Lets go outfront. Good evening, i am erin burnett. Outfront. Breaking news. House republicans meeting Behind Closed Doors to debate the fate of liz cheney after she voted to impeach trump. That meeting lasted more than two hours. As her fate is up in the air, one thing the minority leader Kevin Mccarthy made clear already tonight is that he is picking a side. Marjorie Taylor Greenes side, a side of Conspiracy Theories, too fringe for fringe. A woman who days ago said she still truly believes that the election was stolen and fraudulent. A qanon supporter. Mccarthys words tonight, past comments by Marjorie Taylor greene on school shootings, Political Violence, antisemitic Conspiracy Theories do not represent the values or beliefs of the republican conference. Well, that is clearly not true because mccarthys actions speak much louder than words, he is siding with greene. Nowhere in his statement does he mention pulling her from both committees.

Kevin mccarthy with qanon supporter Marjorie Taylorgreene and could determine the future of the Republican Party in the United States. Because tonight the Republican Party is totally at odds over whether it will embrace qanon Conspiracy Theories as the core of the party and rhetoric like this from Marjorie Taylorgreene from 2019 thats just coming to light, will they embrace whats seen in this video uncovered by twitter user zedster . If we have a sea of people, if we shut down the streets, if we shut down everything, if we flood the capitol building, flood all of the government buildings, go inside. These are public buildings. We own them. We own these buildings. Do you understand that . We own the buildings and we pay the people who work in the buildings.

Spoke of the wind and what it has been like to stand out there and to wait for the departure of Officer Sicknick and all the people can see represented in the high numbers of Law Enforcement, fbi agents and all those who support the u.

Tell us whats happening. Reporter well, harris, right now were just watching these hundreds of u. S. Capitol Police Officers who have been standing firmly in the cold, in the wind, at attention for the last 30 minutes or so honoring their colleague and friend Brian Sicknick.
