I am ‘Very Unhappy’ With Kevin McCarthy

Rep. said. Nancy Mace (R-SC) said he was “very disappointed” in the House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), amid calls for his removal by hard-right Republicans.

Mace appears on Fox News’ America Reports where anchor John Roberts asked, “Are you happy with the job Speaker McCarthy is doing?”

“I’d say, I’d put me in the category of extreme disappointment,” replied Mace, continuing:

I don’t like feeling like I’ve been misled or lied to on certain pieces of legislation. I’ve worked very hard to present a road map and a path for women, for Republican women, how we can move forward and win women from the inner city next year. I have worked on several pieces of legislation that have fallen on deaf ears, ignored, regardless of the promises made to me by the leadership. So, put me in the very sad column today.

Mace recently called on MAGA Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) to “put his money where his mouth is” and frankly file a motion to remove McCarthy from the speakership, as he had threatened to do.

McCarthy reportedly dared his opponents in a closed-door meeting last week, “If you want to file a motion to vacate, then file the fucking motion.”

The hill reported that Mace did not rule out supporting a revolt against McCarthy, saying, “Everything is on the table.”

Mace told Roberts, “I think it’s 50-50 whether it happens or not,” regarding a government shutdown if McCarthy and hardline Republicans can’t agree on federal spending.

“Democrats and Republicans put us in this place,” Mace continued. “Our debt stands at $33 trillion today. That forgery of a debt agreement three months ago will add nearly $20 trillion to the debt over the next 10 years. And so, if neither side is willing to address the problem, the spending problem we have now, we’re just going to get the same thing we’ve always gotten: just spending our children’s future into oblivion and we can’t afford to do that.”
