Politico: “Today’s private House GOP conference meeting is supposed to be about the Biden impeachment inquiry. But Speaker Kevin McCarthy is using his time to vent about conservatives who are standing in the way of his government funding plans.”
“Two Republican lawmakers who spoke to me on condition of anonymity recalled the speaker dropping an F-bomb as he declared that he is not scared of the right flank forcing a vote to yank his gavel. Essentially, he dared them to come at him.”
Said McCarthy: “Go ahead. I’m not fucking scared of it. Any new speaker will do what I’m doing.”
This is really McCarthy’s only move at this point.
