Kevin McCarthy House Speaker Votes, Congressman Lunges at Gaetz

The House of Representatives began appearing like a UFC battle Friday night, when a congressman needed to be physically limited from assaulting among his coworkers.

It decreased late Friday night after the 14th choose Speaker of the House … where Kevin McCarthy once again stopped working to get the necessary variety of votes.

Rep Mike Rogers (Republican, Alabama), a McCarthy fan, was enjoying Matt Gaetz … who in part led the opposition to McCarthy and voted no.

Rogers eyeballed Gaetz having a talk with McCarthy, and obviously saw Gaetz mouth the word “committee.” It’s uncertain precisely what the 2 were speaking about, however Gaetz was serving on the House Armed Services Committee, which Rogers chairs. It obviously appeared like McCarthy and Gaetz reached some sort of contract.

We’re thinking — however appears like an excellent guess — Rogers was anxious McCarthy was going to provide the chairmanship to Gaetz in return for his vote, which set Rogers off.

C-SPAN got shots of Rogers losing it, strolling to the row in which Gaetz was sitting and after that totally lunging at him. Other representatives attempted to prevent an attack by getting Rogers by the chin and shoulders … holding him back.

Rogers then shrieked at Gaetz, “I won’t forget this!”
