Americans across the country share responsibility for the Jan. 6 breach of the U.S. Capitol, according to the top Republican in the House of Representatives.

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) noted then-President Donald Trump that day told supporters to “demonstrate peacefully,” but said he should have responded faster after the breach.
