According to another source familiar, while in the bathroom, Greene asked Boebert, “You were OK taking millions of dollars from McCarthy but you refuse to vote for him for Speaker, Lauren?”

The first source said Greene was in a stall and, upon coming out, confronted Boebert about taking money from McCarthy for her re-election and then turning against McCarthy when it came time to vote. The Colorado Republican was allegedly unaware that Greene was also in the bathroom at the time.

“That’s when Lauren said, ‘Don’t be ugly,’” the first source said, before she—in the words of this source—“ran out like a little schoolgirl.” …

At least one other member is alleged to have witnessed the exchange: Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-MI). But over the course of three interviews with three different Daily Beast reporters, Dingell would not say what she saw.

“What happens in the ladies room stays in the ladies room,” Dingell said.

[True? Maybe. Entertaining? Briefly. Lasting damage? We’ll see, but the split between the two has been curious during the Speaker negotiations. It’s likely a tempest in a teapot at this point, to the extent this is accurate at all, but you can be sure that it will pop up in analyses from time to time. I found this at the New York Post, so it’s getting plenty of coverage. — Ed]
