WATCH: Kevin McCarthy Makes Stunning Admission


Stunning but certainly not surprising. …

Many of those reading this know and understand that our ‘representatives’ don’t read through bills—how could they when bills are 5,000 pages long?

Lindsey Graham was embarrassed on-air by Fox News’ Jesse Watters when he told Watters that he was ‘unaware’ of a bill that he, himself, sponsored.

Now, House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy has joined Graham and confirmed what we already knew. …

McCarthy recently appeared on Fox News to tell Americans that he hasn’t seen or read 89% of the budget—that’s right folks, he is only familiar with 11% of it. …

The guy spearheading the debt ceiling negotiations has not read through 89% of the budget.

Meanwhile, most conservatives are railing against McCarthy and his proposed debt deal with Joe Biden.

Some in the GOP are even calling for his resignation or some way of removing him as the current party leader of the Republican Party.

Trending Politics shared a partial transcription of what McCarthy said on air when asked why he hasn’t read the entire budget:

“Because the president walled off all the others… the majority driver of the budget is mandatory spending,” McCarthy stated.

“It’s Medicare, so you only have 11% to look at this budget.”

 

The Hill explained the GOP position against McCarthy by sharing this statement from Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL):

“If a majority of Republicans are against a piece of legislation and you use Democrats to pass it, that would immediately be a black letter violation of the deal we had with McCarthy to allow his ascent to the Speakership, and it would likely trigger an immediate motion to vacate,” Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) said on Newsmax on Tuesday, referring to a move to oust McCarthy from the Speakership.
