McCarthy, but I find that hard to believe. Trump hates the truth, so he usually lashes out at the person saying the truths rather than admit to it. But it doesn’t change the fact that we’ve heard McCarthy say Trump “bears responsibility” for his actions surrounding the January 6th Capitol riot.

At every turn, Kevin McCarthy knew Donald Trump was a threat to democracy. But instead of honoring his oath of office he placed politics ahead of defending the nation.

Soon, there will be televised hearings. Just who will be called and will actually show up remains to be seen. In the meantime, Elie Mystal shared his unique perspective on the McCarthy mishegoss by summing it up pretty succinctly with Tiffany Cross on MSNBC’s “Cross Connection”: “Lying liars lie.” Bring the noise, Elie!
