Florida GOP Rep. Gaetz Threatens to Oust House Speaker McCarthy as Republicans Split Over Funding Bill
x

Florida GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz has once again threatened to remove House Speaker Kevin McCarthy from his position, citing alleged violations of a deal struck in January. Gaetz has been vocal about his distrust of McCarthy and has been calling for a vote to remove him. The House recently passed a continuing resolution to fund the government at current levels until mid-November, with a majority of Democrats supporting the measure.

McCarthy defended his decision to bring the bill to the floor, stating that he wanted to prioritize the needs of the American public. The passage of the bill has ignited further criticism from conservative Republicans, leading to Gaetz's call for McCarthy's removal. If Gaetz follows through with his motion to vacate, it remains uncertain whether McCarthy will have enough support to retain his position.
