Late in the day on Tuesday, the MI House Republican Caucus, under the leadership of Speaker Jason Wentworth and House Caucus Chair Matt Hall, has expelled the popular conservative MI State Representative Matt Maddock.
ALERT: Michigan state Rep. Matt Maddock, a Trump loyalist and husband of Michigan GOP Co-Chair, has been kicked out of the House GOP caucus for allegedly violating caucus rules, according to sources familiar with decision.
House Speaker Jason Wentworth and House Speaker wanna-be Matt Hall put the couple on notice-do it our way-or we will strip you of any power or influence, and we'll publicly shame you in front of fellow lawmakers.
It's worth noting that House Speaker Wentworth, who is term-limited, and House Speaker wanna-be Matt Hall are keenly aware that by stripping one of the most popular grassroots lawmakers in Lansing from the House Caucus, they can also prevent the Trump-endorsed Maddock from running for Speaker in 2022.
Speaker Wentworth and Caucus Chair Hall may have overplayed their hand this time as their scheme is relatively transparent and will likely cause Maddock to become even more popular with members of the House after they realized the dirty tactics employed by Wentworth and Hall in an attempt to take Maddock out of the running for Speaker.
State Rep. Matt Maddocks House GOP website has been completely stripped of content after he was booted from the caucus today pic.
Maddock's expulsion from the House Caucus means he can no longer communicate with other members of the MI GOP about upcoming bills or any other issues on a private caucus thread. Maddock's name was also removed from the MI GOP House website.
