I think the new speaker will be a Uniparty speaker with the support of the Nancy Maces of the world + all Dems. They can't risk funding for their proxy war. Unfortunately, I think McCarthy was as good as things were going to get.
Note: Liz Cheney was lobbying Dems to vote for removing McCarthy.
Quite possibly, and I'm no fan of the man.
This whole thing just seems like a confusing move, and possibly not well thought out.
Almost worth it just to see McCarthy whine though. He's not as RINO-y as he could be, but that's not saying much, and I hate the neoconny way he talks.
Apparently, they were mad because a Continuing Resolution was passed instead of a budget despite promises to the country. But at least it included no Ukraine money. I did get confused when Biden said that he had a deal with McCarthy about Ukraine funding.
My worry is that this will be used as a reason why "giving concessions to the right" is a bad thing.
McCarthy was already ding everything he could to avoid giving concessions to the right.
