Things are becoming maybe more than just a little bit heated inside the House GOP’s private meeting while they try to get a resolution empowering Speaker pro tempore Patrick McHenry to the floor, as Axios’s Juliegrace Brufke reports Kevin McCarthy “screamed at Matt Gaetz to sit down when he went to the mics, with the source saying [Illinois Congressman Mike] Bost ‘almost lunging at him.'” Brufke added that McCarthy was advocating for the McHenry plan.
Leaving the Republican conference meeting, a “deflated” looking Wisconsin Congressman Mike Gallagher told CNN’s Haley Talbot he was “going up to the chapel to pray the rosary.”
