'Kiss my a**!' Chip Roy's HEATED rant over Matt Gaetz and Kevin McCarthy



Chip Roy is not pleased with his colleagues.

The Republican representative joins Steve Deace to lash out at the termination of Kevin McCarthy’s role as House speaker. Deace is also at his wits' end.

“I am paid to care; I don’t care. It’s getting harder to make me care. This is a joke, it’s rudderless, and it seems as if we want to sell each other talking points [rather] than actually produce any form of substantive victory,” Deace tells Roy.

The motion to vacate McCarthy’s position was filed by Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.), who joined House Democrats to oust McCarthy by a vote of 216-210 earlier this week.

Roy believes that some in the “MAGA camp” are enjoying “the circular firing squad.”

“I’ve spent a lifetime fighting for limited-government conservatism. I have laid it all on the line,” Roy tells Deace.

“You go around talking your big game and thumping your chest on Twitter, yeah, come to my office to come have a debate, mother. You know why? Because I’m standing up for this country every single day.”

Deace contends that Roy is not alone, adding, “I think that sums up the way a lot of people think, brother, I do. I just don’t think they know what to do instead.”

Roy is also quite unimpressed by the keyboard warriors who believe their tweets will turn America around for the better.

“If people want to play this out in real time, and deal with this every single minute and every single day on social media,” Roy notes, “Don’t think that that’s somehow going to change the game, because what we gotta do, is we have to actually define the fight.”

“Just don’t think that getting out on social media, that that’s somehow real,” he adds, “It ain't.”

Kevin McCarthy is OUT. Now what? Matt Gaetz explains what’s next.



Matt Gaetz, the Republican Florida congressman who led the ousting of House Rep. Kevin McCarthy, recently joined Jason Whitlock to discuss what’s next.

“The Bible tells us a lot about this, Jason,” he said. “In times where man is disoriented or when we've lost our way … people come forward with wisdom, with personal characteristics, and with a renewed sense of dedication, and there is divine Providence in all this.”

“I know that God's will will be done when we have a new speaker … someone who is really ready to help us lead the country and to be fighters for the tens of millions of Americans who rest all of their hope in the House of Representatives,” he told Jason.

Gaetz explained that we live in a world where “the Biden administration is turning against people and where the Senate is unreliable to put the people's interest first,” but that doesn’t mean we have no hope.

Sometimes hope comes in the form of turmoil, he explained.

“The establishment wants … calm waters all the time, they want everything to be nice and smooth, and then you won't realize that underneath the water, you know, bad stuff is going on, and there's a Chernobyl down there” that could “cause catastrophic impact.”

“I think sometimes you’ve got to have some turbulent water so that people wake up and say, ‘All right, what's going on here?’” he said.

People want to know what it’s “going to take to secure this border,” they want to know how the government plans to “[reduce] spending in order to save the dollar from losing its status as the global reserve currency,” and they want assurance that the country is not about to “sleepwalk into World War III with Russia,” he explained to Jason, who nodded along in agreement.

Matt hopes to get back to a place where “the people really lead and the people we call leaders – they follow the people.”

“So let's get the people engaged, informed, and at the table for the decision-making process,” he said.

Sounds great to us!

'I will do it if necessary': Trump says he'd be willing to temporarily serve as House speaker



Former President Donald Trump has said that he would be willing to take on the role of speaker of the House for a period of time if the GOP is unable to select another candidate to fill the slot, Fox News Digital has reported.

"I have been asked to speak as a unifier because I have so many friends in Congress," Trump told the outlet. "If they don’t get the vote, they have asked me if I would consider taking the speakership until they get somebody longer-term, because I am running for president."

"They have asked me if I would take it for a short period of time for the party, until they come to a conclusion — I'm not doing it because I want to — I will do it if necessary, should they not be able to make their decision," he noted, according to the outlet. Trump conveyed that if the GOP fails to arrive at a consensus, he would step in to the speakership role for a brief "30-, 60-, or 90-day period."

"I would only do it for the party," he noted, according to the outlet.

Earlier this week, after eight GOP lawmakers voted with Democrats to oust Republican Rep. Kevin McCarthy of California from the speakership, McCarthy announced that he will not seek the position again.

GOP Reps. Jim Jordan of Ohio and Steve Scalise of Louisiana have both thrown their hats into the ring to serve as the next speaker.

Trump is currently seeking the GOP presidential nomination, and according to polls, he is trouncing the rest of the Republican field.

"I've been contacted by multiple Members of Congress willing to support and offer nomination speeches for Donald J. Trump to be Speaker of the House. Next week is going to be HUGE," tweeted GOP Rep. Troy Nehls of Texas, who has previously suggested Trump for the role.

"I nominate Donald J. Trump for Speaker of the House," Nehls tweeted earlier this week.

But not all Republicans would support the idea of a Trump speakership. GOP Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky, who has already thrown his support behind Jordan, has rejected the idea of Trump as speaker.

"Trump was vehemently opposed to even having a recorded vote in the House on the $2+ trillion CARES Act. He supported Pelosi’s attempt to pass it by “unanimous consent,” without a quorum present. This disqualifies him from being Speaker," Massie tweeted.

The ONE question Mark Levin wants YOU to ask after House ousted McCarthy as Speaker

The ONE question Mark Levin wants YOU to ask after House ousted McCarthy as Speaker

THIS is the one question you should ask yourself following McCarthy's ousting



Rep. Kevin McCarthy was speaker of the House until yesterday. Now, he’s been ousted.

The move was supported by only eight Republicans and every Democrat, with Rep. Matt Gaetz leading the charge.

Now, Glenn Beck and Mark Levin are wondering if this was a smart decision.

“I know many people want to get behind Matt Gaetz. I am not one of them. So, I guess I’m a neocon, RINO sellout,” Levin says to Glenn Beck. “Look, you and I have spent decades fighting these wars. This is one of the dumbest-ass wars I’ve ever seen.”

Levin also notes that when the government spent an insane amount of money on COVID-19, Gaetz never spoke up.

“That was like $3 trillion right there. They wanted to spend $6 trillion, almost none of it went to 'COVID' or 'the pandemic.' It went to the teachers' unions and everything else,” he says.

“I am telling you that if you’re going to blow up the House, blow it up for the right reasons,” Levin continues.

Levin also warns that McCarthy’s ousting is letting “Democrats control the budget now.”

Glenn agrees.

“I’m not a fan of McCarthy. However, what is your plan now? You don’t run away from something; you run toward something. They weren’t running toward anything,” he says.

Neither Glenn nor Levin think there’s a very good plan in place.

“I’d love to see one. I mean, when Gaetz is asked who would he accept, he starts naming liberal members of the House. I’m going, ‘Holy crap.’ I don’t know what the plan is,” Levin says.

While House Republicans seem to have forgotten one of the most important reasons they do what they do, Levin hasn’t and urges Americans to remember it as well.

“The Democrat Party hates America.”
