On Monday, Rep. Matt Gaetz filed a motion to vacate the speakership for several reasons, but most recently, McCarthy made a separate deal with Democrats and lied to Republicans.
Most talking heads on TV support Kevin McCarthy, mostly because we could get a lot worse and don’t have the numbers to get someone conservative in place.
In a lengthy statement, Levin accused Gaetz of “plotting and scheming with the radical Democrats” to remove McCarthy.
“Yes, that is correct. The guy who says McCarthy is the Democrats’ speaker is plotting and scheming with the radical Democrats to take out a Republican speaker who is more conservative than he is (McCarthy backed the Freedom Caucus CR and the cuts and border security, which Gaetz and 4 others killed),” Levin noted.
Levin also noted the ongoing ethics investigation that could potentially lead to Gaetz’s expulsion from the House.
“There are now numerous reports that Gaetz is doing this not because he insists that McCarthy interfered with an ethics investigation of him, which a speaker cannot do and has never done,” Levin added. “I might add that after two years, it’s about time the Ethics Committee release its report and either lift the cloud over Gaetz or clear him. Gaetz should demand this as well.”
Mark Levin said that McCarthy is more conservative than Matt Gaetz. Heritage gives McCarthy a 78% score with a lifetime score of 53%. They give Matt Gaetz 84% with a 90% lifetime score. The American Conservative Union gave him a score of 89%, while they gave McCarthy 86%. Freedom Works gives Mr. Gaetz 86.8% and 80% this session. They gave McCarthy 70.1% and a score this session of 80%. Conservative Review gave Gaetz 84% and McCarthy 54%.
NOT EVERYONE AGREES WITH MARK
Some people are raging over his stance on the war, but on this issue, some have fact-checked him.
You’re destroying yourself Mark. Factually incorrect. The senate had appropriations bills ‘on their desk’ waiting for action that would have funded majority of gov. Why aren’t you mad at the senate? You need to take a step back and reassess your position. HR2 was performative.

Wow Mark really, I’m about to give up on you. Also it wasn’t 4 but 21 Republicans that voted against H. R. 5860. Also McCarthy is not more conservative then Matt. McCarthy seems to side to much with Democrats. Maybe you should quit trying to tear Matt down and see what we see…

Whenever it really matters, Mark Levin can be counted on to say something really stupid. https://t.co/lim1XhRUYy

Levin claims Rep. Gaetz and his allies sabotaged a good deal.
As I explained over and over last week, Matt Gaetz and the 4 other clowns undermined the Freedom Caucus and all conservatives when they sabotaged an 8 percent cut in Domestic spending and strong border control measures. They rant and rave without a plan and without a real…

Mark has joined the Faux smear crowd. I quit Faux, Levin and Hannity many years ago. It was the only reason I kept Dish Network as long as I did. They are paid (very well, I might add) opposition. Sad ending to a once trusted network, Faux. Joined CNN now….
I was done with Mark after the last “election”. He is all talk and zero action. Why isn’t he helping Judicial Watch or similar group?
I think Rush would be very, very disappointed in him. The “Great One” has fallen.
Maybe Rush would have been disappointed. I listened to Rush for years and still have nearly two decades of his podcasts on my computer.
Do you remember Rush saying he was “America’s Truth Detector?”
When the scam-demic started I was surprised when “America’s Truth Detector” would not and did not tell the truth about the masks. His comment was, “I’m not going to tell anyone whether they should wear a mask or not” (paraphrasing)
I believe Rush did a great service for America, He defined conservatism. He helped the creator of this site to realize she was a conservative and not a lefty.
As I learned more I found it interesting the way he talked about the Bush family, almost with reverence. I couldn’t help but wonder if he new more than he was telling or worse yet, I wondered if he feared them? Just wondering.
I suspect I never would have wondered had he not made that comment so many times about detecting truth. I do miss him.
I’m a fan of Mark’s but I must say that I find him to be highly compromised. He still appears on the totally-discredited (and disliked by true conservatives) Fox News, and in fact, has ADDED a program on Saturdays now! Also he says he doesn’t write ( and aggressively peddle) his books for himself, no, “I write them for you” he says. OK Mark – then why don’t you donate all of your latest book earnings to your favorite charity or conservative cause and buy some credibility. Staying on Fux discredits you
Levin’s first priority is to sell books. Speaking the truth is a distant second.
They are both Republicans, members of the Party of stupid. Reason enough to get rid of both of them put them in cells with the Party of Evil members.
Those of us on the Right simply want to restore the government to its Constitutional role. You on the Left are simply evil. There is no other word for it.
