In a closed-door meeting with his conference, hours after eight House Republicans united with Democrats to strip him of the gavel, the Californian signaled that he wanted to return home.

“I’m going to spend time with my family,” he said, though the remarks were largely drowned out by lawmakers’ shouting, according to Republicans familiar with the meeting.

“I might have been given a bad break, but I’m still the luckiest man alive,” he told them.

Oops there's already a thread on this. My bad.

Just another victim of MAGA America, although he pretty much bought it on himself.

So will he now become a Fox “regular contributor?”

This "Ukraine comes first" UniParty Fuck was never going to help.

Seriously you need a better source.

Speaking with Fox's Bret Baier following a Politico report that he was weighing a congressional exit, McCarthy flatly said he was not leaving.

Politico had cited "two people familiar with matter" in its reporting that McCarthy would stay in his seat at least until a new speaker was chosen next week "in order to help the party steady itself after a seismic shakeup."
