I mean, they're all shit, but I found this part interesting:

McCarthy’s outside counsel earlier this week sent a cease and desist letter to the person soliciting influencers to bash Gaetz and claiming to be doing so on behalf of McCarthy, according to a copy of the letter obtained by CNN

Which to me, reads like Gaetz is setting up a social media false flag on McCarthy's side, which is an insane level to stoop to for pointless in-party infighting.

They literally are incapable of discussing the actual problem at hand and just bicker?

Cripes

The GOP has so utterly dedicated itself to obstructionism over fixing problems and actual conservative ideals they can't help but obstruct their own party attempts at proving they are competent and capable of governing.
