A House Republican believes one of Rep. Matt Gaetz's reasons for taking on House Speaker Kevin McCarthy is"not fair."

“The Ethics Committee is a captive vassal state of Washington’s uniparty leadership. They will never pressure me to back down," Gaetz said in a statement in response to Joyce's comments. “Matt is working with Eric Swalwell, but let me be very clear,” the speaker began, “Matt is upset about an ethics complaint. I don’t care what they threaten against me. I’m not gonna interject into an independent committee like ethics, and I’m not going to put Swalwell back on the intel committee. So, they can do whatever they want.”
