Gaetz had threatened to move to oust McCarthy if he worked with Democrats to fund the government.
"I do intend to file a motion to vacate against Speaker McCarthy this week," Gaetz said in an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “I think we need to rip off the band aid. I think we need to move on with new leadership that can be trustworthy."
Gaetz confirmed that he'll soon file a motion to vacate the speakership in an appearance on ABC News'"This Week," after the Senate and House on Saturday night voted to pass a short-term bill to keep the government funded through Nov. 17.
