This is cnns special live coverage of an historic vote on capitol hill. Im jake tapper. This has not happened in more than 100 years. But facing a revolt from a small but powerful group of republican hardliners, mccarthy says he will bring up a motion to vacate in the first series of votes today that is just minutes away. I truly believe, though, the institution of the house, at the end of the day if you throw a speaker out that has 99 of their conference, that kept government open and paid the troops, i think were in a really bad place for how were going to run congress. Speaker mccarthy says he thinks he will survive the vote and that he will not make a deal with democrats to keep his job but that may not even be an option anyway. Heres the speaker earlier today. Democrats have been huddling today. Democrats are signaling they will not be coming to Speaker Mccarthys rescue. Lets get right to the action on capitol hill.
