Kevin McCarthy\u2019s (R-CA) bid to become the new House Speaker.<\/p>\n<p>The Republicans who are blocking McCarthy\u2019s bid included Reps. Dan Bishop (NC), Lauren Boebert (CO), Byron Donalds (FL), Josh Brecheen (OK), Mike Cloud (TX), Andrew Clyde (GA), Eli Crane (AZ), Matt Gaetz (FL), Bob Good (VA), Paul Gosar (AZ), Andy Harris (MD), Anna Paulina Luna (FL), Mary Miller (IL), Ralph Norman (SC), Andy Ogles (TN), Scott Perry (PA), Matt Rosendale (MT), Chip Roy (TX), Keith Self (TX), and Andy Biggs (AZ).<\/p>\n<p>Crenshaw spoke to reporters and outlined his views on the 20 Republicans. \u201cI\u2019m tired of your stupid platitudes that some consultant told you to say on the campaign trail, alright.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBehind closed doors tell us what you actually want, or shut the f**** up,\u201d He said. \u201cThey need to be men and adults and say what they want, instead of playing these little games, that\u2019s what we\u2019re asking.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s what I\u2019ve asked them. Some of them are my friends. Stop saying platitudes like, \u2018Washington is broken. We can\u2019t do the status quo,\u2019\u201d He went on. \u201cThey want to pull the pins on the grenades and lock the doors.\u201d<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\u201cThey want to pull the pins on the grenades and lock the doors,\u201d He spoke highly of the effort.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Dylan Wells (@dylanewells) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/dylanewells\/status\/1610701402707312654?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 4, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think the 20 holdouts are continuing to show themselves to be unbelievably unserious. Now they\u2019re just choosing random people. They don\u2019t have a plan. It\u2019s almost like they want to make the point that they don\u2019t have a plan,\u201d He went on. \u201cThey have zero ability to articulate what they want that would cause them to vote yes. It is utterly confusing, and then they get mad at us for criticizing, it\u2019s actually quite hilarious the self-victimization that occurs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Crenshaw later gave a fiery interview on Fox News Radio with host Guy Benson where he called out the 20 Republicans\u2019 lack of preparation and planning for the alternative they were willing to back instead of McCarthy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey had no plan. They have some list of demands that mostly have been met,\u201d He said. \u201cThey basically closed all the doors and pulled the pins on the grenades and are staring at each other like, what the hell do we do? Everyone is trying to work with them in good faith to give them an offramp, because this is a terrible situation for them personally. They are responsible for holding up a GOP agenda. They could be responsible for Democrats pulling some really clever deals, maybe forcing a plurality vote, maybe potentially getting a rules package the Democrats want.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThen they insulted Donald Trump. Did you hear that part earlier?\u201d Crenshaw stated. \u201cLauren Boebert, and you know, because she\u2019s really served this country, so she gets up and she basically tells Donald Trump to eff off. That\u2019s what she just did. I couldn\u2019t believe it. I mean, I just couldn\u2019t believe it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Crenshaw was asked if he thought that nominating another Speaker candidate would alter the dynamic. This is why \u201cwe can\u2019t give in.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd so those of us who are standing against this, we\u2019re standing for principle. They are standing for notoriety,\u201d He said. \u201cThey\u2019re standing for that extra news because nobody ever cares about them and they\u2019re frustrated by that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said that the 20 Republicans have pushed everyone else into a corner, which has galvanized all the other Republicans\u2019 support for McCarthy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo now we\u2019re saying we won\u2019t vote for anyone but McCarthy. That\u2019s why we\u2019re saying it, because we cannot let the terrorists win,\u201d He said. \u201cThat\u2019s basically what\u2019s happening.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Crenshaw was an ex-Navy Seal and later faced backlash from conservatives and Republicans who thought he was crazy for comparing the 20 Republicans to \u201cterrorists.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a figure of speech. People need to lighten up and grow some f***ing thick skin,\u201d He said. \u201cThat\u2019s what I think about that. I am so sick of like these hurt feelings. I already got criticized earlier because I called them something else. You know what? You step into the octagon, be ready to get punched in the face.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rep.
