A National Public Radio reporter on Tuesday tweeted that she saw Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Cal., shove Rep. Tim Burchett, R-Tenn., from behind.

“Have NEVER seen this on Capitol Hill,” Claudia Grisales tweeted. “McCarthy shoved Burchett. Burchett lunged towards me. I thought it was a joke, it was not. And a chase ensued.”

Burchett was one of eight Republicans who voted to oust McCarthy as Speaker of the House.

Burchett alleged McCarthy came up and took a “cheap shot from behind” as the Tennessee Republican spoke with reporters, Fox News reported. “It was deliberate. It was just a cheap shot by a bully.”

Grisales said Burchett chased down McCarthy.

“Hey Kevin, why’d you walk behind me and elbow me in the back?” she tweeted.

“I didn’t elbow you in the back,” she said McCarthy replied. Burchett said: “You got no guts, you did so.”

Burchett told CNN that McCarthy is “the type of guy that, when you’re a kid would throw a rock over the fence, and run home and hide behind his momma’s skirt.”
