An online job search website posted a new job listing for Speaker of the House after Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) was ousted from his position.

“Job opportunity!” Daybook wrote in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter. “The U.S. House of Representatives seeks a Speaker of the House based in Washington, D.C. Yearly salary: $223,500.”

The post from Daybook comes after McCarthy was removed as Speaker of the House in a vote of 216-210 on Tuesday, making McCarthy the first House speaker to be voted out, according to the Associated Press.

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) introduced legislation on Monday to begin the process of ousting McCarthy as Speaker of the House after the House passed a continuing resolution, narrowly avoiding a government shutdown.

Hours after being ousted as Speaker of the House, McCarthy announced that he would not be running for the position again, according to The Hill.

“From the day I entered politics, my initial mission has always been to make tomorrow better than today. I fought for what I believe in, and I believe in this country of America,” McCarthy said. “My goals have not changed. My ability to fight is just in a different form.”
