On Thursday, House minority leader Kevin McCarthy visited Donald Trump at his golf resort in Bedminster, where the two undoubtedly talked about the January 6th Select Committee. McCarthy is in charge of selecting Republicans for the committee, and Trump will surely want some of his sycophants to serve in order to thwart any real work from getting done. It remains to be seen how McCarthy is going to act going forward, but it is safe to assume that Donald Trump has at least one hand on the steering wheel at this point. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

The Democratic chair will just have to let them spew then get back to digging out the facts and reminding the nation the trump excited an attempted coup on his own government so he could stay in power.

Maybe it would, but it would seem such collaboration should immediately remove McCarthy from participation beyond that of being a witness. (Just be sure anything he testifies to is under oath - and nail his ass to a tree if and when he lies. I'm sure I'm not the only one totally sick of his BS.)
