As Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) launches his rebellion against House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), multiple reports indicate that House Republicans are looking to get rid of the Florida congressman altogether.

According to a report from CNN, an unnamed House Republican said that the caucus wants Gaetz gone — and that they may use the findings from the ongoing Ethics Committee investigation into the Florida congressman to oust him.

I’ll believe that when I see it. The GOP never hold their own accountable, no matter how awful or obvious the crime.

The absolute furthest they will go, and only when given no other choice, is “we investigated ourselves and decided there was no wrongdoing.”

They might if it's not really about the crime. They may turn on him simply because they think he's becoming a liability.
