Congressman Matt Gaetz plans to officially introduce a motion to vacate House Speaker Kevin McCarthy this week and, for Seth Meyers, it’s a bit like watching “Alien vs. Predator” play out in real life.
In his first show back following the end of the writers strike, Meyers did a speed run of the news he missed covering in the last five months, before turning the entire show into one big “A Closer Look” segment. In “A Closer Look: To the Max,” the NBC host dug a little deeper on some of the more current news stories, including Gaetz’s promise to oust McCarthy, after the speaker got support from Democrats to avoid a government shutdown.
