McCarthy pledges to restore Greene, Gosar to committees if GOP wins House
The Hill ^ | 11/18/2021 | CRISTINA MARCOS

Posted on 11/18/2021 10:25:36 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said Thursday that the two Republicans booted from committees this year, Reps. Paul Gosar (Ariz.) and Marjorie Taylor Greene (Ga.), would get those seats restored if Republicans win the majority in 2022.

“They’ll have committees,” McCarthy said at a press conference in the Capitol. “They may have other committee assignments. They may have better committee assignments.”

McCarthy also reiterated his threat that a future Republican House majority may remove Democrats from committees as retaliation for the votes this year taking punitive action against Gosar and Greene.

I nominate Maxine Waters and Alan Schiff as the first recipients of retaliation on committee assignments.

The social dynamics of a kindergarten recess.

While you’re correct that McCarthy is a RINO, he doesn’t have the authority to place somebody back on a committee. As I understand it, it’s up to the Speaker and the Chair.

So is he just doing this so MTG will stop talking about he and others?

The GOPe will be 100% behind McCarthy and he will be speaker.

Wish I was wrong, but I am very confident in this prediction.

“they MAY have democrats removed”
that’s like saying “You may have won a million dollars”
Sorry Pal, you’re just another flipping politician who will wait to say the right thing at the most opportune time (See Captain Jack Sparro in 1st Pirate Movie)

He can’t bring himself to say one bad thing about Joe Biden.

Like incompetent, out of touch, dangerous, etc.

He refuses.

How many GOP reps do not have committee assignments? They should form a caucus. MTG has made good use of her time since she doesn’t have to bother with boring committee duties.

Greene and Gosar should reciprocate and promise to allow McCarthy to have committee assignments if one of them ends up Speaker.

He’s a wimp and a fraud. And he’ll never look sideways at a Democrat for fear.

Same will happen if McCarthy is booted from leadership.

This is a free promise. Akin to “I promise to show up at work.”

I hope that McCarthy isn’t the leader if the House is retaken by Republicans. I don’t think two more years of bending over and allowing Democrats to sodomize conservatives will be acceptable.
