In a tense day on Capitol Hill, Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) was accused of punching Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.), while Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.) had a tense exchange with the leader of the Teamsters during a hearing. “There’s a level of decorum that just doesn’t exist like it once did,” said NBC News Correspondent Ryan Nobles.

#KevinMcCarthy #Congress #Fighting
RINOS showing their true selves
Defendant tRump did a beautiful job of exposing how these rich, white men are nothing more than a bunch of cowards and crooks. Something a lot of us already knew.
And elbowing Matt Gaetz! 😂 what a guy McCarthy! Can you imagine how the citizens feel?????? Yah they are that angry also
Toxic masculinity. 😡
Two of my favorite lawmakers to watch and learn from this is troublesome.
United States senator is a criminal.
😅😆😂🤣😂😅
Bernie try to teach these children how to behave. 😂
NBC once again cut the full clip and adds no context.
So sad they have to use theatrics to get ratings. Because everyone has wised up to their BS.
WTH are we turning into!?!?
What a joke 😂 grow up
Poor, sweet, sensible Bernie. Still trying to do good.
Children, stop acting like children.
Disgusting behaviors.
The GQP is no longer a viable political party! Terroristic politics.
Good Grief — Correct me if im wrong: Is this America ???
🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵
*THIS WORLD WILL SOON END.* Not the planet, wicked society. All human governments will soon be destroyed during Armageddon and replaced. Christ and his 144,000 kings will rule over the earth 🌎 Read Revelation 5.10 ✌🏽️ Byee YouTube! 👋🏼 Nothing in this system of things will exist in God’s Kingdom when established on earth. (Da 2.44)
They genderswapped the house speaker.
Probably a karate chop
The anchor looks like he’s loving it. Which is exactly the response these morons hope for.
Could of been a big strap on
😂😂😂😂😂😂 Rinos airing it out
IRS getting there, traitors gotta go
Lock this republicans up
First, it was a nudge with the elbow, now it’s a punch? The media is fkng pathetic.
Funny how it goes from an accidental bump into punching somebody! Lol
Even their own party hates them.
Let them fight amongst themselves.
Meanwhile, in real news, over 7 million illegals have invaded the USA at the southern border.
It’s a Republican break in decorum. Stop lumping in the democrats with your generalizations.
Did the reporter say decorum….so typical of the media, just an extension of the corrupt, slimy, lying Democrats. No coverage of the corrupt FBI, Justice Department, CIA and now the Secret Service. Walter Cronkite is rolling over in his grave.
We are doomed as an empire. That’s our president and these are our statesmen!!!😢😢😢
Broken. Dysfunctional. Childishness. US Republicans add to their repertoire… of reasons why such a dysfunctional Party ought to run such a dysfunctional Nation.
LOL, Very ironic a Socialist complains about a Senators behavior, but brings this slug witness that’s been kicked out of the Union and vows to restore MOB BEHAVIOR in the Teamsters. SMH
Science,technology ,young people, trending population and ghost towns will put the GOP out of business for good 😊
Markwayne Mullin–a trailer trash name if ever there was one.
Bernie is a civil human being. Too liberal yes but at least he’s not wishy washy and he’s still civilized.
Someone need file complaint against kevin mcthug , bullying others , enforce ridiculous ideals .. no ethics .. reason I gave kevin his nickname because I frequently witnessed his bullying tactics almost everyday .. even in debates , votings etc . He would deny anythjnf but videos doesn’t lie
Lawmakers have immunity from misdemeanor charges in DC. They passed that law themselves! Truth.
Apparantly mccarthy has a reputation for sneak physical attacks
So many people in power are not professional. When people gave you power, they believed in you, they wanted you to do a good job. Do your job, act professional.
The “C” in NBC is for candeeass.
I guess when you still have roommates and get into fist fights you really are still a child.
Ryan, I am going to break the first news of your hair loss and the fact that you have never went to see Bosley.
Preschool…….😅
No U gitch yo buttup.
No U gitch yo buttup.
No U gitch yo buttup.
No U gitch yo buttup.
No U gitch yo buttup.
No U gitch yo buttup.
No U gitch yo buttup.
No U gitch yo buttup.
No U gitch yo buttup.
Siddown, clowns!
Let them, they do nothing anyway, mind is well they entertained. Soft kittys thin skinned hot heads, liars corrupt lazy COWARS and most all BIAS.
THANKS Mr Bernie for been the only adult in there.
MAGA. Also known as the toddler caucus.😂
The MAGA GOP is dysfunctional, delusional and divided, therefore they cannot govern! A pathetic excuse for a legitimate political party!
How low can these GOPs go!!! All they know is to abuse their authority. The question is why they become such spineless cowards in front of Donald Duck?
Kevin McCarthy so mean he should wear a dress
never cared much for spineless weasel McCarthy, but I’ll give him a thumbs up for this. Maybe its time we stopped embarrassing ourselves and Tennessee by stop voting for bigoted, little minded, hate filled, knuckle draggers who have no desire to do anything to help the citizens, but only themselves and their culture war crap.
It was NOT a punch, as he walked by he hit him with his elbow. Please stop exaggerating… next week it will he threw a knife at him FFS. This is why no one trust the MSM.
as if you needed anymore proof that the republican party has been taken over by the white trash
It is about time someone stand up to the thugs that run the Teamsters.
This country is a circus & is run by incompetent clowns.
Rich, spoiled brats acting like little kids on an elementary school playground recess. Must have taken lessons from the ‘squad’ women for immature behavior.
I watched Lakers in Taiwan fist fight on the floor of their government, now Republican lawmakers devolved into hate and conflict tied to ideocracy. Never ever vote GOP again.
These aren’t adults, they’re 10th graders.
Typical right wing ignoramus brute
Way back when some of us used to laugh at fights breaking out in Asian governments, now it’s here, very sad but not surprising, politicians are just as back alley as the next guy and no amount of suits and fancy clothes can cover or hide what they are at their core. All veils are being lifted.
Yep it’s called Truth 😂
Reps couldn’t fight kittens and win… a union guy!.. sit down su
Congress ETHICS GO MAGA 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😮🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Fighting in parliment was once exclusive to Banana Republics. The Republicans have gone Bananas. Vote Fielding Melish for President.
So immature.
Kindergarten.
Poor Kevin McCarthy he’s a loser and he wants revenge LOL
Why are Republicans constantly physically fighting, now days? This behavior is getting ridiculous.
Thugs…, in suits an ties.
People acting like a bunch of meat head thugs who can’t solve problems using their brains.
He didn’t punch anyone 😂
Teamsters leader thug
I say get rid of McCarthy and give Tim all his 17 million and security
That’s the “face” of disgusting MAGA politics created by the MAGA cult leader, supported by MAGA lackeys, and watched by the whole world! WHAT A SHAME!
First it was elbowing, now it’s punching…..come on news stations get it right!!!
Cowardly Kevin…
McCarthy is a rhino and we all know it. That’s why he’s out. People like Tim Burton are rocksolid human being. And he’s just not gonna put up with it. Tim Burton fights for the people in Tennessee and has been for years. Shame on you McCarty you’re a piece of garbage why don’t you go hang out with your demos rats
Stand your butt up. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Shame on you kevin picking on the crybaby wimp oh wait matts coming to the wimps rescue
McCarthy is upset for losing speaker job but if he hadn’t been kissing butt with Biden he still have his job
McCarthy has become regather pathetic…
Americans demand more clean bills…
Jerry
Jerry
Jerry
Sad stuff
I can’t take the MAGA Republicans anymore.
PUNCHING “”” I thought it was an elbow shame on your lying evil butts NBC.
Let’s put it this way. In the old NBA that wouldn’t have even been a foul, but in today’s NBA it would be an ejection. lol
McCarthy has shown the world that Matt Gaetz was 100% correct in what he done, Gaetz got rid of a Rino Spoofer and it hurts McCarthy because he was found out in Public. No amount of Interviews with the Liberal Media will change that. It was a simple enough process, McCarthy made promises he didn’t keep so get off the stage and well done Matt Gaetz. Mr Burchett is an honest man, his intergrity is intact.
Babble babble babble. Who cares what you think, you’re just maga. Absolutely no credibility in the entire movement. lol
Love it! I didn’t think McCarthy had the guts to punch anybody! He didn’t have the guts to stand up for Republicans! Glad he’s gone?
This goes to show the world on who side the Republican Party is on and its NOT OURS, its putins and chinas.
Shame on you all,pathetic little men!
bring out the tape ,
Hahaha yeaaaaa.
My God this nation is being run by unintelligent children
Not punching, “elbowing” Gosh!
NO Video? I could wait for someone to walk by me and say “dang, why did you spit at me?” Burchett saw an opportunity, knew there would be no video, just his word, and acted like McCarthy shoved, hit, punched or kidney punched him…. there has been so many stories now. Show us the video, or sthu, and YOU should be brought up on ethics charges for lying Burchett. If you show me a video of this happening, I will go to bat for you against McCarthy, until them it’s just a story.
MY Favorite president got in over a hundred duels, Andrew Jackson, and killed a man too. So violence and politicians isn’t new. Jackson did a lot of bad things, but I like that he had courage and believed in defending yourself.
Gop are kids
Holy eye bags Batman.
I can’t believe this is a story. I can’t believe this clown calls himself a journalist. I can’t believe that people are so feeble-minded they actually believe this story. I’m not sure I could have a conversation with someone that believes this story.
This is the trickle down effect of the MAGA Administration.
Love you Kevin
This why we need to vet everyone running for office. Bekfore they are given the oath.
