GOP Rep Matt Gaetz is not happy with Kevin McCarthy.
He announced he will introduce a motion to vacate against McCarthy.
ABC News reported:
Hard-line Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz plans a vote this week to try and remove Speaker Kevin McCarthy from his role as punishment for McCarthy orchestrating a bipartisan stopgap government funding bill to stave off a shutdown, Gaetz said Sunday.
The Florida lawmaker called himself “relentless” in an interview with ABC “This Week” co-anchor Jonathan Karl.
While Gaetz acknowledged he may not yet have the votes to actually oust McCarthy from the speakership, via a so-called motion to vacate, he said that he could get enough votes before 15 rounds of ballots — which is how long it took for McCarthy to win the gavel.
He also announced it on CNN.

Via CNN:
“I do intend to file a motion to vacate against Speaker McCarthy this week,” Gaetz (R-Fla) said. “I think we need to rip off the band aid. I think we need to move on with new leadership that can be trustworthy.”
Do you agree with Gaetz?
