Matt Gaetz: Speaker McCarthy Is A “Sad, Pathetic Liar”

“I am the most investigated man in the entire Congress. And right there you saw Kevin McCarthy lying like a dead dog, because I have never asked him to interfere in any ethics matter.

“That is an abject lie from a sad and pathetic man who lies to hold on to power. He lied to get power in January when he made this agreement, and he’s lying now about the basis for breach. And you know what? Eventually, the lying has to come to an end and the votes are gonna start on a motion to vacate.

“I certainly hope that instead of that path, the speaker comes into compliance on term limits, balanced budgets, and single-subject spending bills.

“If that happens, there will be no motion to vacate, which would totally cut against his argument that this is somehow about an ethics matter of, like, the lies of yesteryear.” – Matt Gaetz, after McCarthy accused him of working with Eric Swawell to oust him from the speakership.
