McCarthy

There’s a vacancy in one of the top jobs in US politics after the ousting the Speaker of the House of Representatives.  Third in the presidential line of succession, the person who’d have to take charge if the President and Vice President were both indisposed, Republican Kevin McCarthy was voted out by his own party. 

The US House speaker Kevin McCarthy has called for a formal impeachment inquiry into President Biden, claiming a committee has uncovered a “culture of corruption” around Mr Biden’s family, with allegations of abuse of power and obstruction.
