Matt Gaetz announces plans to oust Kevin McCarthy from House speakership

Conservative hardliner Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., announced Sunday he will attempt to eject House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., from his post this week.

In an interview on CNN's "State of the Union," Gaetz said he will file what is known as a motion to vacate against McCarthy this week, a push to remove him from his leadership position.

"I think we need to rip off the Band-Aid," Gaetz said. "I think we need to move on with new leadership that can be trustworthy."

The move represents an intense escalation of House conservatives' hostility towards McCarthy. Gaetz' commitment comes after the speaker relied on Democrats to pass a short-term, stopgap spending measure – referred to as a continuing resolution – to keep the government open and avert a shutdown on Saturday.

Gaetz has repeatedly threatened to file a motion to vacate if McCarthy ever reached across the other side of the aisle to pass a continuing resolution. Instead, Gaetz pushed for GOP leadership to pass the 12 appropriation bills necessary to fund the government long term, even if it meant leading the country to a government shutdown.

"We have to move to single-subject spending bills," Gaetz said. "That's why we now have to move to vacate because we have to get a system where the House and Senate will negotiate over each of these agencies of government independently.
