Rep. Ken Buck (R-CO) suggested to CNN that former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) was lying about not elbowing Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN).
Said Buck: “Kevin McCarthy and lying are like peanut butter and jelly.”
He added: “He doesn’t hold any leadership position now. He is a rank-and-file Congressman like me, and it’s got to be upsetting to him.
And so he took it out, in the way he took it out, and now he denies it.”
