Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.) accused Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) of openly detailing his sexual experiences to fellow lawmakers in a bonkers interview with CNN on Wednesday. (You can check out his comments in the clip below.)

“He bragged about how he would crush E.D. medicine and chase it with energy drinks so he could go all night. This is obviously before he got married,” Mullin told CNN’s Manu Raju.

Mullin, an ally of former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), made the wild claims about Gaetz after the Florida Republican ― and seven other members of his party ― joined all House Democrats in supporting the ouster of McCarthy from his post on Tuesday.

The move arrived after Gaetz filed a motion to vacate the California Republican from the speaker’s chair.

    It is. The ‘news’ is this is maybe the first time a republican has acknowledged it.

      And obviously in revenge for nuking the GOP conference in the House.

      Funny that betrayal of the Republican party elicits a bigger response than trying to overthrow the goddamn government.

        Not when overthrowing the government is the point.
