House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) was reportedly caught on a hot mic Tuesday fuming over Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) and announcing that he’s “had it” with the number three Republican, whose critique of former President Donald Trump has stood in the way of advancing the alternate reality his party is pushing.

“I think she’s got real problems,” McCarthy reportedly told Fox News’ Steve Doocy ahead of a “Fox and Friends” interview on Tuesday, according to a copy of off-air tape from the morning interview that Axios snagged.

“I’ve had it with … I’ve had it with her. You know, I’ve lost confidence. … Well, someone just has to bring a motion, but I assume that will probably take place,” he reportedly added.

The off-air frankness came as McCarthy publicly put forward a drastically pared down version of his posture when asked about the conference chair during the interview...............

1. McCarthy reminds me of the fawning Georgiy Malenkov in his stupid Stalin suit

Wonder if he'll survive the purge ahead...unlikely.

2. He supported her last vote, but not this time.

I’m not sure why republicans run their mouth all the time. She was clear that the election was fair. But she seems to want to say it everyday. Republicans always desire attention as well. Look at me me me has to be their motto for everyone of them.

3. republicans like McCarthy are acting like communist now,

Where nothing counts except what their leader wants. The truth is only what he wants , justice is only what he wants, and no one can oppose his ideas, and statements , and actions ,or face being attacked and punished. Sounds more every day like we're headed for putin's russia if they get full control again. The republican party is dead, and is now a extremist group , and is no longer conservative, or believe in our Democracy. McCarty and others are corrupt cowards too scared to stand up stopping him from poisoning our Democracy for putin. Numerous republicans I know are sick seeing this happen to their party, and are voting with the Democrats now against them.
