“Hhayi-ke, sisaqhubeka nokukhuluma, kodwa abakanyakazi,” kusho uMcCarthy etshela umsakazi oqavile uHugh Hewitt. “Futhi ubunzima lapha ukuthi uyazi, yithina kuphela inhlangano yaseRiphabhlikhi emisa abaphathi beBiden.

UMcCarthy uchithe amahora evale iminyango exoxisana ngoxhaxha lwemithetho efunwa yiqembu eliqinile ukuze enze buthaka ubukhulumi nokunika amalungu alo amandla.
UMcCarthy usayine ukuzimisela kokugoba kwezinye zezicelo zabo ezibalulekile, kodwa akakavumi ukuvumela ilungu ngalinye ukuthi licele ivoti lixosha isikhulumi esihleli – okuwumgogodla wezimfuno zabaholi abaqinile i-California Republican esaziphikisa kuze kube manje. .
UMcCarthy nabambisene nabo bakholelwa ukuthi bazokwazi ukunqoba abagxeki ngaphambi kwevoti langoJanuwari 3, kodwa abagxeki bathi bazimisele ukuhlehlisa isicelo sikaSomlomo futhi bathole umuntu omusha ozongenela ukhetho oluncane lwe-House GOP.

NgoLwesihlanu, uMcCarthy ungene emsakazweni ephikisana nabaphikisi besabisa ngokubeka yonke i-ajenda ye-House Republican engcupheni, exwayisa ngokuthi izinqumo eziyisisekelo mayelana nokushaya umthetho nokuphenya “zonke zizoba sengozini” – njengokuthola ikomidi elisha elikhethiwe eChina futhi. egijima. UMcCarthy angakwazi kuphela ukulahlekelwa amavoti amane e-GOP ngoJanuwari 3, kucatshangwa ukuthi wonke amalungu akhona futhi avotela ilungu elithile.
“Ngikholwa ukuthi lokhu kuwukuwina kwamaDemocrats,” kusho uMcCarthy mayelana ne-GOP ephikisana nesicelo sakhe. “Bahlezi emuva, ngeke sikuvumele lokho kwenzeke. Yithina kuphela abantu abami endleleni yokumisa inqubomgomo embi yeDemokhrasi.”
UMcCarthy uthe ukwenqaba kwabo ukungena emkhunjini kulimaza nekhono lakhe lokuqala ukuqasha abantu abasha abazongenela ukhetho ngo-2024, ephakamisa ukuthi ukulwa kukaSomlomo kungase kuphazamise amathuba e-GOP okugcina iningi labo nezihlalo ezingama-222.
“Akugcini nje ngokubambezeleka lokho,” kusho uMcCarthy ngokuqasha abantu abazongenela i-GOP. “Kulungiselelwa ukuthi kungagcini ngokuvikela iningi, kodwa kukhulise iningi.”
Isexwayiso esibi sikaMcCarthy siza njengoba amalungu amahlanu e-GOP – uGaetz, Reps. Andy Biggs wase-Arizona, uRalph Norman waseNingizimu Carolina, uBob Good waseVirginia noMatt Rosendale waseMontana – bexwayise ngokuthi bangavota njengeqembu ngoJanuwari 3, okusho ukuthi’ bonke bazovota ngendlela efanayo.
UBiggs, othole amavoti angu-31 ngesikhathi ehlulwa yi-GOP esikhundleni sokuba nguSomlomo ebhekene noMcCarthy ngenyanga edlule, utshele i-CNN ukuthi “akakhohlisi” futhi uhlela ukungenela isikhundla sikaSomlomo uma iNdlu ivotela ngenyanga ezayo. Abagxeki bathi bangaphezulu kakhulu kwamahlanu amaRepublicans aphikisana nesicelo sikaMcCarthy futhi abakaphumeleli ukuphumela obala ngokuma kwabo.
Uma uMcCarthy engawatholi amavoti angu-218 ngoJanuwari 3, iNdlu izoqhubeka nokuvota kuze kube yilapho umuntu ethola amavoti – into engakaze yenzeke kusukela ngo-1923.
“Khumbula, unyaka kamongameli lona, ngakho-ke unezinyanga eziningi nje zokuthi uphume futhi ubuse,” kusho uMcCarthy. “Futhi ufuna ukushaya phansi ngonyawo. Nsuku zonke ulahlekelwa, uma ulahlekelwa ikota, awuqali ngamandla. Ukuze ungatholi amakhandidethi amasha, aqinile. Awuzitholi izinsiza ezengeziwe ukuze ukwazi ukuhlinzeka labo bantu ukuze ukhiphe umlayezo.”
