"Kevin McCarthy's Ousting: A Historic Moment in the House"

In an unprecedented move, Speaker Kevin McCarthy was voted out of his position by hard-right conservatives, throwing the House and Republican leadership into chaos. McCarthy announced that he would not run again for speaker, leaving the position up for grabs. The next steps are uncertain, with no clear successor to lead the House Republican majority. McCarthy's ouster was fueled by growing grievances, including his decision to work with Democrats to keep the government open. The vote to remove McCarthy was 216-210, with eight Republican detractors forcing him out. The House is now on recess until next week when Republicans will attempt to elect a new speaker.
