House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) held his first Capitol Hill news conference since the 2020 election. The Republican leader touted the gains his party made in the election and questioned whether President-elect Joe Biden would be the eventual winner of the presidential race, citing the need to count every vote despite all major decision desks having called the race six day earlier. He praised his conference’s record number of incoming freshman women and defended Representatives-elect Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and Lauren Boebert (R-CO), who have espoused the QAnon conspiracy theory. He said they have since denounced the conspiracy theory and that the press should “give them an opportunity before you claim what you believe they have done and what they will do.” close
