House GOP’s Private Meeting on Speaker Mess Devolves Into Pure Chaos: One congressman even left the meeting early to pray for an end to the madness.

"The meeting itself has already become the stuff of legend in the Capitol. It featured McCarthy reportedly yelling at Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), the ringleader of the coup which ousted him, and Rep. Mike Bost (R-IL) reportedly lunging at Gaetz. It featured lawmakers heatedly studying copies of the U.S. Constitution, even waving them in the air, as they debated their unprecedented situation. And plenty of yelling.

For some lawmakers, it was apparently too much. Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-WI), for instance, left the meeting early. He told reporters he needed to pray.”
