“If you’re going to be in a fight, you want Marjorie in your foxhole,' McCarthy told the New York Times.
McCarthy avoided publicly criticizing Greene, choosing instead to have private conversations she referred to as "visits to the principal's office."
McCarthy reportedly took a lesson from former speakers Paul Ryan and John Boehner, deciding it was better to work with the far-right than alienate them. One noteworthy example: McCarthy's chief counsel worked for hours to try to overturn Twitter's ban on Greene's personal account in 2022. A tipping point for their relationship was when former Rep. Devin Nunes told Greene that McCarthy yelled at Democratic House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer over her removal from committees in 2021.“If you’re going to be in a fight, you want Marjorie in your foxhole ... When she picks a fight, she’s going to fight until the fight’s over. She reminds me of my friends from high school, that we’re going to stick together all the way through.
