Gaetz Doubles Down on Effort to Oust McCarthy as Speaker, Predicts New Speaker This Week

Rep. Matt Gaetz says it would be "absolutely" worth losing his seat to oust Kevin McCarthy as Speaker.

Gaetz led the effort to remove McCarthy from the Speaker's office last week.

Gaetz predicts a new Speaker will be chosen this week, not taking multiple rounds like McCarthy's election.

Gaetz says suggestions to remove him from Congress are "crazy" given his 70% district vote.

Gaetz says there are 2 "incredibly respected" replacements for Speaker - Reps. Jim Jordan and Steve Scalise.
