Matt Gaetz

Matt Gaetz was able to gather enough Republicans dissatisfied with the leadership of then-Speaker Kevin McCarthy to send him packing.

In a Thursday interview, former President Donald Trump disclosed his willingness to step in as a temporary speaker of the House of Representatives, aiming to bring unity within the Republican ranks while a permanent replacement is decided upon.

As the specter of the 2024 U.S. presidential election looms, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) finds itself under scrutiny for purportedly targeting a new category of extremists—loyal supporters of former President Donald Trump, commonly identified as MAGA (Make America Great Again) followers.

Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene said this week that the only candidate she would support for new House Speaker is Donald Trump.

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy's (R-CA) leadership was put to the test when Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz initiated a motion for McCarthy to vacate his leadership position.

“I’ll never give up on the American people. That doesn’t mean I have to be speaker to do what I have to do for the American people.”

Vote to remove McCarthy to be held Tuesday afternoon.

Don Gaetz, Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz's (R) father, announced he is running for state Senate.
