A radio host who asked House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy says he was forcibly removed from a Florida press conference after he asked a question about the commission probing the Jan. 6th attacks.
The host, Grant Stern, sought to query McCarthy about his opposition to Speaker Nancy Pelosi's commission, after he pulled GOP members off the panel nixed a pair of his initial selections.
'Why do you oppose the January 6th Commission, sir?' he yells as his video camera shakes during the encounter – in a clip that has been viewed more than 2 million times.
Stern claims he was removed by a congressional aide and four police at McCarthy's presser, meant to focus attention on protests in Cuba – although McCarthy's office said his staff wasn't involved.
'Minority leader, you said that the 1960 revolution, it created tyranny on the island of Cuba. And I am asking you a question' Stern said, according to video he Tweeted .
