the Capitol riot.
In the days after January 6, 2021, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy told Republicans in a private phone call that then President Donald Trump admitted that he shared some responsibility for the Capitol riot, according to CNN.
But during a news conference on Thursday, McCarthy told reporters that he couldn't recall that phone conversation.
"I'm not sure what call you're talking about," McCarthy said.
CNN reported on the phone call at the time, and on Thursday the news outlet obtained a detailed readout of what McCarthy told his Republican colleagues.
"Let me be clear to you and I have been very clear to the president. He bears responsibility for his words and actions. No if, ands, or buts," McCarthy told House Republicans on January 11, 2021, according to CNN. "I asked him personally today if he holds responsibility for what happened. If he feels bad about what happened. He told me he does have some responsibility for what happened. But he needs to acknowledge that."
McCarthy also said in a local radio interview on January 12, 2021, that Trump "told me personally that he does have some responsibility" for the riot.
