House Speaker Kevin McCarthy made a rare Capitol Hill appearance on Tuesday to commemorate the anniversary of Tiananmen Square.
Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., offered mild praise for his successor on Tuesday during a rare appearance back on Capitol Hill. McCarthy told Fox News Digital he was in Washington for Monday night's swearing-in of his former aide, newly minted Rep. Vince Fong, R-Calif., who won a tight race to replace him. McCarthy said he was also there for a press conference commemorating the 35th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre.
McCarthy appeared to take an indirect shot at Johnson over the bipartisan vote last month during an appearance on Politico's 'Power Play' podcast. 'I couldn’t live with myself if I’d done a deal with Democrats,' McCarthy had said. 'If you can’t sustain being speaker by your own majority, should you sustain it? No.' Fox News Digital reached out to Johnson's office for comment.
