"All right, all right – everybody settle down. We’ve got reports that Republican Rep. Kevin McCarthy elbowed one of his colleagues in the kidney while walking the halls of Congress this week.
We also watched video of Republican Sen. Markwayne Mullin of Oklahoma trying to get a witness in a Senate hearing to stand up and fight him.
As the presiding officer of the Office of Congressional Fisticuffs, it’s clear I need to remind lawmakers on the Republican side of the aisle that there are rules around here, and those rules are meant to be followed".
