Traitors and criminals gathering at Mark Meadows' office:
Several Republican House members fighting to stop Rep. Kevin McCarthy from becoming speaker met Friday morning at the offices of the Conservative Partnership Institute, an organization run by Mark Meadows and Jim DeMint.
Meadows, a former Republican congressman from North Carolina, was chief of staff to former President Donald Trump and played a central role in efforts to overturn the 2020 election. He joined CPI as senior partner in January 2021, a few weeks after Trump supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6.
DeMint, a former Republican senator from South Carolina, launched CPI in 2017. Since Trump left office in 2021, it has become a connective hub for a host of former Trump advisers, including Meadows, budget chief Russ Vought and adviser Stephen Miller.
A little before 8:30 a.m. on Friday, Yahoo News observed several House Republicans who are leading the effort to block McCarthy, a California Republican, walking into the CPI offices a few blocks from the Capitol.
