This is some wacky stuff. Congress is like middle school, only not as mature.
I am glad he is gone, the GOPe or the Dims would have held this over him to run him like a damned puppet if it had not come out to the public.
His response to this suggests some credibility to the allegation. I suspect far too many of our GOP have crap hanging over their heads like this.
What the hell is going on, and why would Boehner put up his deputy for Speaker if he knew he would be torpedoed?
Two down, how many more to go? Get rid of the corrupt GOPe, even if replaced with a Dem (who can then be replaced later). The party is bound to change if enough of these people get booted from Congress.
The dirty trick squad is out playing games, sort of Vince Flynn-ish, except without the bullets. I hope they’ve instilled some fear in the bad actors including McConnell.
The Speaker of the House is too close to the US presidency to be held by someone who is black mailable and too morally weak to respect his own wife and family. Honor your vows or get a divorce .
We the people deserve better .
Hi 2DV,
Why am I not surprised that a RINO resigns without a fight? Ted Cruz has repeatedly called RINOs out for their lack of courage. They all show cowardice when events get difficult.
Don’t get me wrong. I’m glad McCarthy is gone, but I’m sad that there is such a show of caving before a vote. McCarthy learned his skedaddling lessons well from Boehner.
Go Ted! Give them Hell!

RE: Kevin McCarthy’s Exit Came After Personal Threat Over Affair Allegations
Why resign if the allegations are untrue?
