US-POLITICS-CONGRESS — US House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) speaks to members of the media in Statuary Hall at the US Capitol in Washington, DC, on October 2, 2023. A leading hardline Republican said on October 1, 2023, he would move to oust House Speaker Kevin McCarthy for striking a deal with Democrats to avert a US government shutdown without the spending cuts demanded by the right-wing caucus. US Representative Matt Gaetz (R-FL) is a leading figure within a small group of hardline Republican legislators who had brought the government to the brink of shutdown with their refusal to adopt fresh federal funding without deep spending cuts.
