"Downward Spiral:" Kevin McCarthy Gets Into Physical Altercation With One of the Eight Republicans Who Voted to Depose Him

It's who they are, as a wise man often says.

This is reported at RedState, taking posts from X/Twitter and condensing them into a coherent narrative.

While talking to Rep. Tim Burchett after the GOP conference meeting, former Speaker McCarthy walked by with his detail and McCarthy shoved Burchett. Burchett lunged towards me. I thought it was a joke, it was not. And a chase ensued. Burchett's back was to McCarthy and his detail walking by in the hallway, then the lunge.

Burchett responded jokingly as McCarthy kept walking, "Sorry Kevin didn't mean to elbow --" then seriously yelled, "Why'd you elbow me in the back Kevin?! Hey Kevin, you got any guts!?"

Burchett then looked back at me and said, "Jerk," referring to McCarthy. I asked if he had done that before, Burchett said "No." That's when the chase ensued. Burchett took off after McCarthy and his detail. I chased behind with my mic. Burchett yelled after catching up to McCarthy, "Hey Kevin, why'd you walk behind me and elbow me in the back?"

KM: "I didn't elbow you in the back."

Burchett: "You got no guts, you did so, the reporter said it right there, what kind of chicken move is that. You got no guts, you did so--the reporter said it right there, what kind of chicken move is that? You're pathetic man, you are so pathetic."

Burchett starts to walk away from McCarthy, tells me, "What a jerk," and then yells back; 'You need security Kevin!'"

Burchett tells me that's the first point of "communication" with McCarthy since Burchett voted for McCarthy's ouster as speaker last month: "That's just it" for communication since ouster vote, "He's just a jerk. He's just a childish little." Burchett adds: "Did you just see that?" he asks in disbelief. I'm stunned, too."

[Burchett] says he won't follow up with McCarthy on what happened, "He's on a downhill spiral. He just, that was pretty gutless of him. I'm disappointed in his, in him."

More at the link.

Burchett describes the check below:

Burchett also says that Kevin McCarthy has $17 million in a campaign slush fund which he intends to use to punish his enemies in elections:

McCarthy is "still angry," CNN reports. Still grumbling about having been deposed.

McCarthy says he's undecided about whether to run again in 2024. I still doubt he'll serve out his current term. Especially if he really is on a "downward spiral" and deliberately banging his enemies in the kidneys.

It's who they are.

Bloody the GOPe's nose. It was totally worth it.

Johnson seems to be weak and out of his depth, but whatever. In terms of policy, it's not much different than if Gaetz hadn't pantsed McCarthy, one of the most powerful Republicans in DC, for all the world to see.

41 ]DETROIT — Chrysler parent Stellantis is offering buyouts to roughly half of its U.S. white-collar employees to reduce headcount and cut costs for the automaker’s North American operations. The voluntary separation packages will be offered to 6,400 of its 12,700 nonbargaining unit U.S. employees ....

The move marks the latest cost-cutting efforts for the U.S. auto industry, as companies attempt to reduce costs amid economic concerns and billions of dollars in new investments for emerging technologies such as electric vehicles. Both General Motors and Ford Motor also have cut salaried workers over the past year.

“As we prepare for the transition to electric vehicles, Stellantis announced today that it will offer a voluntary separation package to assist those non-represented employees who would like to separate or retire from the Company to pursue other interests with a favorable package of benefits.”

"Pursue other interests"! Like they're going to find another overpaid job like that.

104 100 Harvard faculty are concerned by all of the people defending Israel, Jews, and denouncing the phrase, "From the river to the sea, Palestine must be free."

They signed a letter containing the following passage, "Similarly, the phrase 'from the river to the sea, Palestine must be free' has a long and complicated history. Its interpretation deserves, and is receiving, sustained and ongoing inquiry and debate. Singling it out as necessarily implying removalism or even eliminationism - when over a million Palestinians have been forced from their homes and over ten thousand civilians, including four thousand children, have been slain in Gaza, actions which the Holocaust historian Omer Bartov suggests in the New York Times may amount to a 'crime against humanity' being executed with 'genocidal intent' - is imprudent as a matter of university policy and badly misjudged as an act of moral leadership."

Got that? They're not sure what the phrase means, and besides, Israel is pushing people from their homes and Hamas tells us Israel has killed 10K people, and a famous Israeli historian says Israel may be executing a genocide, so we should be allowed to scream that inscrutable phrase.

111 McCarthy only hung in because he thought he could sabotage everybody else and get brought back in as the 'compromise' Speaker.

Instead the process exposed him as the petty, backstabbing little jackass he's always been.

Now he's just throwing a tantrum.

But he played the game, fought his way in, set the conditions for all of this to happen, then failed - I think on purpose - to do what he promised. What he's done, reduced to common parlance, is that he made a bad bet and now he's pissed that he's broke. Too bad, so sad, etc.

201 So it turns out McCarthy is unhappy at being deposed. Not surprising. He's probably really, really, really pissed off about it. His grand scheme fell to pieces and he has nothing - less than nothing - to show for it.

But he played the game, fought his way in, set the conditions for all of this to happen, then failed - I think on purpose - to do what he promised. What he's done, reduced to common parlance, is that he made a bad bet and now he's pissed that he's broke. Too bad, so sad, etc.

It is interesting, if you assume someone like McCarthy is actually any sort of conservative that he would have resigned. Each one of his endless political losses that occurred under his watch hurt the country and if you can't win...you need to give a different leader a chance.

There was a spoken or unspoken agreement that the US wouldn't destroy the Abbey if the Germans didn't use it in the defense of the Mountain. They didn't, by all accounts but the lack of progress frustrated the commanders enought that they did destroy the Abbey, after which the Germans did use the rubble for defense.

Abe Lincoln was challenged to a duel once, though the articles that were objected to were probably written by his girlfriend and another woman. He chose broadswords as the weapon, and since he was likely about a foot taller, and had long arms and was very strong indeed the sight of him warming up induced a willingness of the challenger to accept an apology and explanation that no insult was meant.

333 Per Wikipedia:

Monte Cassino was not initially occupied by the Germans, as General Albert Kesselring respected its cultural significance. However, British Indian Army officers reported (apparently erroneously) that German troops had indeed occupied it, after which General Sir Harold Alexander ordered an aerial bombardment. However, no German troops were in the abbey at the time, the bombing only killed a couple hundred Italian civilians who had sought refuge there, and then paratroopers used the rubble for defensive cover.

In short, "whoops."

Having a California Republican as Speaker of the House makes as much sense as having a New York State Republican in that position. As in no sense whatsoever.

Nancy Pelosi is a fire breathing leftist. Where is our equivalent?

If he's on his way to official business, a congressman can pretty much do whatever he wants and not get arrested. It's literally in the constitution.

I believe Israel thinks a large number of the hostages are directly underneath some of the ground they're holding right now; maybe 200 - 300 feet underground, in prepared bunkers. They seem to think they can get to them without killing them all, but it's slow going.

We should consider taking in residents of Gaza after every single member of the OIC (Organization of Islamic Cooperation) (57 of them) put in writing, why they will not accept them.

After that, say, "Nah, we were only fooling around. If you don't want them then we don't either."

It's one thing to complain about Kevin McCarthy, but to cry to little Manu about it falls short of manhood. Timmy is searching for his victimhood; will you validate it?
