ISO the actual complaint, haven't had a chance to look for it yet.

I haven't seen a link yet, but heard on CNN that Matt Gaetz has filed some kind of complaint against McCarthy over this latest kerfuffle.

Two Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee have recommended the Justice Department look at pursuing charges against former Trump attorney Michael Cohen for contradictory testimony he gave last month in former President Trump’s fraud trial in New York.

The criminal referral letter — sent by House Intelligence Chair Mike Turner (R-Ohio) and committee member Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) — accuses Cohen of committing perjury and having “knowingly made false statements” before the congressional panel four years ago.

“That Mr. Cohen was willing to openly and brazenly state at trial that he lied to Congress on this specific issue is startling,” the referral letter reads. “His willingness to make such a statement alone should necessitate an investigation.”
While it urges prosecutors to take action, a criminal referral is largely symbolic and does not hold any legal weight. The Hill has reached out to Cohen’s lawyer for comment.

Amid cross-examination by Trump’s legal team late last month, Cohen testified that he lied under oath to the House Intelligence Committee in February 2019 when asked about the former president’s personal financial statements during a deposition.

In that 2019 testimony, the former president’s longtime lawyer and fixer said Trump did not ask him to inflate the numbers detailed in his statements of financial condition — documents that detail the value of the Trump Organization’s various assets.

I'm monitoring c-span. Ten amendments, all being voted down, to defund woke stuff from Labor, HHS, and Education. Then we get to the CR. Jeffers says Dems are in. Needs 2/3rds majority,

Fun to watch MAGA calling out Johnson as a rino on SM.

Methinks the lady doth protest too much.
Charlie Kirk @charliekirk11 wrote: The plot thickens. Kevin McCarthy denies delivering a "clean shot to the kidneys" on Rep. Tim Burchett as alleged payback over Speakership ouster:

"I guess our shoulders hit. I did not run and hit the guy. I did not kidney punch him."
Kinzinger also has some accusations of McCarthy pushing/elbowing him, according to the video.
