Description
For the first time in history, a Speaker of the House was ousted.
Yesterday, Kevin McCarthy’s tumultuous time as Speaker came to an end
after every Democrat joined Rep. Matt Gaetz and seven others voted to
take away his gavel. Rep. Patrick McHenry is serving as temporary
Speaker and McCarthy has confirmed he will not run again, but beyond
that, not much is clear as the territory is entirely uncharted.
