US House of Representatives Speaker McCarthy Ousted
For the first time in history, the United States House of Representatives voted to remove Republican Speaker Kevin McCarthy Tuesday night after hardline Republican congressman Matt Gaetz forced a procedural motion to vacate the position. There is no clear consensus on McCarthy’s replacement, with many lawmakers vying for the position. For more on this historic event, VOA’s Vincent Makori spoke to VOA Congressional Correspondent Katherine Gypson live at the US Capitol.
