  1. RINOs take note. McCarthy’s fate could be your own. Delightful to know RINO McCarthy got the message. Jim Jordon would likely be far better than McCarthy. Jordon and Kash Patel investigated the 2016 plot to prevent President Trump’s election by the FBI, which the Durham Report later confirmed.

  2. I think he did right. He crossed the isle to keep our country moving.

  3. Rather have McCarthy then Pelosi!

  4. This is why he is called the eunuch of Bakersfield.

  5. Maybe now I can get over the dizziness from all the spinning he did.

  6. He was a sellout…should never have be put in that position in the first place. The American people are tired of killing ourselves to live. It’s us against them. It’s time for them to be conquered.

  7. Yo McCarthy why don’t you make like a tree and GTFOH!

  8. We all knew he wasn't going last. Remember, they didn't want him anyhow he was a puppet, and when he buck against them, they got rid of him. By bud 😂

  9. He made a deal to get the position of speaker that pretty much set him up to fail. Then on Sunday after working with the democrats to avoid a shut down he lied on television about the it and lost the support leading to his ouster. 😂😂😂😂

  10. Kevin should have kept his old job making sandwiches, LOL

  11. He went to cal-state for FREE (In-state tuition was $0)!

  12. Grew up in a family of 5 with one income household and great public sector health insurance(dad was a firefighter). Went to college for free. Got some power and decided no one else should get what he had…great job

  13. Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV.

  14. “ I thought this guy would be lucky to have me.” Lol. The mediocre white man confidence

  15. GOP disintegrating before our eyes 😂😂

  16. The reporting on this event was lousy. There’s got to be more to the story.

  17. It is personal. We will pay more taxes to fund this than my cities annual budget. Government is a joke

  18. What a … D_____m fool.
    Bye Felicia

  19. Doing the right thing? Mccarthy played with fire and got burned. H sold his soul to the devil in order to become speaker and when he went back on what the extremists wanted he was kicked to the curb. He aided the extremists in emasculating the democratic party, tried for a Biden impeachment looking for an impeachable crime Because he got a 45 day budget extension he expects the democrats to support their rantings and ravings, blocking of important legislation, anything to stymie anything the democrats wanted and he expected democrats to bail him out because he got a 45 day budget extension? Get real, one good deal doesn't obliterate all the bad. Now we wait and see if we get an even worse speaker!

  20. How is his lying "working for the American people"?

  21. It’s always personal 🤷🏻‍♀️
