House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) said Tuesday that House Speaker Kevin McCarthy committed an "egregious security breach" by giving access to Jan. 6 footage to Fox News.<\/p>\n
Why it matters:<\/strong> Jeffries said his team is dealing with the potential national security implications of McCarthy's decision to share the tapes with Tucker Carlson, whom the lawmaker accused of peddling in conspiracy theories.<\/p>\n What's next: <\/strong>Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.), who chaired the Jan. 6 select committee, will host a presentation Wednesday at the Democratic Caucus' virtual meeting on the latest reports. <\/p>\n\n
