House Republicans voted Wednesday to oust Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) from her House leadership position amid a public spat between her and other House GOP leaders following her increasingly critical comments about former President Donald Trump and the party’s messaging.

After she was voted out, Cheney, the daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, told reporters that she will work to prevent Trump from becoming president again, but stressed she didn’t feel betrayed by her fellow House Republicans.

“I will do everything I can to ensure that the former president never again gets anywhere near the Oval Office,” Cheney said after the vote on Wednesday, adding that the “nation needs a strong Republican Party … based on the principles of conservatism.”

“I plan to lead the fight to do that,” she said.

An election for who will become the House Republican chair will occur at a later date. It’s not clear when.

Leading up to the vote, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) and Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.) threw their support behind Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y) to be the House Republican Conference chairwoman. Stefanik tweeted on Wednesday that she is officially campaigning to take Cheney’s spot.

anyone with last name of Cheney should not be able to run for any political office, after the idiotic Iraq war

You could say that about almost every politician.

She has threatened to enlist Mossad to blow up the new World Trade Center if Trump ever becomes Precedent again. Dad knows all the right people.

There's now bullshit being spouted by the media (without any proof other than 'sources say') that some GOPers are threatening to form a new party.

Let them.

LOL, them and 5% of the electorate at the very, very best. Why would neoliberal multinats give them money when they have the Dems?

Liz Cheney Lied About Her Role in Spreading the Discredited CIA "Russian Bounty" Story
As part of her ideological war to reclaim the GOP for neocons, the now-deposed House leader falsely denied her role in a tale designed to block withdrawal from Afghanistan.

"Daddy blew up three skyscrapers in New York, blamed it on a guy in a cave in Afghanistan, killed millions over it, got away with it, and you're going to fuck with me? Think twice, motherfuckers!'

All she has to do is keep quiet. McConnell
And McCarthy don’t like Trump either but they are at least smart enough to know which way the wind blows.

Maybe she knows that she is done; she and all
The other reps and senators that voted to impeach trump who are up for re-election in 2022 and 2024 will be primaried out.

If trump runs he will
Pick someone like Candace Owens or tim Scott

Desantis has a good shot.

But those are more or less the rising stars of
The party.

Appears to be tone deaf to the idea that the electorate isn’t having a rino neocon. This is the so-called draining of the swamp.

Let us see how she does in the 2022 election. Hopefully she will be primaried out.

The Neocons will probably dust off the Jeb/Romney tactic in Wyoming. Try to make sure she has at least 3 opponents, and split the vote enough to get Cheney re-elected. Very important that Wyoming clearly picks one front runner early. Probably Trump will select one very early to prevent this, the one with the Donald Endorsement should win handily.

Not sure it will work, given all the media attention, even the most out-of-touch Republican Voter has heard of Cheney. Wyoming, however, has a lot of Country Clubbers in that state who are there for the tax breaks.

Traitors maybe. The spineless Repcons have given up principles to cling to power for a little longer. I expect more Repcon seat losses in 2022 as they fight amongst themselves, and do nothing to get closer to other voters.


Nah, the Republican Party became the Party of Working (not Welfare) People.

The Dems are the Elitist anti-Worker Party of the Big Tech and Big Bank elites, leavened by Lumpenproles.

Whereas Dems made sure Bernie got nowhere near the Presidency, and selected Hillary and then Biden, those Paragons of Pro-Labor, Pro-Working Class Policy.

Instead of purging Neoliberals for real "Pro-Worker" Democrats, the Democrats are putting their Ancient Neoliberal Relics front and center.
