Kevin McCarthy is escalating his revenge campaign against Rep. Matt Gaetz.
In an interview with POLITICO, McCarthy backed Gaetz’s new Florida GOP primary challenger; a top McCarthy adviser also acknowledged playing a role in vetting that opponent, Aaron Dimmock. And McCarthy delivered a slashing attack on Gaetz, who led the effort to overthrow him as speaker last fall.
“Gaetz is the Hunter Biden of the Republican Party,” McCarthy said. “He’s got an opponent who is pro-life, pro-Second Amendment, trained at Pensacola, went to the Naval Academy and flew jets to defend us while Gaetz was getting kicked out of high school, buying coke and paying minors for sex.”

nawww, he’s just showing us what a “Young Gun” he is with Paul FagRyan and Kantor who got kicked to the curb early... and he represents my hometown and is known as the dullest knife in the drawer. Totally sold out crook ... ymmv
SOunds like the CUT in BRIBE money from the Cartels is getting to him...
Circular firing squad. Wish the Democrats were as good at it.
STFU Kevin, you turd. So all a little lying ass like you can do is quit and them go home and cry about it? Thanks for nothing you traitor...
We should have voted your stupid establishment ass out years ago.
There’s no Alex anymore, it’s Ken now.
McCarthy accused of affair with House member after failed speaker bid
It's why he withdrew his name for Speaker at that time.
Yeah, I’m thinking defamation lawsuit. Get him Matt.
Cage. Match. PPV!
Probably not true, but Gaetz’s problem is that is seems plausible even if it’s not true. He gives off that vibe.
They never go against “the other side” with this much vigor.
The good news is Hunter has become the benchmark for scumbag.
kevin
scum
bag
ALSO ESTABLISHMENT FREEPERS: "OH we shouldn't get rid of Johnson cuz blah blah blah (threats and sniveling)"
Gaetz should kick his ass.
Wait until you see what’s going on in the house. There is no unity on the GOP side. We’ll be lucky to get 200 seats in November.
Gaetz is a graduate of Niceville Sr. High School. McCarthy isn’t doing himself any favors.
I’m nearly 55 years old. I cannot remember a single time when a GOP majority didn’t get frittered away by the party that is “stuck on stupid”. The closest is the brief time during the Bill Clinton administration when the “Contract With America” put pressure to do something about the snowball deficit spending... Clinton gets credit for that - but it was Newt and the Republicans that forced the issue. But even that majority was eventually frittered away.
Projection: accuse others of what you’re doing.
It will always be Alex to some of us.
