Still, some republicans defended mccarthy. I think the speaker has kept his word. He is tireless. He has that uniquely american grit. This republican majority has exceeded all expectations. If this house of representatives has exceeded. All expectations. Then we definitely need Higher Expectations with the speaker removed. All business must stop an to a new speaker is selected.

One of the people watching all of it l analyst michael yaki. He says it is the first time in modern history. Something like this has happened simply because 2 parts of the Republican Party cannot stand each other. That this this is all internal republican dramas, all internal mag internal mega drama. And you know, if if im if im republican strategist, i look at this and think about what it means for the 2024 elections.

Lot of side im a republican. Im just im just throwing my hands saying you, what is it that youre doing . Youre just eating your own national tv. Whats next for Kevin Mccarthy . A aqui is a former adviser to former speaker nancy pelosi. He says it was immediately clear that whatever happens, mccarthys forward will be very different from pelosis. Its not like. Former Speaker Pelosi who basically is an official adviser and still has as much power as she did when sh when she left office. Mccarthy is has been stripped of power in very public way. And i were him, i would be weighing whether or not its its worth continuing in congress at this point in time. I mean, then again, he may try run again. We dont you never know. You he may try to make a deal with nancy mace and some of the others and build back up the 2. 17 without matt gaetz and trying to get it this is a this is a big wakeup call for the republicans in the of representatives.
