An ominous murmur arose after the vote was announced, D.C. correspondent Liz Ruskin says.
The U.S. House is without a leader after hard-right Republicans moved to oust Speaker Kevin McCarthy and eight of them voted with all House Democrats to do so. That makes McCarthy’s tenure as House Speaker the shortest since 1875, and that Speaker died in office of consumption.: It was really somber. The roll call vote was manual, meaning the clerk called all 435 members of the House by last name. Once that was over and the yays and nays announced, it was nearly silent in the Chamber.
The Appropriations Committees consider each of a dozen spending bills, one by one, and then each one goes to the House and Senate floor for a vote. But the thing is, some of these very House Republicans who’ve been a thorn in the speaker’s side – are the ones jamming up these spending bills. So Republicans loyal to McCarthy say they’re like arsonists complaining that their house is burning while they block the fire trucks.
