Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) scolded Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) during a closed-door GOP conference meeting Thursday, telling the Florida Republican to sit down when he tried to interrupt McCarthy’s remarks.
Oh please assault one another…
This shit is just gravy…
I like it better when they say silly things to each other. More fodder for the late night comics. Sad that Colbert had covid again :(
I mean, I wouldnt mind if a capitol janitor opens a broom closet to find Gym and Gaetz wrapped up in a post-coital bliss (as long as said janitor is live streaming).
Honestly, this is better than the alternative of them passing shitty laws and getting things done.
If McCarthy was an underage girl Gaetz would’ve done it already
What an absolute shit show. You love to see it.
Guess the clown act is wearing thin.
Runs deep though.
“Sit your ass down,” McCarthy said, according to the source, prompting Gaetz to “say something back.”
I wanna know what Gaetz said back, but apparently no one’s repeating that.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) scolded Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) during a closed-door GOP conference meeting Thursday, telling the Florida Republican to sit down when he tried to interrupt McCarthy’s remarks.
The interaction came as House Republicans met for almost four hours to consider possible paths forward as the conference struggles to coalesce around a candidate for Speaker after Gaetz led a group of eight Republicans who joined with Democrats to oust McCarthy.
The conference nominated Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) for the post, but he has failed on two floor votes to secure the gavel.
At one point, while speaking at the mics during the gathering, McCarthy mentioned Gaetz by name, according to a source in the room.
“Sit your ass down,” McCarthy said, according to the source, prompting Gaetz to “say something back.”
Remember, it was the crazy eight led by Matt Gaetz and every single Democrat that put us into this situation.”

McCarthy scabbing during the SAG-AFTRA strike, acting the part of, “Guy With a Spine.”
“He gets his Irish up sometimes,” Gaetz added.
