JUST IN: Rep. Matt Gaetz Files Ethics Complaint Against Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy After He Lashed Out and Sucker-Punched Rep. Tim Burchett

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), who led the charge on removing Kevin McCarthy as Speaker of the House, has filed an ethics complaint against McCarthy after he reportedly assaulted Rep. Tim Burchett.

As the Gateway Pundit previously reported, Andy Biggs of Arizona, Ken Buck of Colorado, Tim Burchett of Tennessee, Eli Crane of Arizona, Matt Gaetz of Florida, Bob Good of Virginia, Nancy Mace of South Carolina, and Matt Rosendale of Montana got fed up with McCarthy selling out to Democrats and decided America needed a new Speaker.

But McCarthy would not go quietly. Gaetz and Mace also revealed that McCarthy was working behind the scenes to derail any potential candidate for Speaker, including Jim Jordan, arguably the most popular Republican in Congress.

Now, drama in the House of Representatives today, as McCarthy apparently elbowed Congressman Burchett in the back with a “clean shot to the kidneys,” says Burchett. Burchett later told reporters, “He’s a bully with a $17 million security detail.”

McCarthy should go ahead and switch parties. He sold out to lobbyists, knowingly lied in making the promises to the Republican caucus of what he would do if elected Speaker, and now this. He would be a perfect Dem.

A kidney punch can be very dangerous to your health. A kidney is an organ that has little protection and can be easily damaged.

Is there some reason Burchett can't take care of this himself?

Congressmen are above the law. Cattle futures illegal trading is legal for them as well as insider trading. What’s a little assault charge? Only the little people get charged for assault.
