U.S. House Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) shared a video on his social media titled “The Real Kevin McCarthy”.
The video starts with former “establishment” GOP Speaker of the House Paul Ryan describing Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) as “the right person” for Speaker of the House.
The next clip shows Fox News’ Steve Doocy asking McCarthy about living with the corporate consultant and pollster Frank Luntz. McCarthy seems to laugh off the question replying, “I didn’t know how this was controversial”.
The video then cuts back to Ryan saying, “We came together as a team in 2015, we put together an agenda, we are executing that agenda, we’re getting it done.”
The next clip is Kevin McCarthy with Fox News’ Bill Melugin. Melugin asks McCarthy about the audio where McCarthy says he has had enough of Donald Trump and would ‘tell him to his face’ that he should resign. Melugin then asks him, “Do you still stand by those comments?”
McCarthy sidestepped, “I never told the president to resign, it was a conversation that we had about scenarios going forward.” Melugin asks, “Did you lie?” In the clip, McCarthy’s answer is echoed, “No”.
The video continues highlighting McCarthy as an establishment GOP. His call for bipartisan justice against “the mob” referring to January 6th.
At one point Gaetz shares, “This is the same Kevin McCarthy who said that I was a danger to others because I verbally criticized Liz Cheney. This is the same Kevin McCarthy who spent tens of millions of dollars in primaries against America First candidates.”
Joe Kent is featured in the video saying, “Kevin McCarthy is still supporting 5 of the 10 GOP impeachment voters. He wants to wear MAGA like a bumper sticker, to use it to drive funds and fundraising.”
McCarthy wants to be the Speaker of the House. Many GOP members are ready for a change in leadership, someone who is outside of the establishment. Publicly there are five members of the GOP who have shared they will vote no on McCarthy for Speaker and others who have not publicly committed.

Gaetz also shared a video of an interview he did will Mike Huckabee on Gettr, with “Democrats will not elect the next Speaker of the House. That is a threat constructed by folks in The Swamp of Washington who want a Speaker beholden to lobbyists.”
Words that may be targeted at GOP members like Marjorie Taylor Greene, who are afraid that the Democrats will elect the next Speaker of the House if they don’t all align behind McCarthy.
Gaetz has pushed back against social media influencers trying to help McCarthy.
The Speaker of the House will be elected on the first day of the next Congress which will be in January of 2023. We will see what becomes of this struggle within the GOP.

Matt is extremely compromised. Let me ask just one question the demands a ‘Yes’ or ‘No’. Did he take a minor, not related to him, without parental consent across state borders? Just a ‘Yes’ or ‘No’. Most of us are NOT stupid!
Answer to your question is No. Question asked Question answered.
And the Donald never cheated on his three wives, slept with hookers or stated the jabs are safe and effective. You definitely have to get out more.
Do you have any relevant commentary?
Why would anybody care if he cheated or not?
I guess it would depend on what your definition of a “hooker” is. I suspect most women in your eyes.
I’m sure your vaccine god Fauci as well as other “experts” in the medical field gave the President the erroneous information concerning the clot shot.
McCarthy would feel more comfortable as a democrat. How many knife wounds does it take before you stop turning your back to McCarthy? If actual illegal actions were committed by a conservative they would already be serving time, where as a liberal always gets a pass.
because the rhinos are helping destroy the middle class.
This article and video reminded me to set the trash out tonight.
e verify was passed in 1997
Kevin and the rhinos and pelosi never funded it
doing so would have stopped obama from doing DACA and the dreamers bs
BUUUUUUT KNOW – they sold out 119 million green card people
destroyed the american border
electing that POS – is asking for 8 more years of political trash selling out the country fattening themselves on the hog while they destroy the middle class
so – not for that

I se there are some dems pretending to be repubs hating on Matt.
McCarthy is a plant and any conservative that likes him is either horribly misinformed or just another rino.
All three Mcidiots need to be kicked to the curb.
McCarthy is a snake in the grass. Him and McConnell are democrats at heart.
We don’t need another Paul Ryan as speaker!
Give him hell, Matt. He’s a scumbag in RINO clothing.
