Kevin McCarthy contacted Biden to discuss how to 'lower the temperature'

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy said that he is opposed to Democrats’ moves to impeach President Trump over the breach of the U.S. Capitol building and that he contacted President-elect Joe Biden.

“Impeaching the President with just 12 days left in his term will only divide our country more. I have reached out to President-elect Biden today and plan to speak to him about how we must work together to lower the temperature and unite the country to solve America’s challenges,” the top House Republican said in a statement on Friday.
