Video: Chip Roy Melts Down After Being Called Out For Voting In Support Of McCarthy – Sounds Like The Daily Screeching DeSantis Shills On X SPACES
Republican Representative Chip Roy lashed out at his colleagues over their efforts to terminate Kevin McCarthy’s role as House speaker.
Eight Republicans, led by the efforts of Representative Matt Gaetz, joined House Democrats to oust McCarthy by a vote of 216-210 on Tuesday. The motion to vacate was filed by Gaetz, of Florida, on Monday after months of brewing tensions in the House GOP, which came to a head after McCarthy’s deal with Democrats over the weekend to narrowly avoid a government shutdown. Gaetz and other hardline Republicans demanded budget cuts but McCarthy instead backed the 45-day deal. The removal of McCarthy, a historic first, comes as Congress has just over a month to figure out a long-term federal budget.
Roy announced he would be voting against the motion on social media before Congress sealed McCarthy’s fate, explaining his decision in a series of posts on X, formerly Twitter, that he disagrees with the “tactical play call.”
While speaking with Steve Deace of The Blaze, the Texas Republican took aim at the “MAGA camp” over the vote, saying the “speaker reflects the Republican conference.”
“Some of our brothers and sisters—particularly in the, you know, MAGA camp, I think— particularly enjoy the circular firing squad,” Roy said, before rebuffing critics who referred to him as a Republican In Name Only (RINO). “You want to come at me and call me a RINO? You can kiss my a**.”

Mark Van der Veen offers some of the most analytical and insightful writings on politics. He regularly opines on the motives and political calculations of politicians and candidates, and whether or not their strategy will work. Van der Veen offers a contrast to many on this list by sticking mainly to a fact-based style of writing that is generally combative with opposing ideologies.
I’m glad McCarthy was voted out. He was another pathetic fake leader. The republican party is still infested with RINO’s and i believe it’s intentional.
