Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said Tuesday that he would not give Democrats anything in exchange for their votes to help save his Speakership, after Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) moved to force a vote on ousting him.

“They haven’t asked for anything. I’m not going to provide anything,” McCarthy said in an interview on CNBC’s “Squawk Box.”

It’s such bull shit that the default is to not give democrats anything without even knowing what they are going to ask for. Doesn’t matter if it’s good for the citizens, just fuck them. Our political system is a fucking joke.
