House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy castigated Rep. Liz Cheney for her continued pestering of President Trump, rather than focusing on winning the House back in 2022, something that should be at the top of Cheney’s mind given her role as Republican Conference Chairwoman.
Rather than recognize the anger of GOP voters towards her, Cheney has opted instead to please big corporate donors and neocon Never-Trumpers who are friends with her father.
Brittany Bernstein reports in National Review:
Representative Liz Cheney (R., Wyo.) doubled down on her criticism of former President Donald Trump during a speech on the House floor Tuesday, one day before she will face a vote to oust her from her House Republican leadership role.
Cheney said the country is facing a “never seen before” threat in Trump, who she says “has resumed his aggressive effort to convince Americans that the election was stolen from him.”
“Remaining silent and ignoring the lie emboldens the liar,” Cheney said. “I will not participate in that. I will not sit back and watch in silence while others lead our party down a path that abandons the rule of law and joins the former president’s crusade to undermine our democracy.”
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R., Calif.) announced that a vote would be held Wednesday on whether to remove Cheney from her role as House Republican Conference chair.
“It had been my hope that our driving focus would be taking back the House in 2022 and implementing our Commitment to America,” McCarthy wrote in a statement. “Unfortunately, each day spent relitigating the past is one day less we have to seize the future.”
Cheney has drawn the ire of her Republican colleagues repeatedly since she voted in favor of Trump’s second impeachment but previously survived a secret ballot the House GOP conference conducted in February over whether to keep her in her post.
The corporate cronies and neocons Cheney seeks to please are the same ones who want to trap Americans in a virtual panopticon, and push forward the goals of the Great Reset. They will never make America great again.
Action Line: Tell neocons, Never Trumpers, and corporate cronies that they need to focus on America First. There are a number of candidates ready to replace Cheney in Wyoming, get to know them here.
