Appearing with Maria Bartiromo, California Representative Kevin McCarthy discusses the opportunities and challenges for the republican caucus as his own effort to become Speaker of the House is impeded by conservative republicans in legislature.
McCarthy notes a conversation last week with Joe Biden and the upcoming reauthorization for defense spending that will likely remove the COVID vaccine mandate. Additionally, McCarthy discusses the removal of Adam Schiff from the HPSCI and how that removal connects to the latest revelations about people within the intelligence community who purposefully lied about the Hunter Biden laptop in order to interfere in the 2020 election.

With 222 republicans, a five-seat majority in the House, what options do they have except to elect McCarthy as Speaker?
The use of male “hair product” is always a tell. Take, for example, Gavino Newssolini, Mittens and Roosterhead.
They’re all prettied up fpr their next in-the-bag promotions. Sickening.
In-the-bag or is that in-the-barrel?
Interesting take, no doubt true. Grey headed men with dyed mustaches & eyebrows is a tell tale as well.
I don’t understand. Tell tale of what? I’m really trying to understand how ad hominem helps understand the real problem and what’s at stake.
I support Trump despite his elaborate hairstyle. Ad hominem attacks don’t advance ideas.
…A case of narcissism & self promotion and enrichment rather than true love of country and patriotism. Thx.
“Gavino Newssolini” I almost spit Caeser salad on the computer!
Me too 🙂 I am stealing it for future use.
Maria Bartiromo, Mark Levin and a few others still on Fox who think they can offer listeners an honest critique are deluding themselves so they do not ask the necessary hard questions and demand straight answers.
Right! I used to watch Maria because I felt she tried to ask and get answers to hard questions, but was continually disappointed so I quit watching.
The guest will talk around the question, change the subject or just run out the clock. I think the just have too many guests with limited time for each so it’s easy to run out the clock. If the had just one or two guest and stated we need a complete answer to two or three critical issues then it might be more interesting
she also has a boss & on a short lease.
These people are rats! It would take far more cash payout from Fox to buy THE TRUTH and the rats wouldn’t show up anyway. It’s entertainment talk anyway; good for “the game”.
Yes or No questions & NO deviations.
Haven’t watched any Fox Funnies since October 2020, only clips Newsmax may show.
You identified the reason for my choice.
Nothing Kevin says or does is to ever be believed. Especially when attempting to secure the speakership.
Kev is a knob.
Does it really matter? The economy is going to collapse and the GOP Congress will be blamed. I would rather it all burn under the Dems watch and control. Let the resistence and uprisings begin.
McCarthy is a politician, he held the primary before the new people came to town to solidify his position. He is a POS. He is not to be trusted, he will see US out at the first opportunity to gain more power. TERM LIMITS.
Understand he’s been in politics since he was 20.
Regardless of how long, get these sycophants out & elect some worker-bees!
Then get them off the stage before corruption runs them as well.
McCarthy said that those who lied to the American people should have their security clearances revoked. McCarthy is also a proven liar. By his own standards he should resign from the Congress after having his security clearances revoked..
McCarthy is spouting off on all the hot topics the Republicans will remedy as soon as he becomes speaker. Echoing in my ears are the Republicans’ lies – vote for us and we’ll abolish Obamacare.
We all know that as soon as McCarthy gets the power he seeks all his promises will disappear completely. I’ve watched this ‘movie’ enough times and I already know how it ends.
The problem is that GOP negotiate with Democrats who commit treason.
GOP are quite capable of their own treason
McCarthy will backstab MAGA as soon as he is Speaker.
Yep, Kevin “The Swamp Speaker” McCarthy is no different than having a democrat speaker
I say to the Freedom Caucus…… LET HER RIP!
I don’t think so. No way he waits that long.
Oh, boy! How true!
Notice he didn’t say he would read it, or that he ever had read it.
How about just abiding by it? How about enforcing the laws that are on the books, like our immigration laws that they have ignored for years now.
Amazing, isn’t it.
🇺🇸⭐️🇺🇸⭐️🇺🇸⭐️
Don’t bother, Kevin.
The Constitution is not a prop for you to fool the rubes.
It is a promise that lives in the hearts of America’s patriots–something you know nothing of.
“Patriotism having become one of our topicks, Dr. Johnson suddenly uttered, in a strong determined tone, an apophthegm, at which many will start: ‘Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel.’ But let it be considered, that he did not mean a real and generous love of our country, but that pretended patriotism which so many, in all ages and countries, have made a cloak for self-interest.”–Boswell’s ‘Life of Johnson’.
He meant you, Kevin.
Like an epitaph?
“McCarthy as Speaker” … It couldn’t have work out better for RINOs if they had planned it this way. 😤
I just want a party that represents me. Is that so much to ask…?
Yes, as long as people keep getting rings in their noses & letting the Commies yank the ropes.
Lockdowns.
Vaxes.
Illegal immigration.
Funding foreign wars.
Inflation.
Mail-in balloting en masse.
Child molesters. (MAPs!)
We’re in that wire canoe without a paddle, on Fecal Creek.
Just a younger version of McConnell.
No thanks.
Yep, Mc Lutzarthy just doesn’t have the turkey neck or the turtle head yet. But in all other aspects you are correct.
McCarthy doesn’t operate with nearly the shrewdness of McConnell. Both are bland messengers of UniParty politics who side with RINO Republicans for power and influence.
2 party system is problematic enough. Uniparty system masquerading as a 2 party system is beyond problematic. Why do we continue to play along with this? Where has it gotten us? We still are headed off the cliff riding in the GOP clown car, just at a slower rate of speed.
I wouldn’t encourage anyone to join the military right now. Not until things are sorted.
I also think that anyone who had their exemption turned down should make them kick you out or just get out. Experimental and deadly shots for “their national security”.
The people who run our country hate all of us and don’t give two craps about Americans.
Only Ukraine, vote rigging, having an open border, importing slaves, sodomization, and cavitating what’s left of the middle class and their families matters to the Uniparty Transpublicans and Demoncrats.
Got to keep them wages low and their one true god economic growth satiated.
I agree with all you said, except I believe their true god is Satan.
Pretty close to the same thing.
Agree 100%.
Just ask yourself,
do you trust McCarthy to move the ball forward on anything that does not directly benefit the RINOs?
I don’t.
Elect McCarthy, and watch him destroy the freedom caucus by any means necessary.
Honestly, It is sickening. This manadate was never a medical issue, and this political mandate will be removed by a deal between a Totalitarian-RINO and a Totalitarian-Fool.
There can be no political deals on public health! I am fed up with citizens being bullied and brokered by Totalitarians. And the scheming RINO is patting himself on the back over the shrewd deal that he cut with a Totalitarian Fool.
This RINO will lead discussions with the Democrats to return to “Corruption as Normal.” As this comment began, it is sickening1
Wise to remember that the virus & vaccine information is labeled as truth, because that is the result of not allowing dissenting views.
Crimes against humanity in progress!
If McCarthy doesn’t commit to impeaching Biden day one, then he shouldn’t be elected speaker. Period.
Gosh, Kevin got the Big Guy to let him have something! A pause in enforcing the vaccine mandate, for the military only, with an agreement not to say anything about other federal employees/agencies or the ruined lives of people (military and otherwise) who insisted that they were independent persons and not biological playthings of the regime.
We have to make sure McCarthy becomes speaker. It’s the only way we can get a responsible court-packing plan and a balanced federal takeover of elections with remote-controlled ballots through the House. Let’s not forget the need for moderate gun registration, common-sense transgender rights, and reform of Section 230 to ensure that a neutral federal agency oversees social media.
Kevin never said what he is trading for this end to the mandate. Why not?
If this traitor gets elected HS you can write off any real gains from an already weak showing in the mid terms. And you can bet that Walker won’t be evening up the senate with a win in Georgia. Time to see the real picture.
He looks like a rat.
Hard to stomach these creeps, the uniparty in action. McCarthy and Fake Luntz, what a pair. All is money and power. I am surrounded by Democrats in my neighborhood. They all love Fetterman and Raphael Warnock. None of then could recognize a fact if it hit them in the face.
I knew in the nineties this country was full of commies.
Me thinks the name’s been misspelled: WARLOCK.
Kevin doesn’t have the votes to be the Speaker. He’s not even close. Too many Reps in the House don’t think he is capable of doing the job. The only way he could win is if the Democrats vote for him. That would guarantee that the GOP would oppose him in everything that he does for the rest of the session. He lives with Frank Luntz. Paul Ryan and Kevin are making deals, to oppose Trump among other things. He has few friends out there because he is simply not good enough for the job at hand.
What about Trump Jr calling out Republicans who are against McCarthy?
ALL experimenting on our military needs to stop….No super soldiers.
Not to distract from the main points, but my abacus says 222 would be a 9-seat majority, not 5 (435-222=213; 222-213=9.)
Hey Kevin…Go home to mommy!
Frank Luntz’s roommate is useless as hell. “We have to come together…be ready on January 3…or none of this (changes) will take place…” I think where the House has to “come together” is to elect a Speaker that’s not stupid / corrupt / Frank’s roommate. He makes my skin crawl but it’s not surprising that the lowest caliber of whatever is in his position. He’s easy to push and pull around.
I’d love to know why Frank Luntz, and thus his roommate Kevin McCarthy, has a sound proofed replica of the Oval Office in his basement. Article from 2020.

Think it is time for Atlas to shrug.
I think it boils down to the GOP being played by the Dems who fully intend to continue their agenda with the uncomprehending blinkered assent of the GOP majority. IMHO
Oh, they’re not being played.
This is how they play.
Will “likely” remove the Covid vaccine mandate… right….
I am late to the discussion here. But oh, my Kevin McCarthy chills me to the bone. He is going waggle his jaw with promises, promises, promises and then when he gets the Speaker role, he will most likely, and suddenly, start channeling Pelosi, sans the skirt.
Used french fry grease oozes from this man. He’s a party man. Did I miss something? Or did he utter a word about what he was going to do for the American people? I didn’t think so. What a sham. Everything’s about party for him.
Another snake slithering through the swamp. Disgusting.
Enough of McCarthy!
Too much bed-hopping with the lice who seized elections & are destroying freedoms!
Is this the best in the Republican view out of 300,000,000+ people?
Sick!
Is McCarthy gay?
Russ Vought, former budget director in the Trump admin, says each party votes for their own speaker-if a dem wants to vote for a repub then the dem has to CHANGE PARTIES.
McCarthy and his fellow cohorts in the chamber of corruption will do absolutely nothing to reverse the course of the globalist agenda. Give him credit, he is a very articulate wordsmith and very convincing. The path he will follow will assuredly be the same path this country is on. McCarthy is master at deception. Just like his treasonous predecessor Paul RINO.
With 222 republicans, a five-seat majority in the House, what options do they have except to elect McCarthy as Speaker?
Thank you for pointing this out, Sundance. I won’t forget the warnings issued by MTG and some others. The entire House elects the new Speaker, the Dems get to vote too. That slim majority means 4 cranky RINOs could side with Dems to elect someone else.
Whatever. There is NO DIFFERENCE btwn McCarthy and any other Democrat . period. MTG is a huge disappointment. I notice she was allowed to win her race with no problems. Right there is a sign that she is compromised and not really MAGA at all. She runs her mouth but what has she EVER accomplished. I’ll wait.
You are exaggerating. There is a huge difference between McCarthy and Dems. For one, McCarthy didn’t vote to impeach Trump in 2019 or 2021.
I think you don’t understand the problem with choosing a Speaker. The GOP alone doesn’t vote for the Speaker, the entire House does. With such a slim majority it would be possible for the Dems to convince 4 GOP Representatives to choose a Dem Speaker. Yes it could actually happen. Prior to a Trump rally MTG explained the situation very well. She gets it.
Poor elites! If this fails they may have no choice but to reinstitute the draft. It will be fun watching the era of Viet Nam in the streets return.
Can’t watch that POS.
Pull security clearances from all who signed that letter, as soon as every new member has been swore in! They have NO need for them. Does Hillary still have hers? Holder? Comey? Plus hundreds more. Time for a better grip on who has info on what.
I don’t believe McCarthy will be a Newt Gingrich.
It’s the California in him that makes it hard to believe.
I hope I am wrong but….
So couple thoughts: Mike Turner talking as if Schiff will remain on committees is in conflict with McCarthy’s talking points of Schiff being ousted.
The “concession,” and what will be hailed as a “triumph” for the Republicans, is getting Biden to back down on an unconstitutional mandate of a clot shot?
“Shirley you can’t be serious?
I Am serious, and quit calling me Shirley.”
The 5 firm holdouts are doing what they can to force McCathy to be as much of a fighter as possible. They will hopefully negotiate their way into committee heads or at least force him to get rid of some of the ones who think their roles are in stone. Cleaning house is a long process.
They need to stop covid mRNA injections IMMEDIATELY. No ifs, ands, or buts.
Anything less than this is shirking your duty to protect Americans.
