Top Lawmaker Made Stunning Announcement After House GOP Defies McCarthy

This past weekend, President Joe Biden put his signature on the deal that was negotiated to raise the debt ceiling. After stating that he would never back down from his demands, President Joe Biden was eventually pressured into striking a settlement that involved budget reductions.

Kevin McCarthy and his colleagues worked on a plan that was a compromise that would lift the debt ceiling while also putting restrictions on President Biden’s spending spree and even making cuts to the Internal Revenue Service and other agencies.

But there were those conservatives in the GOP who took a hard stand and were upset. They were adamant about not engaging in negotiation and insisted that significant changes be made to Biden’s plan. They were so incensed by the agreement that they demanded that McCarthy be removed from his position as Speaker of the House.

And now one of the key men who worked on the transaction with McCarthy is making this assertion, which is really surprising. Rep. Garret Graves, who collaborated with McCarthy to reach this agreement, declared that Kevin McCarthy’s position as speaker is absolutely safe. In spite of what statements some other Republicans have made, the Republican claimed that he was confident McCarthy would continue to serve as the leader of the House.

According to the rules of the House, a motion to vacate can only be brought up by a single member in order to remove a speaker from their position. To remove McCarthy from her position, however, the vote would need to be passed with a majority. Graves doesn’t appear to believe it to be a possibility at all.

Graves stated that this idea is not the mainstream position inside Congress, despite the fact that one Republican, Rep. Ken Buck, has brought up the possibility of firing McCarthy. It is not apparent what conservatives expected to come of the talks regarding the debt ceiling. There were many who did not want McCarthy to back an agreement that included concessions. However, they were clueless regarding how to convince Joe Biden to consent to the severe budget cuts that they demanded.

These hardliners must have wanted the country to default on its obligations, quite similar to the radical left, which was also opposed to the accord. They were really fortunate that McCarthy wasn’t completely set in his ways and could find a middle ground with Joe. These Republicans would like nothing better than to see us in default right now if they had their way. There would have been a loss of several million jobs, and we would be in the midst of a severe economic downturn.
