Democrats voted with a rebel Republican faction to oust Kevin McCarthy from his speaker role in the House of Representatives. Rep. Matt Gaetz (R.-Fla.) led the campaign to remove him from the leadership position, fueled by anger over his decision to work with Democrats to avoid a shutdown of the federal government. Rep. Patrick McHenry (R.-N.C.) is interim speaker until a new speaker is elected.
