The House voted to remove Kevin McCarthy as speaker. The unprecedented move narrowly passed with 216 yeas from 208 Democrats and 8 Republicans and 210 nays, all from GOP members. The chamber is currently without a leader.

Just minutes after McCarthy was ousted, Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-N.C.) was named interim speaker pro tempore. McHenry is one of McCarthy's top allies and chairman of the House Financial Services Committee.
