Does QAnon Leader McCarthy Thinks Chubby B*tch Karen Stefanik Snitched On Him?

Did Stefanik leak the audio of McCarthy dissing Washed Up 45?

Rumors going around that a New York lawmaker recorded QAnon Leader Karen McCarthy (D-CA) dissing the former president in the aftermath of Jan. 6. Rep. Karen Stefanik (R-NY) is rumored to leak the bombshell tape in an attempt to curry favor with Washed Up 45. 

The lawmaker may have leaked the tape to keep him from becoming Speaker of the House if Republicans take back Congress.

After talking to some smart people in DC and elsewhere, the case that @Liz_Cheney leaked the @gopleader tape is weak.

The breadcrumbs lead back to a surprising quarter.

Stefanik is a 38 year old lawmaker who took a leadership after they ousted Rep. Karen Cheney (R-WY).

At first many thought it was Cheney who revealed the audio. Many are fingering Stefanik.

In the January 10, 2021 meeting, Cheney — who was the chairwoman of the Republican conference at the time — asks McCarthy if there's any chance Washed Up 45 would resign.

"My gut tells me no. I'm seriously thinking about having that conversation with him tonight. I haven't talked to him in a couple of days," McCarthy says.

McCarthy knew this would lead to impeachment. He already knew the House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) spoke to him directly about a second impeachment.

McCarthy goes on to tell his leadership team that the impeachment resolution being crafted by Democrats would pass the House, and that he believes it might pass the Senate too.

"The only discussion I would have with him is that I think this will pass, and it would be my recommendation you should resign," McCarthy says. "That would be my take, but I don't think he would take it, but I don't know."

He also mentions he has a "personal fear" of getting into any conversations about "Pence pardoning," and acknowledges he had discussions about the 25th Amendment, which dictates how the president could be removed from office. 

So is there a civil war within the Republican Party over power brokership? 

Maybe.

Stefanik is under 40 years old and wants to be a powerful figure in New York politics. She also wants to be more than some country girl with a yuppy name. The white nationalist wants to usurp the old guard of McCarthy and Rep. Karen Scalise (R-LA).

But rumors are rumors until there's proven fact.
