Cheney, Scalise deny involvement after leaked recordings reveal McCarthy recommended Trump resign

Lauren Fine, the spokeswoman for House Republican Whip Steve Scalise of Louisiana, told Fox News Digital that neither Scalise nor any of his staffers leaked the audio.

"Millions of American are suffering right now under President Biden and Speaker Pelosi’s big-government socialist agenda that has given us record high inflation, with skyrocketing gas prices and a border crisis, yet the only thing the Democrat media continues to obsess over is January 6th," Fine said.

"Whip Scalise’s sole focus is on working with his colleagues to stop the radical Democrat agenda," she continued. "Neither he nor anyone on his team recorded or leaked private conversations among members."

Additionally, the timing of the leak raises questions, as well.

McCarthy is the GOP front-runner to take over the speakership should Republicans take back the House in November, which is decided by internal elections in Congress.

Elections for Speaker of the House tend to happen on the first day of a new Congress — January 3 — which means if the leak was an attempt to sink McCarthy’s run for speaker, it came incredibly early.
