Kevin McCarthy has become the first Speaker of the House ever to be ousted from the position. A group of GOP hard-liners led by Rep. Matt Gaetz orchestrated the historic vote of 216-210 that pushed McCarthy out. Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-N.C) was named speaker 'pro tempore' to serve until a new speaker is chosen. McCarthy has already said he doesn't plan on running for the position again.   


FOX's Gurnal Scott speaks with Jared Halpern, FOX News Radio Correspondent, about how this came to this and who could the next speaker could be.
