GOP leader fails second attempt in 3 days to get House to disapprove impeachment inquiry

By Oliver Willis -

Kevin McCarthy is a leading Republican defender of Trump despite ongoing corruption revelations.

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy failed in his second attempt in three days to have the House of Representatives disapprove of the impeachment inquiry of Trump.

McCarthy attempted on Friday to introduce a motion in the House to disapprove of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi after she came out in favor of the inquiry.

Pelosi (D-CA) cited Trump's "betrayal of his oath of office, betrayal of our national security, and betrayal of the integrity of our elections" in supporting the inquiry.

Majority Leader Steny Hoyer objected to McCarthy's attempt to undermine the speaker and asked members to instead set aside, or table, McCarthy's action.

Hey Kevin can I call you Kevin, maybe you and the other enabling jerks should do this emoji when you stand at a podium............ ................because after all Pelosi is following the Constitution, what are you and your enabling other 183 doing, using it for toilet paper, that's what you are doing......................
