Another GOP House member and McCarthy ally Rep. Ken Calvert (R-CA) said, referring to Boebert and those who support the resolution, "I think they've kind of gone rogue."

CNN reports:

McCarthy said Wednesday evening that the House will refer Boebert's impeachment resolution to the Homeland Security Committee, confirming CNN's earlier reporting on that approach. There will be a rule vote on the floor to make the referral to committee, allowing Republicans to diffuse the politically thorny issue for now, though internal party tension over the issue was on display for much of Wednesday.

"What majority do we want to be," McCarthy said to his GOP colleagues, asking, "Give it right back in two years or hold it for a decade and make real change?"

According to CNN, the Speaker "argued that Republicans should let committee investigations play out and warning that jumping to impeachment now could threaten their slim majority," adding, "House Republicans have taken back the House five times in the last 100 years, and two of those times lost the majority the next cycle."
