Minority Leader McCarthy dodged, disrespected and denied Officer Michael Fanone most of the reasonable asks the hero officer made of him. Now, as he urges his members to vote against the January 6th Committee, McCarthy is breaking the one promise he did make to Officers Fanone, Dunn and the family of Officer Sicknick: that he would take the Committee ‘seriously.'
And he'll have to break his promise with January 6th heroes in attendance for the vote.

Two days after Fox News' Chris Wallace called out House Republicans for voting to defund the police by voting against the American Rescue Plan, House Republicans took another vote to rip away funding local governments are using to pay police officers.

Washington, D.C. – Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued this statement after the United States conducted defensive precision airstrikes against facilities used by Iran-backed militia groups in the Iraq-Syria border region:
"The defensive airstrikes conducted today by the Department of Defense on operational and weapons storage facilities in the Iraq-Syria border region appear to be a targeted and proportional response to a serious and specific threat.
"Protecting the military heroes who defend our freedoms is a sacred priority. The Iran-backed militias utilizing these facilities have been engaged in attacks threatening U.S. servicemembers, as well as our allies.
"Congress looks forward to receiving and reviewing the formal notification of this operation under the War Powers Act and to receiving additional briefings from the Administration."
