YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe U.S. House of Representatives was in chaos Wednesday as Republicans began the battle to determine who will become the next House Speaker.
The congressional body has entered uncharted territory after the success of a last-ditch, right-wing effort to remove fellow Republican Kevin McCarthy from the speakership. The effort by Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz with the support of eight far-right Republicans ended with McCarthy becoming the first speaker in history to be removed from office.
McCarthy's subsequent announcement he would not run for the job again cleared the path for any Republican to jump in. Some members, including Gaetz, have been broaching potential consensus candidates like Majority Leader Steve Scalise or Whip Tom Emmer who they see as bringing the conference together.
Other names up for discussion include Rep. Jim Jordan, the chair of the House Judiciary Committee and a favorite of the right flank of the party and Rep. Kevin Hern, chair of the Republican Study Committee.
