Debt deal with Biden a ‘betrayal’ that could cost McCarthy speakership, House Freedom Caucus member says

Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, a key member the House Freedom Caucus (HFC), indicated Tuesday that if Republicans do not stop the debt deal in committee, that he would consider ousting Kevin McCarthy from leadership as House Speaker.

In an interview with Glenn Beck on “BlazeTV” Tuesday morning, Roy called the debt limit deal that McCarthy, R-Calif., struck over the weekend with the White House a “betrayal of the power-sharing arrangement that we put in place” – that is to say, the promises McCarthy made to the HFC to give him the votes needed to secure him the speakership after a 15-voting-round battle in January.
