Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., says he told Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., to sit down as he “tried to interrupt” during a closed meeting with House Republicans. McCarthy also expressed his continued frustration with Gaetz and the other “crazy eight” that voted to oust him from the speakership.

#KevinMcCarthy #MattGaetz #Speaker

CNN,MSNBC ETC are having a field day with the confusion within the Republican party!!!!
By your own doing!!
In comments made on the capitol steps, Gaetz has shown he does not like free votes by secret ballot. It means Republican members can vote their preference without fear of getting threats to their families. The extent of the fear was clearly demonstrated by the wide gulf between how they voted on the floor of the House and how they voted in the caucus. Fear tactics are a foundation of MAGA strategy and they don't like it when fear is not a factor in where Republicans throw their support.
Now, McCarthy is saying it was Matt and “all the Democrats” who are responsible for what’s going on with Jim Jordan not being successful in his bid for the speakership. The Democrats had and has nothing to do with it; it’s all on Matt, he started this mess
I can't believe we're actually paying for them to do this. Get back to work, losers.
McCarthy should not have put his career ambitions before the country. He was being forced to stray from his responsibilities by the MAGAs. The country needs to watch this play out and observe the dysfunction of the GOP.
You voted with all the republicans to approve the rule that you could get booted out…
I am solidly behind the American Eight! Like the democrats, if the republican house were on the space station, 22 republicans would vote to turn off the oxygen for the good of everybody. Bowman would pull the fire Alarm and open the door. It is how Ignorant and self-centered they are. Get even in the Primaries.
Dude the magas need to go the Republicans need Liz Cheney!
He fired you.😂😂😂
So glad that Mccarthy is gone. Total liar and leftist bigot.
Gaetz is a liar.
His voted against every policy that would fight and limit the lobbyists.
Yet he blames other Republicans for working with them.
This is all about Single Subject Appropriation Bill. Ask Kev about that,,no one in medie has.
Matt is a Republican not a Democrat!
Kevin's backroom deals with Biden cost him his position. He lied to both the left, and the right. He approved the 100 billion more dollars and 87000 armed tax agents after saying he wouldn't, and he lied to the Democrats about Jan 6th.
Mcclowny shut up and go away- you failed and gave Nancy a secret office.
oh! it is the democrats fault the Republicans can't get their 💩 together.😂
4% plus 100% equals more than 50%.
McCarthy is such a joke what a loser a traitor
Matt is correct. The DS is out of control.
McCarthy you are too much in favor of Democrats which got you in this position so dont blame Matt.
Go Gaetz
Gaets can't be trusted neither, never ever, such big man the treating fellow Republicans wife's and family's. There is a line you don't cross, big big mistake jordan will not be forgotten, time for you to find a new job!!!!
Gaetz knows what he's doing.. he's a rino agrent for the dems… simply a walking, talking POS…
McCarthy is a RINO and traitor to the Republicans. Can't do his job when speaker and bows to democrats every chance he gets. He's out and good riddance.
This man is a straight up democrat I like listen to him about as much as I like to listen to his buddy Joe Biden both turned my stomach
