Side note: the Speaker of the House doesn't have to be someone who is in the House. They have don't have to be a member of Congress. They don't even have to be an elected official.

What does this actually mean?

Repercussions are...
Gaetz was sick of McCarthy working with the Democrats and not focusing on things like reducing debt and lowering the role of the federal government, so he worked with the Democrats to get rid of McCarthy.

Now, someone else needs to get elected. The Speaker pro temp is the Speaker in the meantime and has sent the House home for the week. The vote for the new Speaker will begin next week. McCarthy getting voted in took 15 rounds of voting, so... The House won't be doing shit for a while.

Gaetz nominated him last time.
