U.S. House Rep Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) announced today that he is bailing after he was recently replaced as Speaker.
McCarthy made the announcement in a video shared to social media that he would be departing at the end of the year.
In a post to X, McCarthy said, “As the son of a firefighter from Bakersfield, my story is the story of America.”
“For me, every moment came with a great deal of devotion and responsibility,” McCarthy insisted.
McCarthy explained, “Serving you in Congress and as the 55th Speaker of the House has been my greatest honor.”
