Gaetz takes victory lap after historic vote to boot McCarthy from House speakership
With McCarthy out of a job, Gaetz floats idea of who he would support to fill the position
By Jamie Joseph Fox News
Published October 3, 2023 6:23pm EDT

Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., took a victory lap following Tuesday’s historic vote to oust House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., with the help of a handful of hardline Republicans in his own party.

"We're concerned about the future of the conservative agenda in the house," Gaetz told reporters on the Hill Tuesday afternoon. "I would say that the conservative agenda was being paralyzed by Speaker McCarthy."

"We didn't even send in a subpoena to Hunter Biden, our oversight was lackluster, our spending priorities were misaligned," he continued. "The top line budget was going to lead to more inflation, more debt, more challenges — so the best way to advance the conservative agenda is to move forward with a new speaker."

House Financial Services chairman Rep. Patrick McHenry will serve as interim Speaker until a replacement for McCarthy is chosen. Gaetz expressed support for a couple of potential candidates to replace the speaker — including GOP Reps. Tom Emmer, Mike Johnson, Jodey Arrington, Kevin Hern, or Steve Scalise, none of whom voted to oust McCarthy — should they decide to run for the speakership.

@RepMattGaetz

I don’t think voting against @SpeakerMcCarthy is chaos.

I think $33 Trillion in debt is chaos.

I think not passing single-subject spending bills is chaos.

I think being governed by continuing resolutions and omnibus bills is chaos.

Chaos is somebody we cannot trust with their word.

That’s why I’ve moved to vacate the chair.

Remind me how Gaetz voted on the CARES Act that kicked off all the chaos.

A phyrric victory for Gaetz.

I hope he enjoyed being a Democrat puppet and doing their dirty work for them today.

This isn't a win for the GOP or the Conservatives.

Exactly!

He was leading the charge on a Seinfeld Shutdown...now he's succeeded in the removal of a Speaker that had the backing of the House Freedom Caucus with no plan going forward on what to do after he got his personal revenge on McCarthy.

The GOP in the House is a clown show right now.

Odd how the hate Trump, worship Biden paradise turns out with so many blind supporters angry and bitter as they turned and put on blinders and ear muffs!  The Biden/democrat promises-lies for this woke utopia!  Must be time for more lies and deceptions utopian paradise, eh?
