McCarthy Says Gaetz 'Belongs in Jail' Amid Ongoing Feud

The tension escalates as Gaetz calls for an ethics investigation into McCarthy following assault allegations.

Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and Rep. Matt Gaetz continue their public feud, with McCarthy stating in an interview that Gaetz 'belongs in jail'.
McCarthy's comment is believed to be in reference to the ongoing House Ethics Committee investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct and misuse of funding by Gaetz.
Gaetz responded to McCarthy's comment by referring to recent allegations that McCarthy assaulted Rep. Tim Burchett, stating 'tough words from a guy who sucker punches people in the back'.
The tension between the two escalated after Gaetz led a motion to vacate against McCarthy in October, which resulted in McCarthy's removal as House Speaker.
Gaetz called for a House ethics investigation into McCarthy after the alleged assault of Burchett.
