Congressman Matt Gaetz (MAGA-FL) has followed through with his stated opposition to Kevin McCarthy after the passage of a blank check 45-day continuing resolution supported by Democrats.
Taking to the House floor today, Representative Gates filed his official motion to vacate the chair. WATCH:
WASHINGTON DC – Kevin McCarthy is officially facing the test that’s plagued his entire speakership: conservatives forcing a vote to oust him.
Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) on Monday night filed a formal motion to eject the speaker, a maneuver last attempted in 1910 and never successfully completed. The House must act by Wednesday on the matter — and while McCarthy may yet survive depending on how Democrats vote, even a failed challenge to his speakership weakens him going forward.
It’s far from clear that Gaetz has the votes to depose McCarthy, as the Floridian himself acknowledged to reporters after making his move. Only three colleagues, Reps. Eli Crane (R-Ariz.), Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.) and Bob Good (R-Va.), are openly supportive of his effort. But a handful of other House Republicans frustrated with the speaker are seen as persuadable on the matter of his future.
Among those potential GOP swing votes: Reps. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.), Matt Rosendale (R-Mont.), Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) and Dan Bishop (R-N.C.).
“I have enough Republicans where at this point next week one of two things will happen: Kevin McCarthy won’t be the speaker of the House or he’ll be the speaker of the House serving at the pleasure of Democrats,” Gaetz said, referring to the near-certain likelihood that Democratic votes will be required in order to keep McCarthy’s hold on the top gavel.
“I’ve made peace with either result,” Gaetz added. (read more)
We all need to let our congressional representatives know whether we support or do not support the motion.
McCarthy must go. Full stop.
Good luck. He has full uniparty support and $$$ and media. They only pretend to be against him, but don’t forget his various friendships with his left aisle comrades
And his support from Mark Levin.
He never should have had the Gavel. Bully for Rep. Gaetz. May the Lord Bless and Keep him, Amen.
Not one of them is worthy.
This lady is amazing!
@repspartz victoria spartz.. Fighting the status quo like crazy..
She is worthy, for sure.
As above, what makes her worthy?
Results, not words or sound bites.
She lived under Soviet rule and dreamed of making it to the land of the free and the home of the brave, came here became a Citizen and dove into the pile of sh!t covered vipers that is Congress.
Don’t you think it odd that we have a Ukrainian in Congress? She came out of nowhere alright, but someone funded her candidacy BIG TIME and wanted her elected (selected) really bad. No one in Indiana knew this lady, but boy was she advertised to Hoosiers!
Thank you for the background info, she was hammered by Republican’ts for demanding accountability because u-crane has had such a proclivity for corruption. I heard her say she knows their games well back home. The fact the Uniparty was against her made me think she couldn’t be all bad. I know a couple cool cats that originated there. Not everybody is tinhorn skinflint.
Yep! I wish others would open the other eye and do a bit of research…yours truly part of the arsenal.

Do you have issue with late model Gen Xers?
Nope. No issue whatsoever.
However, I think for myself.
I do not trust her. How did she so all of a sudden get into that seat. A bit too convenient, IMHO.
Looks like a laundered seat to me.

Nope.

Disgusting. Someone strapped her into the seat.
PS her speeches are PURE Kabuki.

They must have whipped this and needed the vote.
They need to go outside the members and find a good honest Speaker, if that’s possible.
NOPE. ENOUGH People in NATIONAL / STATE OFFICE Where THEY HAVE ” FOREIGN ALLEGIANCES ”
BEST SPEECH in My Opinion –
https://the-american-catholic.com/2019/10/12/october-12-1915-theodore-roosevelt-addresses-the-knights-of-columbus/
Remember, a Speaker can be anyone. Matt should nominate President Trump.
Or just to really screw people up…James Woods!!!! Would be epic. Too bad no one has a spine left.
Great! Let Hakeem the Wet Dream and the rest of the disgusting Democrats save McCarthy’s ass. At least everyone will be able to see exactly what’s going on and who’s f*cking them.
Kevin and his gay boyfriend Frank Luntz can pearl-clutch at some DC gay bar. Plenty to choose from!
If/when the democRATS DO save McCarthy’s job, Hakeeeem can have Jamaaaal Bowman give a 21-fire alarm salute in Kev-o’s honor.

FINISH HIM!
They threw Ukraine the bread, time to get back to the circus. Next up, gladiator games!!

Bravo Matt Gaetz!! Keep up the good work for America!!
Read that Kevie is pushing some total BS ethics investigation against Gaetz. Not a big surprise at all. Kevie is a uni-party hack.

All Uniparty must go down permanently
Excerpt from the article Sundance posted.
“I believe that Speaker McCarthy is trying to signal to the ethics committee to pursue me,” Gaetz told reporters. “I’m built for the battle. I’ve faced down tougher than these folks and I’ll do it again.”
Empowering a single lawmaker to make that move, as Gaetz has now done, was among the concessions McCarthy gave to conservatives at the start of the year as he hustled to lock down the votes he needed to become speaker.
Good for Rep. Matt Gaetz! 🙂
I applaud the effort. However, Matt never should have given in and voted for him in the first place.
He didn’t.
lets see who from the speaker vote fight shows up
You must give sufficient rope to the fool who would hang himself.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
At least Gaetz has tried.
And like he said, either McCarthy will be gone, or he will be the Democrats’ Speaker of the House.
Make notes of the RINOs who support McCarthy.
Someone has to pave the way. Matt has done it. He’s done what all good patriots want: to hold these lying scumbags accountable for their promises. Hr might not get ousted but he’s a limping SOS with the Dems being his crutch.
Matt has put it all on the table for the people to see just who’s running things – the Uniparty.
This hasn’t been done since 1910, but it’s only going to be a mere few days/weeks before he files his next one.
I’m glad he’s doing it, if for no other reason (beyond exposing Kev and uniparty) that it is bringing things to a halt. He’s backed Kev in a corner of his own making.
I hope the sh*tshow continues. The uniparty has put the people in a daily sh*tshow. Glad they have one of their own. They deserve it.
Kev is weak and wounded. He might survive, but he’ll have a limp and his crutch will be the Ds.
Total agreement.
The ‘veil’ is being pulled back just like in the Wizard of Oz.
The sooner the better that everyone gets red pilled.

Gaetz is calling for sanity. The swamp is on self preservation mode and looking to expand their power and reach. They won’t have enough votes because we have the worst humans in positions of power. Period. We will reach an apex. Then let the chips fall were they may.
Big Cahones Gaetz
Must follow through as this was the deal
Kev-Dawgg did exactly what Nan would have, just a bit slower.
Boom.
Take names.
I don’t believe the Demonic Pedo Democrats will vote to remove one their own.
The mask is going to slip on the uniparty.

70,000 illegal uncultured Somalians all invited into the US and told to go to Minnesota. That produces the congress POS Ilhan Ohan. On so many technical issues she should be expelled. MN is deep in the muck.

Nuff said.
I admire him for his patriotism as a Japanese kamikaze pilot who died in the service of his country. Bring it on Matt!
They don’t even have anyone else to be speaker- Matt doesn’t want to- I’m fine exposing the votes for McCarthy- I just think he never shoulda been speaker. This money laundering to Ukraine is really pissing me off too.
I’m not sure if he does/does not want it. He did say when asked they would never vote him in.
He would not be acceptable to the tea-cup rinos. . They would vote vote the Peloshit before him.
Wimps. All of them. Except for Matt.
The funny thing is…thDems and Rinos will vote for a Dem. Nancy Peloci?
LOLOLOL!!!!!

McCarthy needs to be removed now.
I applaud Matt for trying to stop McCarthy.
The Republicans can protect McCarthy, But not without laying their cards on the table for the whole world to see.
This is a brilliant move.
Massie the Rino super douche is already going that route. Eff that fake POS.

If Democrats bail him out, the Uniparty reveals itself.
If not…
Speaker Byron Donalds??
His slip showed in the last vote. Up until then, I would have agreed with you. But now, its a Hell No.
Wait what did he vote for, the CR??
a NON-VOTE …
https://clerk.house.gov/Votes/2023513
No, Donalds was never anything. These clowns are just rotated for bread and circuses.
Uni-party long ago revealed.
Little will come of this.
yep, these fearless heroes with r’s next to their names are happy to tackle any issue, any issue whatsoever
oh, except rigged elections
Democrats with Rs next to their name are called controlled opposition.
RINOs are the Left’s defeat mechanism, their only job is to demoralize you.
They announce themselves, knowingly or unknowingly.

I am afraid Matt is just committing suicide.
That’s what I mentioned too, but rumor has it he might run for FL gov in’26. This might be his swan song, by choice, and as he said if the countries going down, he’s going down fighting.

At least Gaetz put his cajones on the table for all to see. 👏👏👏👏👏
How? What’s the risk to him? MAGA is backing him regardless. He has made his brand.
Make Branding Great Again?
Everything Woke Turns To Sniff
I can’t see the socialists joining the effort to unseat McCarthy because they know he’s a uniparty hack who’s willing to wheel and deal with them.
Can McCarthy stand for Speaker again after being booted? The socialists might go along for self amusement and then vote him back in. Or this might be the opportunity Jeffries needs to grab the spot.
I applaud Gaetz and his efforts, but ultimately the swamp protects their own. Perhaps this is all just setting the stage for a run at the Florida governorship since Puddin is term limited.
This will be a slugfest for all to watch, and informative. The House is the closest to the people. And the people are sick and tired (squared) of the BS that comes down the hill from that location.
The socialist twerp Bowman pulling a fire alarm is just one more straw on the camels’ back.
Attorney General Garland’s insane garbage interview yesterday on Sunday Meet Your Boss tv is another straw.
The camel is buckling.
YES! A slugfest in the salt mine.
Oh the humanity……
Gaetz keeps getting closer and closer to being the worthy “Ty Cobb of Republican politics”.
Golden words:
Gaetz has followed through
About time someone held SOMEBODY accountable for what he promised when he became SOH.
Good. I’m over that it will make any difference if Kev is gone or a Dem sits there.
Glad for the shitshow. THEY are putting us through one everyday!!!
Good. Sink his ship and while you’re at it Matt close down the gubmint.
If Kevin McSnake McCarthy is removed, I hope Matt Gaetz has reconsidered becoming Speaker. That’s my early Christmas wish list.
Speaker Gaetz, I like it, I want it.
How is he to be removed? I like the publicity, but the math ain’t happening.
Same sentiments. This will be exposure. Not certain if it will have an impact or not.
We have a man that puts snakes in the bag.
About time
Emailed my representative stating he should support the motion to vacate. I expect he will do the opposite. He’s a UNIPARTY tool by the name of Eye-Patch McCain aka Dan Crenshaw.
I emailed mine yesterday and informed her, (Chavez DeRemers), that she would be exposed as a member of the Uni-party if she failed to support Rep. Gates. Told her, “You can either be a leader or a follower. It’s your choice and Oregon is watching”.
Innocent or criminal.
I like to use words now that are not so nice. I am done with niceties.
I like to pour a ring of salt around the slugs just to see if they would try to crawl through it or perish in the sunlight.
Could we lose the speakership to a Dem?
How could that affect committee assignments
Typically, the Speaker is from the majority party in power.
All but guaranteed another Uniparty hack regardless of the letter after the name.
Or a slob or a crook. Let’s look back a few years:
Tip O’Neill – slovenly drunken Irishman from MA
Jim Wright – ousted from speakership after numerous scandals and crooked dealings by both him and his wife
Tom Foley – NAFTA and FMLA champion, both detrimental to the republic, Clinton lackey
Newt Gingrich – resigned after scandal-plagued tenure; forwarded phony “Contract with America,” which was a successful ruse intended to get the R-wing of the fledgling Uniparty in the majority.
Dennis Hastert – run out of congress after shady land dealings in IL put him under investigation. Ignored congressional page scandal. Ultimately discovered to be a sex-abusive pedophile.
Nancy Pelosi – daughter of mob-influenced mayor of Baltimore. Record of treachery speaks for itself. Communist from SF.
John Boehner – solid Uniparty. Cried like a schoolgirl. Never appeared sober, spray-on tan was an indication of the guy’s phoniness. Democrat-lite.
Paul Ryan – took Uniparty concept to new heights – fully functioned as a commie-crat; was Nancy Pelosi in male drag.
Nancy Pelosi – see above. Shoved Obamacare through with rule manipulations – terrible human being. Would say Uniparty, but this more correcly pertains to republicans acting like commie-democrats. Democrats already behave like commie-democrats.
Kevin McCarthy – ultimate Unipartyist. Required 15 votes to acquire speakership, and only attained after agreeing to a number of conditions, none of which he has honored (he never intended to). Did not expect anyone to call his bluff once he was speaker, but it now looks like someone did. About to be exposed as the Uniparty snake that he is – it will be interesting to see who’s paying attention.
As one can see, this position has been held by a cadre of crooks, fools, charlatans, and two-faced Unipartyists. I agree that the next one will likely have similar attributes.
I’m so tired of the nonsense, I don’t care about any of it. Nothing changes, the USA is in big decline and we watch daily as it continues. A smirking judge, Special sham Counsel, a corrupt media, no representation in Congress, witnessing such evil….and on and on. We’re just living, praying and trying to survive. Some say why are you still in California. It’s not easy to just leave when you have aged parents, children and grand children and a job with a paycheck. In constant prayer for God’s blessings and light for President Trump and his family.
It appears we’ve had our 200 years
Ummmm. That would be for a democracy, which we are not.
Not certain about the shelf life of a republic, but we and our two generations before us should have done a much better job at policing this.
I only realized about the horrors in 2014. Came to CTH. Still have no way to figure how to reverse a pincer movement on my own city by H Clinton and Company.
It is just a mess and the result of a combination of Dems and Repubs.
All criminal.

“(MAGA-FL)” Love it!
#1 goal of the Left: GET GAETZ!!!
#1 goal of the DC Uniparty.
Fixed that for ya.
So win win for Gatez. Either McCarthy is gone or the ethics charges against him when the report on him comes out look like retaliation. He can’t lose here.
I suspect the Dems will vote with Gatez. What a golden opportunity for them to shut down the US House for months
We are in the middle of a Marxist revolution. They are intentionally destroying our cities with weak law enforcement, devaluing our dollar, the rule of law with weak enforcement and lawfare. People always talk about “collapse” but it’s really going to happen. The only bright side is that on the day of the lord these people will be ashes under our feet.
Amen. God bless.
“I have enough Republicans where at this point next week one of two things will happen: Kevin McCarthy won’t be the speaker of the House or [he’ll continue to] be the speaker of the House serving … the […] Democrats,” Gaetz said,
There’s a leader: do the right thing, even if it fails in the short run. Deserves the #2 spot (or consideration) on the ticket with Trump (assuming the rules allow for president and VP to be from the same state).
MAtt GAetz–he’s got MAGA in his name….
McCarthy is weak and ineffective. He agreed to 12 appropriation packages. Not one has passed.
Then he lets the house recess for 6 weeks. Screw this.
Why oh why have we not heard from Newt Gingrich lately ? He fought the good fight back then. Surely he must recognize this moment. Anyone please explain why ?
Because he works for FOX and they are not down with MAGA. He got the memo. $$$
Newt Gingrich Ratioed for Defending McCarthy, RINOs Against Matt Gaetz
https://thenationalpulse.com/2023/10/02/newt-gingrich-ratioed-for-defending-mccarthy-rinos-against-matt-gaetz/
Thank you Matt.
If it doesn’t work, it’s not because you didn’t try!
Kevin needs to go NOW!
Accountability and principles may be available
Good for Matt, finally someone with the balls to stand up and expose the bankrupting of our country. On the same day the military says they are so short on ammo and hardware they are not able to provide our own troops with what they need. But the money and military equipment for Ukraine has to keep moving even as we become more vulnerable by the day. Dangerous times we’re living in.
I’m calling my rep tomorrow.
Will tell her to vote with Matt….see if she listens.
I can assure you she will listen.
to her largest donors.
The rinos supporting mccarthy, of which there are many, will be coming for Gaetz with a vengeance.
Hageman has heard from me loudly to support Gartz.
He would like McCarthy gone for sure but another reason he is doing this is to show America the uniparty. McCarthy can only be saved by the demonrats. It may educate some more people.
I fully support the motion. He’s literally reneged on every concession he made to become speaker to begin with.
And I’m loving Gaetz’s strategy:
1. Force a public vote
2. Force Democrats to admit he’s serving at their pleasure
3. Force the media to admit DC is run by the UniParty
4. Hold politicians accountable for their promises.
I love everything about this move, especially Gaetz’s ability to articulate his reasons for doing it. Bravo.
There is no good reason for me to contact my Representative. I live in Massachusetts.
When you have a corrupt saboteur in your midst you expel him, you don’t wring your hands worrying how he will be replaced. In this case subtraction is addition. McCarthy must be ejected without delay.
This isn’t a snapshot of betrayal. It’s two Uniparty members embracing one another. Anyone aghast over this image STILL hasn’t gotten their head around the Uniparty construct –or is it an inescapable atmosphere?
The only way to be aghast over this image is to still regard blue/red jersey kayfabe as an authentic contest of ideas, which it isn’t.
It really is a devilishly ingenious construct. We want so badly to believe in the villains and the heroes that it’s hard not to let your emotional predilections join in the fun.
Try talking to your neighbor or someone in a bar about politics, which is sort of a standard protocol of social discourse WITHOUT donning a jersey. I don’t claim to know the answer. But I recognize the stubborn omnipresence of the fly paper.
