Kevin McCarthy Is The Poster Boy For the GOP's Identity Crisis

On November 9th, Rep. Andy Biggs broke major news on my TV show The Absolute Truth by pointing out Kevin McCarthy’s record of failure as a GOP leader — and by insisting that McCarthy did not automatically deserve to be House Speaker without a debate.

HOT TAKE:@RepAndyBiggsAZ says the Republican caucus should debate the future of leadership in the House, adding that a "Speaker McCarthy" should not be a foregone conclusion for a Republican majority.

Biggs rightly pointed out that Kevin McCarthy had flip-flopped on important issues like impeaching Joe Biden.

Rep. Biggs was soon joined in his public opposition to Kevin McCarthy by Bob Good (VA), Matt Gaetz (FL) and Ralph Norman (NC) and Matt Rosendale (MT). The full number who oppose McCarthy is said to be close to 20 congressmen.

Matt Gaetz, in particular, has been adamant that Kevin McCarthy has never had the necessary votes to become the next House Speaker.

The real Kevin McCarthy won’t take on Big Tech. He’ll work with them to censor conservatives like @RepBarryMoore. He should not be Speaker.

Kevin McCarthy’s response to these skeptics was to whine that Democrats could pick the House Speaker if they didn’t step back in line: “We have to speak as one voice. We will only be successful if we work together, or we’ll lose individually. This is very fragile — that we are the only stopgap for this Biden administration.”

He added: “And if we don’t do this right, the Democrats can take the majority. If we play games on the floor, the Democrats can end up picking who the Speaker is.”

The problem for Kevin McCarthy is that he’s never tried to be “a stopgap” against the Biden regime. It’s not that he tried and failed — it’s that he doesn’t even pretend very well. He can’t even get the optics right. In fact, on the same day that Kevin McCarthy promised to be the leader of a “stopgap” to the Biden regime, he sat down for dinner with Hunter Biden at the White House.

True story. You simply can’t make this stuff up. This is a headline from The Daily Mail today.

When McCarthy is not bringing his mother to dinner with Hunter Biden, he’s sabotaging Trump-aligned candidates in midterm elections.

Just ask Joe Kent.

Kevin McCarthy and the beltway establishment continues to bankroll RINO’s that voted for impeachment. Help our campaign send a message to the America Last RINO’s.

McCarthy also backed the same GOP congressmen who voted to impeach President Trump.

If Kevin McCarthy is a Republican, then why did he take money from FTX — the infamous Democrat funding machine pretending to be a crypto exchange?
