Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy was behind the decision to kick Reps. Nancy Pelosi and Steny Hoyer out of their Capitol hideaway offices, one of which the ousted speaker intends to move into, according to a report.
Just hours after Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-NC) was named House speaker pro tempore following the historic vote to strip McCarthy (R-Calif.) of his speakership Tuesday, an email went out to Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Hoyer (D-Md.) notifying them to vacate their unofficial office spaces near the House floor.

THIS is why you think McCarthy should have been removed??? Silly me, I thought we were worried about getting Biden out of office and passing good POLICY, not watching video tapes. Sheesh, the priorities of some people around here are totally out of whack.
“He’s punishing them for not providing Dem votes to keep his speakership, nothing more, nothing less.”
Bingo! We have a winner!
Honestly, folks didn’t think McCarthy was behind this?
Lord it is no wonder we have the elected officials we have.
Your anger is what Draining the Swamp looks like.
And I would LOVE to hear how you'd get all your Conservative priorities signed into law when both the Senate and the WH are controlled by dems! Please tell me how you'd accomplish that feat.
I was hoping he would pack his suitcase, give his guy Frank a big smooch and head back to the land of fruits and nuts.
If he was only pissed and ordered this because Nanzi betrayed him he deserves what he gats and it isn’t a new office except one in the basement with a stapler.
Haha. I will remind you of this comment after the 2024 election when dems control the WH, Senate, and the House. Clown.
Listen up troll, thanks to Matt we are getting new SOTHOR. Valley Boy Ken the RINO sucked at the job. The new one has about a 90% chance of being a non RINO or less of a RINO. An improvement.
If McCarthy was behind the move, why didn't he do it when he was in power?
Hah hah, who wants unification with people who assist RATS in destroying the country?
If the Ds control anything after November 2024 it’s because K-Street Bellhops like you keep putting forward bowtie, Country Club slugs. We’re having a wake for the Lobbyists. Join us, or go away.

......
The Swamp R team,that’s who..
The unofficial rule is that the office goes to the most recent former Speaker. Given that McCarthy is the most recent former Speaker, he took the office. It’s stated in the article.
You spelled McCarthy wrong.
“I’m sure he will accept the apologies of all the FReepers who bashed McCarthy without knowing the facts of the matter.”
__________________________
Yeah right! Right after people like you apologize to Gaetz and 7 other great Americans for taking out the trash!
So why was Steny Hoyer infesting a spot?
“apologies of all the FReepers who bashed McCarthy without knowing the facts of the matter.”
What “facts of the matter”? We knew from the get-go that McHenry did this on behalf of KM. KM getting his revenge because Pelosi went back on her word to “have his back”. WE knew this. How could you NOT?
Truly a man of the people! /s
That is not what happened. You should really read the article.
You’ve got a Fedzilla smell to you.
You can’t take enough baths to get the fed out,though..
