Kevin McCarthy is controlled by a handful of dangerous right wing conspiracy crazies

Opinion echo in Bakersfield.com:  Kevin McCarthy's deal with the conspiracy coalition is back door treason.  

High-level politics is fundamentally about deal making. You can’t succeed as anything more than a back-bencher if you aren’t willing to make a deal with almost anyone on almost anything. In Faust, a deal with the devil is fatal; on Capitol Hill, it’s how Kevin McCarthy intends to survive.

(Maine Writer- So, just think about it?  Speaker McCarthy is second in line to the presidency!  In other words, the devils that control Speaker McCarthy are in an overt conspiracy to take over the White House!)

In the popular Broadway play "Damn Yankees," a spirited older Yankee fan approximately the same age of Kevin McCarthy made a pact with the devil. The deal made with the devil was he would forgo his integrity, pledging to do the work of the devil in exchange for a return to his youth (temporarily) to play for and lead the Yankees to a wining season. A season, Yankee fans could could brag about, and a winning season eventfully resulting in a game with the pennant on the line.

Our own McCarthy made the same devilish deal, not with the devil, but radical rebels which were hold-out House members trying to deny McCarthy the speakership. A unified caucus of Pro-Trump zealots believing in election lies and supporting Jan. 6 rioters. Individuals inherently disappointed with democracy. Individuals which would prefer abandoning the ballot box, and worked for disenfranchising voters preferring an authoritarian government led by Trump.

The one huge takeaway from the mid-terms is Americans resoundingly denounced election deniers and voted against the GOP push to marginalize minorities. McCarthy, unable to win the House speakership on his own merits, made the devil-inspired deal as portrayed in "Damn Yankees." He surrendered his integrity and offered plum committee assignments to get the holdouts on board.

McCarthy surrendered so much, Rep. Matt Geatz (a rebel holdout) said. There was no more stuff to be asked for. McCarthy dealt away tradition, history and nearly three centuries of speaker integrity to achieve his quest. An extremely hollowed-out title sans all respect.
