Matt Gaetz Flames Kevin McCarthy for Failed Revenge Plot
Matt Gaetz mocked Kevin McCarthy after beating off a challenger backed by the former House speaker in the GOP primary election for Florida’s 1st Congressional District.
Rep. Gaetz (R-Fla) was targeted by McCarthy in his so-called “Revenge Tour” following last year’s mutiny by House Republicans to remove him as speaker.
GOP challenger Aaron Dimmock, a retired naval officer, was backed by $3 million from a political action committee (PAC) linked to McCarthy.
