THINGS not going so great in GOP conference, which turned heated, I’m told.

In a blow to McCarthy, the House failed to table – or block – the effort to oust him as Speaker led by Rep. Matt Gaetz.

The vote was 208 to 218 with 11 Republicans against the motion to table. This paves the way for a vote on whether to remove McCarthy as speaker.
