Kevin McCarthy REMOVED as Speaker as Republicans revolt; Matt Gaetz has huge message for Congress

Republican Kevin McCarthy was REMOVED as Speaker of the House after he took President Joe Biden's side and decided on more money for Ukraine. There was an epic revolt from many Republicans who voted with the Democrats to kick McCarthy to the curb in a historic vote. McCarthy suffered a 216-210 defeat after eight Republicans voted against him. This is the first time a House Speaker was ever removed in a "non-confidence vote" according to several news reports. <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/house-vote-matt-gaetz-kevin-mccarthy-motion-to-vacate-watch-live-stream-today-2023-10-03/" target="_blank">CBS News reported</a> the following:<br /> <blockquote> <p>House Speaker Kevin McCarthy was ousted from his leadership position in a historic vote on Tuesday after a far-right revolt over his reliance on Democrats to pass funding to avert a government shutdown.</p> <p>The final vote was 216-210, with eight Republicans joining all the Democrats to vote to remove McCarthy. It's the first time a House speaker has been removed in a no-confidence vote.</p> <p>"The office of speaker of the House of the United States House of Representatives is hereby declared vacant," said Republican Rep. Steve Womack of Arkansas, who was presiding over the chamber.</p> <p>Rep. Patrick McHenry of North Carolina, a top ally of McCarthy's and a member of the Financial Services Committee, was then appointed speaker pro tempore. The rules of the 118th Congress state that "in the case of a vacancy in the office of speaker, the next member" named on a list submitted by McCarthy to the clerk of the House in January will become speaker pro tempore until a speaker is elected.</p> </blockquote> <br />Matt Gaetz slammed Congress for being "owned" when he said: “I take no lecture on asking patriotic Americans to weigh in and contribute to this fight from those who would grovel and bend knee for the lobbyists and special interests who own our leadership.”

'Traitor McCarthy' accused of making secret deal with Biden to funnel more money to Ukraine

Republican Speaker Kevin McCarthy has just struck a deal with President Joe Biden to send more money to Ukraine. Now the Speaker is being accused of striking a secret deal with Joe Biden over the weekend and facing criticism from Republicans across America, with many people calling Kevin McCarthy a traitor and saying he loves Ukraine more than he loves America.<br /><br />And let's face it, sending all this money to Ukraine could be some sort of grift or money laundering at this point. There is no intelligent person on the planet who honestly thinks Ukraine should be getting this much money unless there's something shady going on, and there is tons of speculation of money laundering or other shady activities. Heck, Zelensky can't even get a pair of nice pants on to rob America of all those billions. This is just my opinion, but I share the same sentiment with millions of others.<br /><br />This situation is so bad for Kevin McCarthy that Americans are already called for him to be vacated as a traitor to the American people who doesn't deserve to serve as Speaker of the House. Even ABC News posted this on their video description:<br /> <blockquote><span class="yt-core-attributed-string yt-core-attributed-string--white-space-pre-wrap"><span class="yt-core-attributed-string--link-inherit-color" style="color: #131313;">Even though the latest short-term spending bill to keep the government open through Nov. 17 didn't include Ukraine aid, President Biden implied over the weekend that a deal was made with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy to pass future funding. CBS News congressional correspondent Scott MacFarlane lays out what's next for Congress including a potential motion to oust McCarthy as Speaker.</span></span></blockquote>

"It's devastating, ohOhOhOhoooohhhhhh don't do it, please don't do it": Fetterman

This could be the weirdest reaction Democrat John Fetterman has ever had to anything in the existence of the galaxy. He wiggles his fingers around and acts somewhat like he's on the spectrum as he gives a sarcastic taunting reaction to Kevin McCarthy launching an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden. This impeachment inquiry took place after GOP members found some possibly incriminating information against Biden, according to a report on Yahoo News. That political news <a href="https://news.yahoo.com/john-fetterman-reacts-gop-moving-171125046.html" target="_blank">report said</a> the following: <blockquote>On Tuesday, Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy announced his plan to direct committees to open an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden after he said GOP members "uncovered serious and credible allegations" against the president in recent months.Asked about McCarthy's decision immediately after it was formally announced, Democratic Sen. John Fetterman appeared less than impressed.<br /><br />"Oh my God really? Oh my gosh, you know, oh it's devastating," he said before falling into a fit of laughter. OOOoOoOOoOoOOOOh don't do it, please don't do it. Oh no, oh no!"The jokes from Pennsylvania's junior senator were not the first time he's addressed the possibility of a Biden impeachment. <br /><br />Less than a week ago, Fetterman told a group of reporters that he dared the GOP to go through with it."If you're gonna keep threatening it, then go ahead, just do it," Fetterman said. He added that he thought the impeachment "would just be like a big circlejerk on the fringe right" and that Republicans had a "fetish for Hunter Biden."</blockquote> <p> </p>

Kevin McCarthy gives deadline on possible impeachment of Merrick Garland

Republican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy said on 'Fox & Friends', on the morning of June 26, that "If it comes true what the IRS whistleblower is saying, we’re going to start impeachment inquiries on the Attorney General." This is Speaker McCarthy's way of saying there may be consequences against Merrick Garland in connection to Hunter Biden, which then looks really bad for President Joe Biden and the Democratic Party in general. However, many people believe McCarthy won't do much of anything - even if he should. McCarthy suggests the impeachment would be mainly due to political bias and 'weaponization' of the Department of Justice.<br /><br />All of this political drama is thanks to an IRS whistleblower making major claims against Hunter Biden and linking him to alleged tax crimes through investigations. Hunter Biden is taking the heat for two tax charges and likely to admit guilt on a gun charge, but won't be slapped with a felony or prison time like he should be.<br /><br />McCarthy said yesterday on <a href="https://twitter.com/SpeakerMcCarthy/status/1672994001459490817?s=20" target="_blank">Twitter</a>: "We need to get to the facts, and that includes reconciling these clear disparities. U.S. Attorney David Weiss must provide answers to the House Judiciary Committee. If the whistleblowers' allegations are true, this will be a significant part of a larger impeachment inquiry into Merrick Garland's weaponization of DOJ."

McCarthy admits only seeing '11% of the budget'; claims Biden 'walled off' remaining 89%

This conversation took place during an episode on Fox News with Harris Faulkner talking to alleged 'RINO' Speaker McCarthy:<br /><br />Speaker McCarthy: "We only got to look at 11% of the budget to find these cuts. We have to look at the entire budget."<br /><br />Harris Faulkner: "Why didn't you see the WHOLE budget?"<br /><br />Speaker McCarthy: "The President walled off all the others."<br /><br />Harris Faulkner: "He wouldn't let you see? Wow!"<br /><br />The debt ceiling vote looms and it appears that Democrat President Joe Biden and Republican Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy are on the same page, despite people saying that no Republican should support the debt ceiling and Republicans want deeper spending cuts. <a href="https://apnews.com/article/debt-limit-biden-mccarthy-house-votes-9375cce9b7526b2d0a5728f8d4a18a0a" target="_blank">AP reported</a> on the suggestion that it has enough votes to pass and Biden plans on it going accordingly:<br /> <blockquote> <p>“I think things are going as planned,” he told reporters. The president was to depart Washington Wednesday evening for Colorado, where he is scheduled to deliver the commencement address Thursday at the U.S. Air Force Academy.</p> <p>“God willing by the time I land, Congress will have acted, the House will have acted, and we’ll be one step closer,” he said.</p> <p>Biden sent top White House officials to the Capitol to shore up support ahead of voting. McCarthy worked to sell skeptical fellow Republicans, even fending off challenges to his leadership, in the rush to avert a potentially disastrous U.S. default.</p> <p>“Everybody has a right to their own opinion, but on history, I’d want to be here with this bill today,” McCarthy, R-Calif., said as he arrived at the Capitol.</p> </blockquote> Many Americans believe they should reduce spending where it's not needed and make better decisions with the money instead of possibly overspending on things we don't need and therefore wasting money on essentially nothing.
