Congressional Fight Club: Big talk, bigger egos and all the hot air
WASHINGTON — Testosterone’s overflowing at the Capitol this week. But, even with Republicans talking tough, it’s still unclear if anyone can land a punch.
This morning, on the House side of the Capitol, former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) was accused of forcefully jabbing his elbow into the kidney of Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN), one of the eight Republicans who forced his ouster last month. Meanwhile, in the Senate, former MMA fighter and current freshman Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) challenged Teamster President Sean O’Brien to fisticuffs.
