Kevin McCarthy uses CNN appearance to drag up new Matt Gaetz sex scandal details

Former House speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) took advantage of an appearance on CNN’s “Inside Politics” on Sunday morning to take a shot at Rep. Matt Gaetz and bring up new allegations the Florida Republican has been accused of attending drug and sex parties with teenage girls by the young lady’s mother.

Speaking with CNN host Manu Raju on the anniversary of his being ousted as speaker — with Gaetz leading the charge — McCarthy insisted his Florida nemesis came after him because he wanted a probe into accusations he paid teen girls for sex to go away and the then-House speaker balked.

McCarthy made a point of noting the new allegations against Gaetz contained in a late-night legal filing last week.

“I’m not making any claims, I’m just saying somebody is sitting in jail for 11 years that was with him. They just had depositions that came out days before where a girl who is a junior in high school dropped off by her mother to a party with drugs and sex,” McCarthy explained.

“You have Venmo payments from Matt Gatez to her. You have emails from Matt Gaetz requesting that young girl to come back to the next party to the individuals who’s sitting in there [jail],” he elaborated. “I’ll let the courts and Ethics [Committee] decide that — but all the facts there lay out and I think young women deserve justice.”
