I think the stopgap budget deal is the *pretext* to get rid of him.

Funding for #Ukraine was notably left out of the spending bill and now who knows how long it will take for the House to get its shit together.

SO, I think the timing of Gaetz's motion to oust was also about interrupting support to #Ukraine. Too many Rs are tangled up with russia. Too much money funneled to the Right through the NRA. 

I'd be happy to be wrong, but I just don't buy that #Putin isn't a player here. 

 @aec6444a That sounds right and I hadn't even considered it. Thank you for pointing that out.
