House Speaker Kevin McCarthy met with Micki Witthoeft, the mother of Ashli Babbitt who was killed during the Jan. 6 riots, to discuss McCarthy's previous comments about Babbitt's death. Witthoeft has been organizing nightly protests outside the D.C. jail since Aug. 1, and estimates that 5,000-8,000 people have been live streaming the protests. After the meeting, Witthoeft said it went well and she was expecting good things to come from it.
