The Date of Liz Cheney's Demise Has Been Set, Mitt Romney Responds

It’s official. According to a new letter from Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, a vote to recall Rep. Liz Cheney from leadership will happen as soon as Wednesday. This follows several weeks of infighting whereby Cheney has sought to use outlets like The Washington Post to bolster her case. Now, House Republicans seem to be fed up, and many who voted to keep her in her position just a few months ago following her impeachment vote are now keen to move forward without Cheney in the lead.

 

I don’t think McCarthy would risk the party being embarrassed a second time by seeing Cheney survive another vote. Given that, my assumption is that this means he knows he’s got the votes to recall her. McCarthy has already endorsed Rep. Elise Stefanik, a controversial choice given her lackluster voting record, to replace Cheney. That seems likely to happen as well.

 

In reaction to the news, Sen. Mitt Romney offered this response.

 

Actually, I’m fairly confident that it will gain the GOP additional voters if it allows the caucus to move beyond relitigating January 6th and the 2020 election in the left-wing press almost every day. Regardless of how one feels about those events, continuing to play into the goal of a biased media to destroy Republicans with such divisive obsessions is an idiotic strategy. That’s why House Republicans have said enough is enough in regards to Cheney. It’s not just that she doesn’t like Donald Trump – neither does Kevin McCarthy last I checked. Rather, it’s about Cheney’s selfish insistence on promoting herself instead of doing her job to ensure victory in 2022.

 

As to whether this will cost Republicans votes, the answer is almost certainly not. No one is going to be talking about Liz Cheney in 2022, and anyone who would base their vote on her previous ouster from leadership was never going to vote for a Republican anyway.

Deja vu....Good Morning, rw.....the 2020 election was decided by a mass exodus of GOP suburban women voters.  What makes you think the master of hateful rhetoric, DJT, can bring those women back into the fold, when it was his said rhetoric that pushed them away in the first place?

Not sure this is really an all Trump event...

 

Cheney represents the Old Dinosaur Establishement Republican Party.....(who is her Dad?).....She, along with others like Mitch need to go...

Funny brother....read McCarthy's letter above, toward the bottom he crows about conservatives embracing "free thought and debate"....as he seeks to oust Cheney for exercising her "free thought and debate".  The GOP is busted.  

 

On a side note:  It's rude to talk about a person when you could simply quote them, and confront them yourself.

Joni Ernst Accuses GOP of Partaking in ‘Cancel Culture’ over Cheney Ouster

Senator Joni Ernst on Monday likened efforts to remove Representative Liz Cheney (R., Wyo.) from her leadership role to “cancel culture” and accused some of her fellow Republicans of “trying to silence others in the party.”

“I feel it’s OK to go ahead and express what you feel is right to express and, you know, cancel culture is cancel culture no matter how you look at it,” the senator from Iowa said when asked about the push to oust Cheney. “Unfortunately, I think there are those that are trying to silence others in the party.”

Ernst’s comments come as 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.”

McCarthy added, “These internal conflicts need to be resolved so as not to detract from the efforts of our collective team. Having heard from so many of you in recent days, it’s clear that we need to make a change. As such, you should anticipate a vote on recalling the Conference Chair on Wednesday.”

Cheney, the third-highest-ranking House Republican, has drawn the ire of her Republican colleagues repeatedly since she voted in favor of Trump’s second impeachment. Last month, she told the New York Post that while she believes Republicans could take back the presidency in 2024, she thinks lawmakers who supported his effort to overturn the 2020 election results should be disqualified from running.

Ernst, who is the Senate GOP’s conference vice chair, said that while she supports Trump and his policies, she still believes “we shouldn’t be trying to cancel voices.” Unlike Cheney, Ernst voted to acquit Trump during both of his impeachment trials.

“What we can do is come together and try to win seats in 2022. I think that’s what all of us should be focused on,” said Ernst, the only woman in Senate Republicans’ elected leadership team. She added that she believes the Cheney drama serves as a distraction from that.

Despite GOP infighting, Cheney received overwhelming support in a secret ballot the House GOP conference conducted in February. The conference voted 145–61 then to keep Cheney in her leadership role.
