McCarthy: Ashli Babbit Was Not Murdered, The Officer Did His Job

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy might feel the wrath from the perpetually angry MAGA crowd after he answered a reporter's question as to whether rioter Ashli Babbit "was murdered or do you think the police officer who shot her was doing his job?"

"I think the police officer did his job," McCarthy said before walking away.

Watch:
