Colbert Mocks GOP Chaos After McCarthy Ousted as House Speaker

Kevin McCarthy was ousted as Speaker of the House on Tuesday and said he would not attempt to regain the role.

Stephen Colbert reveled in McCarthy's downfall when he heard the news just before going on stage.

McCarthy's ouster was largely orchestrated by Rep. Matt Gaetz, who Colbert mocked for the pathetic smack talk that started it all.

Colbert imagined a silly back-and-forth of Gaetz and McCarthy threatening each other on Twitter.

Colbert concluded gleefully that the House GOP is in chaos after McCarthy's historic and unceremonious removal as Speaker.
