Steve Scalise to announce bid for House Speaker

Trump reacts to calls to nominate him for House Speaker

Former President Donald Trump reacted to calls to nominate him for House Speaker following McCarthy's fall.

House Majority Leaader Steve Scalise, R-La., is expected to announce a bid for Speaker at some point on Wednesday, Fox News Digital has learned.

The timing of Scalise's announcement is still unclear.

It comes after former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., was ousted from the top job on Tuesday by a small number of GOP hardliners and all House Democrats.
