Incoming Republican Rep. Anna Paulina Luna Says House Member Threatened Her for Not Supporting Kevin McCarthy (VIDEO)
Incoming Republican lawmaker Anna Paulina Luna from Florida is not a Kevin McCarthy supporter.
Rep-Elect Paulina Luna told Steve Bannon on Friday that she received a threatening call from a member of Congress because she would not commit to endorsing McCarthy for House Speaker.
Vote for Kevin, or else!
Newsweek reported:
Republican Representative-elect Anna Paulina Luna has said she was threatened by another member of the House of Representatives because of her opposition to electing House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy as speaker.
Luna spoke to Steve Bannon, former adviser to former President Donald Trump about an “inappropriate” phone call she had received from a female member of the House in a video shared to Twitter on Friday by PatriotTakes, which describes itself as “researchers monitoring and exposing right-wing extremism.”
The recently elected congresswoman will be sworn in on January 3 when the new Republican majority will attempt to elect the next speaker. McCarthy is facing stiff opposition to his bid for the speakership from within his own party.
