The American House of Representatives Speaker, Kevin McCarthy, has been impeached.
McCarthy’s fate was sealed after lawmakers decided to oust the California Republican from the speakership.
This is the first time in U.S. history that a speaker of the House has been fired.

According to USA Today, the rebellion, led by conservative hardliner Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., roiled the House in chaos.
The move to oust McCarthy – known as a motion to vacate – had the support of some other hard-right lawmakers who have expressed anger at McCarthy for working with Democrats to avert a government shutdown.

With House Republicans’ razor-thin majority, McCarthy’s fate appeared to fall in the hands of Democrats, who huddled in an extended closed-door meeting Tuesday morning to discuss strategy but ultimately decided not to save McCarthy.
