President Trump acknowledged that he bears some blame for the Capitol riot last week during a conversation with House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy, a source familiar told Fox News.
Two sources say McCarthy R-Calif., relayed the president’s sentiment on a call Monday with the House GOP Conference.
McCarthy, on the call Monday with Republicans, agreed that Trump bore blame for the unrest which sent Congress into lockdown as they tried to certify the results of the 2020 presidential election last week.
The White House did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
The riot left five people dead, including one Capitol Police officer.
The riot came after the president spoke at a rally last Wednesday, telling supporters that he would "never concede," and repeated unsubstantiated claims that the election was "stolen" from him and that he won in a "landslide."
During his remarks, he renewed pressure on Vice President Pence, claiming that he should decertify the results of the presidential election and send it "back to the states," claiming that if he did that, Trump would be president for another four years.
Trump’s remarks came ahead of a joint session of Congress to certify the results of the presidential election. As members of the House and Senate raised objections to certain electoral votes, both chambers called for a recess and left their chambers as pro-Trump protesters breached the Capitol building.

BEEE-ESSS!!!
I don’t believe it.
Exactly....BS. If not, and Trump is actually saying this, I want to hear it from him. So sad if this is remotely true
If True, it is why we are where we are now. The republicans in the House better learn to get Unified and Fight or die off. Right Now they should be DEMANDING the Prostitutes Impeachment for her INCITE TO RIOT that She is So Proud of.
Trump didn’t say anything in his speech on Wednesday that encouraged the property destruction and lawlessness that we saw at the Capitol.
Stupid people did that, and made it very convenient for the MSM to demonize all of us.
McCarthy lying or the propagandists, one or the other.
I’m doubtful.
Where’s the ELECTION AUDIT, Media??????????
And the snake McCarthy said that Trump will not only concede but also attend Bidens innaug as long as he can attende with his favorite lady of DC, honest Hillary.
Ahh, Sources say.
= = = = = = = = = =
Ah, ‘we’ should ban any and all correspondences that originates from ‘sources’......
Especially if CNN, WashCompost, NYTslimes etc is the submitter....
Bullshit. It would be an admission of guilt and the Rats would wave that as proof he should be impeached and convicted and removed.
Primary anyone who takes donations from Big Tech
Doubt it
You will notice I posted this in Chat. Cheese Moose Sister.
I gave this trash the dishonor it deserves.
A POLICE OFFICER WAS MURDERED.
If anything, I could see Trump saying something like maybe holding the rally at the Capitol, in hindsight, might not have been a good idea, especially with the potential for agent provocateurs to rile up the crowd.
Not true.
Democrats staged this. And Trump won by a landslide.
Post this ALL over. Capitol police opened the doors to Antifa disguise in Trump garb. You can tell because they are covering their faces so they cannot be recognized later. These people came to do harm. And it was a set up and it was planned.
How could the Capitol police let in Antifa on such a monumental important day?
What horrible people!

Please copy this before it is again removed. (It was removed last night when Parler went down.). I just found it again because someone else posted it.
HERE IS THE VIDEO THAT shows Capitol police opened the doors and let Antifa in (who were disguised as Trump supporters.). Another video shows bus loads of people who security brought to the Capitol.

When you repeat what someone else says without finding out for yourself whether or not it's true, that's not news. That's gossip.
More CYA leaking from the GOP. Team Pence has been doing a bunch of this, too.
