US House Speaker forced out of office in a historic vote
Republican Kevin McCarthy has been forced out as Speaker of the US House of Representatives after a vote by lawmakers.
Lawmakers debated the leadership challenge, and voted 216 to 210 to oust him
McCarthy is the first Speaker in US history ever to be removed in this way after a motion to vacate Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz filed a formal motion on Monday to eject him, after months of infighting between McCarthy and his party’s right wing
All 208 Democrats present voted to remove McCarthy, along with eight Republicans.
His removal was sparked by a group of ultra-conservatives, led by Matt Gaetz, who were frustrated by McCarthy’s leadership.
It boiled over at the weekend when he struck a deal with Democrats to fund government agencies.
