a tourist bus plunged often over past near venice. the clare richardson welcome to the show. us house of representatives has voted to remove republican speaker, kevin mccarthy. this the 1st time in history, the speaker has been voted out of the position and it comes after a showdown between mccarthy and a small group of hard right conservatives from his own party. mccarthy is described ousting as personal and said he will not stand for re election. just days after narrowly avoiding a government shut down. a rebellion amid the republican ranks as trust congress into chaos. 8 hard line republicans joined with democrats in voting out speaker of the house. kevin mccarthy ending a rocky tenure for the republican lawmaker of the office of speaker of the
11:02 am
house of the united states. house of representatives is here by declared vacant right winger, mat gates a controversial fire brand from florida. lead charge to was mccarthy. he said the former speaker didn't do enough to curb government spending and made too many concessions to democrats. kevin mccarthy is a feature of this war. he has risen to power by collecting special interests, money, and redistributing that money and exchange for savers. we are breaking the fever now and we should elect a speaker who has better during the voting several look mccarthy's supporters warned that a vote against him was irresponsible. the house. kevin mccarthy think long and hard before you plunges into chaos, because that's where we're headed. if we vacate speakership in an address after his removal, mccarthy said he thought the vote was the product of
11:03 am
a flawed political system. in today's world, if you're sitting in congress and you took a gamble to make sure government was still open. and 8 people can throw you out of speaker, us and the democrats who said they wanted to keep government open. i think you've got a real divide. i think you've got a real institutional problem. mccarthy also said he will not seek re election. congress is at a standstill until a successor is elected. another government shut down deadline is moving next month . so what does all this mean for us politics? i put that question to the w. william. good croft and effectively, i guess it's a shut down through the back door given how i'm president of the situation is we just heard earlier. this is never really happened before in the house of representatives. so people are scrambling to their rule books and to the procedural experts to see what happens now. but basically, um, no work can get done and no legislative work can get done without
11:04 am
a speaker of the house, a leader of the house of representatives. there is a temporary still in speaker of the house, but that person is really only empowered to basically see to the next speaker of the house, the real speaker of the house to be voted in. and there's no, no, there's no knowing of when that next speaker might be who it might be, a republicans or in disarray. and democrats have a theoretical chance of having someone of their party lead, lead congress. but practically speaking, not since they don't have the majority. so as you said, shut down is on the table. ukraine funding is on the table and just the general, you know, data the business of government, of passing laws can really happen until there is a new speaker of the house. completely unclear when that might happen. and all of this, the result of the fact that 8 hard right conservatives with in the republican party wanting to get rid of mccarthy. you know, democrats could have stepped in to save them, but instead, we've seen him ousted with a 22162210 votes. can you help us make sense of exactly what is going on there?
11:05 am
yeah, it's pretty bonkers politics. what we've been seeing here these last several days, even by us standards that have just been getting more and more bunkers over the last couple of years. i mean, let's back up a couple of days where we had a narrowly averted government shut down. that only happened because a kevin mccarthy after trying to make some kind of deal with his really hard line republicans to pass some kind of budget or continuing resolution to fund the government. couldn't get it done. when to the democrats got democratic supports to avoid this shut down and, and got blamed for allied himself with the democrats. and now a few days later, you have people like matt gates and other really hard line republicans who were accusing mccarthy of selling out the republicans, the democrats getting democratic support to our mccarthy. so there's a lot of shenanigans going on here. democrats and thought about maybe sitting this went out, but they ultimately decided. mccarthy has not called out donald trump and all the efforts that trump in his allies have done to do to, to seed you know,
11:06 am
misinformation and to at the instability with the election in 2020. she has not been on their side at all and he tried to throw the democrats under the bus for blaming them for the shut down. so the democrats have no love lost for mccarthy, and we're happy also for their own reasons, to see them go to see him go. so they've decided to let the republicans get their own house and order. um, how are republicans then? when i deal with the fact that they're essentially being held to ransom by a friends group of hard, right, conservatives, right, well, if we're talking of ransom, then we're talking about hostages, but then i think we need to be talking about stockholm syndrome. because let's clarify the misnomer that there's somehow just sort of, you know, agreeable republican party. and then these little bit of crazies on the side, i mean, the republican party has moved so far to the right member kevin mccarthy, himself a voted to help or tried to overturn the election results in 2021 of many, many republicans who either actively tried to overturn those result or has not
11:07 am
publicly repudiated donald trump and his allies, who believe the lie that the 2020 election was stolen. so it's not like you have not. gates is friends on the very far right. you kind of have the, that the right and the very, very far right. so republicans themselves are in disarray. essentially sleeping in a bed that they made by, by, you know, coddling and not calling out the really, really hard line. members of they are part of who absolutely do not want to vote, work with democrats under any circumstances, want know by parts and ship at any time. and some of them don't even believe that joe price. joe, joe biden is a legitimate president of the united states, and of course he is. um, so this is kind of a chaos of the republicans own making. and then on top of that, all the bi partisan discord between republicans and democrats. it's a going to be a very hard road going forward. william, thank you so much for that anal us as far as the w. william good craft return now
