So is someone going to sue Kevin McCarthy and Fox News for this deal to hand over all the Capitol security footage from Jan. 6 to (checks notes) Tucker Carlson exclusively? How is that even remotely legal? @aclu

And that isn't a bad thing. Perhaps that will result in another wave of media coverage to keep the awareness of Jan6 front-of-mind in the public.

I imagine they will amend their complaint or bring a new motion in light of this nonsense.
