A combative House Speaker Kevin McCarthy on Thursday dared hard-right members of his Republican caucus to try to oust him amid mounting frustration and anger as the California Republican attempts to appease their demands to avert a government shutdown.
quote:
“You guys think I’m scared of a motion to vacate. Go f---ing ahead and do it. I’m not scared,” McCarthy told the House GOP caucus in a closed-door meeting Thursday morning, according to a lawmaker in attendance who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe the private remarks. Several lawmakers and aides recalled that McCarthy told lawmakers to move or file “a f---ing motion” to oust him.

File it, McCarthy needs to be gone…

He doesn't think they'll do it with a government shutdown coming. Can you imagine not having a Speaker during a shutdown burn it all down

more infighting, probably nothing to come of it

They should do both, oust and shutdown.

And the media would create the narrative that the country is collapsing due to the republican party. Fun times.

McCarthly is a slimeball... I asked during the votes and the 20 caving and what assurance there was they would get what they wanted.
"Ff they don't they can vacate him"
Well sounds like McCarthy knows they can't do shite, so he got what he wanted with no ramifications.
I guess the handful can get the Dems to vote with them to start the process and then it be a clusterfrick of re-voting again

Never needed to be "in" in the first place. I don't care who all I "like" that endorsed him, because I disagree with them on that and a myriad other issues/stances as well.
McCarthy has always been and always will be a controlled opposition stooge.

So for the people who want and love this particular brand of meaningless political theater, who exactly is it that you think will have the votes to replace McCarthy as Speaker?

Nobody and I really don't care... burn it all to the ground.
Bring Congress to a standstill.
