This is the best summary I could come up with:
The Republican-led House voted Tuesday to oust Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) as speaker, the first such removal in congressional history.
McCarthy’s removal was sought by hard-right members of his own party.
Democrats did not provide votes that would have been needed to save him.
The move puts the House in uncharted territory as it searches for a leader.
