Kevin McCarthy ousted as House Speaker in historic vote
The rebellion was led by Florida congressman Matt Gaetz after Mr McCarthy relied on Democratic votes to get a short-term spending deal passed on Saturday to avert a government shutdown.
Mr Gaetz accused him of making a "secret side deal" at the weekend with President Biden on Ukraine aid.
But really this was the final act in a bitter saga that has been simmering all year between the Speaker and a right-wing faction in his party.
They tried to block his election to the post in January, saying he could not be trusted to enact conservative principles.
In their view he proved that by striking a deal with Democrats in June to raise the debt ceiling without extracting the deep cuts they wanted.
Now they are the ones being accused of treachery - some Republicans are openly talking about expelling Mr Gaetz.
