Representative Matt Gaetz (R-FL) called for House Speaker Kevin McCarthy to explain his alleged deal with House Democrats to pass a continuing resolution and avoid a shutdown. Representatives Greg Landsman (D-OH) and Brendan Boyle (D-PA) join Andrea Mitchell to react to Gaetz’s remarks. “He’s a conflict entrepreneur. That’s what he does. It’s chaos and conflict so that he can be on TV when the vast majority of us want to govern,” Landsman says. Boyle adds, “I think it’s worth taking a step back and recognizing this is actually not just Matt Gaetz. There are about 20 or so very hardline, firebrand, self-described ‘MAGA conservatives’ who really have caused a great deal of dysfunction and have turned the House of Representatives under Republican rule into a circus. And Kevin McCarthy has done nothing but enable them.”

I'd like to know as a registered republican….why and who I can make make a motion for a member to vacate….if anyone knows please help me….these people are our employees….
How many outside the NY Civil courtroom today, protesting on behalf of Trump, have read the public-facing actual evidence presented by BOTH the defendant (& his legal team) AND the prosecutors?
How many have read the relevant "rule[s] of law"?
How many remember that this started with accusations asserted by Michael Cohen's testimony in Congressional hearings, and wasn't dreamt up by the NY A.G.?
How many realize Trump wasn't "forced" off the campaign trail, but elected to be present?
How many realize that the statute of limitations was impaired by the gap during which Trump's A.G. Barr applied an internal memo (as though it was law) which halted investigations during Trump's term in office?
Next time gaetz does TV, ask him about his new Spock-flavored eyebrows. I also want to know more about this adult male he adopted awhile back.
Thank you to matt gaetz and the caucus he our gov is so corrupt we need to find out how every single one of them gets dirty stinking rich ? Rt after they get in to congress ! Term limits are desperatly needed and they should not be the ones deciding their pay
These are very valuable info for anybody who wants to get rich. Unfortunately, most people who will watch this video will not really be able to apply the knowledge embedded in it. We may not want to admit, but as Warren Buffett once said, investing is like any other profession– it requires a certain level of expertise. No surprise that some people are losing a lot of money in the bear market, while others are making hundreds of thousands in profit. I just don't know how they do it. I've got $110k set aside to put in the market.
I'm not a Republican but enjoy Gaetz's feisty attitude. The Dims have all been lobotomized. No MORE MONEY for BIDEN'S WAR in UKRAINE!
Matt Gaetz's motion to remove Speaker McCarthy only makes sense if you see it in the context that it is in Russia's interest to block the deal about more support for Ukraine that McCarty has allegedly made with Biden, after MAGA succeeded in removing funding of Ukraine in the 45 days Budget. – It is well known that Trump and the Freedom Caucus are puppets funded by and in the pocket of Putin, and that Russia was behind Trump's rise to power. (Read the Mueller Report.) Follow the dark money! It's time to hold these corrupt, traitorous and unpatriotic GOP politicians criminally accountable!
Which does he like better – the spotlight or underage girls?
Gaetz has always been show boat clown. Taught MTG
I hope the dems, if they have a vote, vote to oust McCarthy. Without some serious concessions, vote yes to vacate.
Gaetz is a criminal.
Get all seditionsists out of our Congress. Create your own government maybe in Hungary.
Gretz wants a Putin paycheck if he already hasn’t received. He is a traitor to this country.
Seems dummicrats rather have McCarthy. Bends over easier. I guess
Tubberville for senate leader
That old saying,, "You can be Part of the Solution. OR Part of the Problem! You chose." We all know the choice Gaetz made.🤬🤬
👍👍👍👍. I was at a retirement seminar and the speaker spoke on how he quit his job after he made well over $950,000 PROFIT within 3months he invested $120,000. I just began investing and i will really appreciate any tips or helpful guide….
The Democrats and serious Republicans have an opportunity to end MAGA. Geatz has left his posterior exposed, and I hope there's enough support to give it a good kick.
at this point, the senate is the only functional part of congress. i think mccarthy left out ukraine and border security funding to tie them together cause that is the only way to get it through the house, and he will just let the senate negotiate the terms and present the same bipartisan bill that will be passed in the senate to be presented in the house. then he will tell his house colleagues that is the budget bill and to push it through despite the resistance that will come from the freedom caucus.
Are the Republicans having the majority and there is about to be a potential Democrat speaker?
Interesting.
That's like the mother of "Owning The Libs".
Well played, MAGA.
Gaetz has more integrity than any other representative. Watching these comments and the title of the videos shows me how out of touch the left is with everyone between new York and LA
Gaetz is god.
Seemed to work I’m glad I’m not as clueless as you all that’s why there isn’t even 300 comments
Yeah, lets throw billions more into Ukraine
Thank you Matt!!!!!! McCarthy had no feelings for Ashly Babbitt.
Matt Gaetz rules!…and the good people who supports his principles…not you lowlife media tramps. Go back and put on your mask and smoke your dope losers
This guy looks creepy
Govern? You haven’t governed in years….
Goetz is a narcissist. Not a conservative republican!!
Its called working across the aisle.
He was MAD Kevin worked w/Dems to passed bipartisan bills. So he worked w/Dems to OUST Kevin. Think about that Pathetic Logic! Just want to create chaos for the sake of creating chaos!
