[A]ccording to a report from Politico, McCarthy is reportedly plotting his revenge against the eight Republican lawmakers he believes betrayed him. The outlet reported:Does Kevin McCarthy care about saving the country? Why not use "McCarthy's extensive 'donor network' to target" DEMOCRAT candidates?A top McCarthy ally, Brian O. Walsh, is overseeing an attempt to recruit primary challengers to take on members of the infamous “Gaetz Eight” — the Capitol’s nickname for Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) and seven Republicans who supported his fire-McCarthy push — according to six people familiar with the plans who were granted anonymity to discuss them.This will reportedly involve leveraging McCarthy's extensive "donor network" to target candidates such as Gaetz with strong, well-funded primary challenges. “These traitors chose to side with Nancy Pelosi, AOC and over 200 Democrats to undermine the institution, their fellow Republicans and a duly elected Speaker,” Walsh was quoted as saying. “There must be consequences for that decision.”
