He's Done - McCarthy Notified After Allegedly Hitting Fellow Republican

Hey ladies and gentlemen this is Carmine Sabia for Explain America and former

house speaker for like five minutes Kevin McCarthy. He just got really bad

news and he could be he could be done. Before we get started please make sure

you like, comment, share and subscribe. Those little things really help us out

and they help our channel continue to grow. So just yesterday Kevin McCarthy

was accused of hitting a fellow lawmaker Tim Burchett, a Republican, one of the

ones who voted for him to be removed as speaker. Now if you watched our video

yesterday the lawmaker described the attack he called the attack by Kevin

McCarthy. Later on in the evening a reporter who was present confirmed what

she witnessed to CNN and according to her it looked like it was McCarthy who

intentionally elbowed Tim Burchett as he was walking in the hallway. And she

explained why it was unlikely that it was an accident because yes there's a

narrow hallway but everybody knows to make room for everybody and that's what

was done when McCarthy was coming by. But McCarthy, well he's facing something

more serious. Let's take a look. Moments ago former Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy spoke and addressed the

accusations from Congressman Burchett that he elbowed him in the back. Let's

listen. Not elbowed, I would not hit him in a kidney. HC5, you're all down there right? Not a very big hallway. So I'm walking

out. You could talk to Bruce Westman because I actually called him after you guys reported something. I said did I hit somebody? Bruce Westman and I were walking out. I guess

the reporter was interviewing Burchett or something. I guess our shoulders hit

because Burchett runs up to me and I didn't know what he was talking about. Some reporters asked me. I did not run and hit the guy. I did not kidney punch him. I did

not shoot anything like that. You didn't shove him. No, we're walking through. You're at

HC5 right? You guys line up along the way there. It was Bruce Westman and I

walking out. He must have been interviewing someone. I didn't know it was him or something. I guess our elbows hit as I walked by. I didn't punch anybody. I guess it happened

because when I was walking back further, I don't see somebody was interviewing there

talking to me and he comes running up like why did you hit me or something like that

I said I don't know what you're talking about. I didn't even know something transpired. But reporters are witnesses that it looked like you there was plenty of room for you to

walk and then you intentionally hit him. There is. Okay, not a place. Show me a

reporter who saw that. Asked. Okay, well, ask Bruce Westerman. No, I did not go up

If I hit if I would hit somebody, they would know I hit him. He said he said he said he

was in pain that you hit him so hard. Come on now. That's awful

Matt Katzinger wrote that you pushed him twice while he was in Congress in the chamber

When have I pushed him? Katzinger said he was in the back railing once and you elbowed

him and pushed him. She said Gates. Katzinger. No, I don't know. I don't know about Katzinger

Congressman Gates, though, is filing or committing submitting some plaint to the

ethics committee over this this issue. Do you have any response to Congressman Gates

No, I think ethics is a good place for Gates to be. So I mean, Bertrand said that you're the kind of guy, this is his words

as a kid would throw a rock and then go hide under his mom's skirt. That was his exact words

What's your response to that? It's just bad luck between you and Bertrand

Now, you see, he's as arrogant as ever, but an ethics complaint is a legitimately big deal

You know, McCarthy has been falling apart since losing the speakership, and it's a shame

because he was a good lawmaker and, you know, a staunch conservative, a Trump guy when

it benefited him. And now it's just like his whole world has crashed and fallen apart

and he's he's allowed Matt Gates to literally destroy him. I don't know what's happening with

him, but he needs to get his head, I don't know, back on straight. I want to know what you guys

think. Please let me know in the comments. Also, please remember to like, share and subscribe

It really helps us out. I'm Carmine Sabia. This is Explain America. We love you guys

God bless you. Take care, everybody
