CNN's Manu Raju seems shocked and concerned by the prospect that a GOP House majority would take a page straight from the Dems' playbook

Politico’s Olivia Beavers had a pretty shocking scoop about GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy (just look at those eye emojis!):

👀👀 GOP leader Kevin McCarthy tells Fox & Friends moments ago:

"I will promise you this: If we are fortunate enough to have the majority, Omar would not be serving on Foreign Affairs [Committee] or anybody that has an anti-semitic, anti American view."

We’re not actually sure what’s so shocking about McCarthy saying that a GOP-controlled House wouldn’t tolerate an anti-American, antisemitic bigot like Ilhan Omar on the Foreign Affairs Committee. But McCarthy’s statement has led CNN chief congressional correspondent Manu Raju to make a pretty bold prediction:

Dems’ move to strip Marjorie Taylor Greene will be cited by Rs to strip Dems like Omar and Swalwell of their committee assignments if GOP takes majority https://t.co/qPIVksQoh1

That’s why he gets paid the big bucks, ladies and gentlemen.

Who could have predicted that Democrats would be subjected to the precedents they create? pic.twitter.com/cr52nz5D8T https://t.co/UaK0OwZHIt

"Republicans are using the fact that they stripped an extremist of committee to strip another extremist of committee"

isn't the own you think it is.

It’s a pretty great self-own, though.

What Manu Raju appears to be telling us, albeit unintentionally, is that he has a problem with Republicans giving Democrats a taste of their own medicine — and thus, that he’s a partisan hack.

You say that like it's a bad thing

That’s how equal application of rules works

Fair is fair.

Yep! As it should be. Omar needs to go just like MTG.

— Lisa H Turnage (@LisaTurnage12) June 15, 2021

Omar is as bad as, if not worse, than MTG. Same for Tlaib. Swalwell on the other hand is a security risk. If you don’t trust me, ask Fang Fang. https://t.co/WXVuwVCspb

Manu Raju’s concern would carry a lot more weight if he’d applied it equally to House Democrats. But he didn’t.

As they should. Why shouldn’t the GOP do the same? If this bothers you than maybe you should have condemned Democrats but you didn’t.

He didn’t, and now he’s in store for a rude awakening.

Actions, consequences. It’s not like there was no warning on this.

Maybe one of these days, Manu and media, you’ll actually listen.
