House Speaker Pro Tempore Patrick McHenry has ordered the eviction of former Democratic leaders Nancy Pelosi and Steny Hoyer from their offices in the Capitol, sparking criticism from both sides of the aisle. This move comes after the ouster of Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) as House Speaker, which was caused by months of GOP infighting led by Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.). Despite the criticism, many are hoping that the new Republican Leadership can now focus on more pressing matters.

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) has suggested that allegations of corruption against President Joe Biden may be worthy of an impeachment inquiry, prompting a response from Democrats who have dismissed the allegations as baseless and politically motivated. The Biden administration has also denied any wrongdoing, while former President Donald Trump has called for Biden’s prosecution. The House is currently debating government funding bills and it is unclear if the allegations against Biden will be taken up in the near future.
