Gaetz and McCarthy Clash at RNC
News summary

Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy suggested Rep. Matt Gaetz was 'on something' after Gaetz interrupted his CNN interview at the Republican National Convention, calling Gaetz 'unhinged' and expressing hope that he 'gets the help that he needs.' This confrontation is part of their long-standing feud, which intensified after Gaetz led the effort to oust McCarthy from his speakership. McCarthy also referenced past allegations against Gaetz involving drugs and sex trafficking with minors, which Gaetz has denied and for which he was not charged following a DOJ investigation. Gaetz dismissed McCarthy's insinuations, saying he was 'on something—the stage' at the RNC. The clash underscores the ongoing tension within the Republican Party as it heads into the final day of the convention.
