Congratulations 👏 to the GOP for finding a new way to implode. Only Eight members of the majority destabilized the house.
Far-Right G.O.P. Faction Throws House Into Chaos as McCarthy Is Ousted
The vote orchestrated by a group of far-right lawmakers leaves the House without leadership. The speaker was unable to manage a bitter power struggle within the Republican Party

 Isn't Gaetz a pedophile?
And another quip from Trollville that has nothing to do with the topic.
I'll talk slower: Matt Gaetz allegedly had sexual relations with an underage girl. He doesn't belong in his position, yet he just today toppled the Speaker. He was mad because McCarthy worked with the Democrats to avoid a shutdown, the very title of this thread.
Voting for Trump is dumber than playing Russian Roulette with fully loaded chambers.
