McCarthy officially endorses Stefanik over Cheney in GOP House vote

​Republican House leader Kevin McCarthy for the first time on Sunday officially endorsed Rep. Elise Stefanik to replace Rep. Liz Cheney in her leadership post, saying Republicans need a unified conference to battle the Biden administration’s agenda.

“Do you support Elise Stefanik for that job?” Maria Bartiromo asked McCarthy on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures.” “Yes, I do,” McCarthy replied.
