U.S. Rep Matt Gaetz (R-FL) is filing a formal ethics complaint against U.S. Rep Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) over the altercation with U.S. Rep Tim Burchett (R-TN) earlier today that was also witnessed by Claudia Griseles of NPR.

Gaetz, who described the attack as a "sucker punch" and "a clean shot to the kidney", said an immediate investigation by the Ethics Committee was necessary.

McCarthy downplayed the incident, saying he did not hit Burchett and that their shoulders "must have bumped" in passing.

Gaetz will be discussing the incident on his Firebrand show.

When someone is lying, their voice register goes up.
