Several House Democrats have called on House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy to either apologise to House speaker, Nancy Pelosi, or resign. This, after audio surfaced of him saying at a weekend fundraiser that it would be "hard not to hit her" with a gavel if he is sworn in as speaker of the House.

The comment is emblematic of the rising tension between the two leaders since the January 6 insurrection. McCarthy and his team have been trying to put the blame on Pelosi, who earlier said the investigation into that insurrection would go without Republicans.
Last week, the two leaders even traded insults over CDC's new masking guidance.
Tensions between the two parties continue to rise, and have even moved beyond the insurrection to almost every political matter.
