💥 McCarthy: Will NOT RUN Again 💥
4 videos • 1 views • by Breaking News Today Kevin McCarthy told fellow House Republicans he will not run again for Speaker of the House after he was ousted earlier Tuesday, according to a GOP lawmaker. The House will now need to elect a new speaker — and the White House is calling on the GOP to do so quickly — but there is no clear alternative who would have the support needed to win the gavel. In the meantime, Rep. Patrick McHenry of North Carolina is the interim speaker. No House speaker has ever before been ousted through the passage of a resolution to remove them. The fight over the speakership marks a major escalation in tensions for a House GOP conference that has been mired in infighting — and it comes just days after McCarthy successfully engineered a last-minute bipartisan effort to avert a government shutdown #Shorts, #KevinMcCarthyQuit, #KevingMcCarthyWontRun, #HouseSpeaker, #GOPLeadership, #HouseRepublicans, #SpeakerOfTheHouse, #PatrickMcHenry, #SpeakerElection, #HouseResolution, #GovernmentShutdown, #BipartisanEffort, #HouseGOP, #GOPConference, #HouseLeadership, #PoliticalTensions, #HouseMajority, #CongressionalDrama, #LeadershipChange, #WhiteHouseCall, #KevinMcCarthyResignation, #USPolitics
