| Liz Cheney Survives Vote to Oust Her as House GOP Conference Chair |
| 2021-02-04 |
| [Breitbart] House Republican Conference chair Liz Cheney (R-WY) survived a leadership challenge Wednesday night after most Republicans voted to keep her as the third-ranking House Republican. The House Republican Conference held a secret ballot on whether the House GOP should oust Cheney. Sixty-one House Republicans voted to oust her, 145 Republicans voted to keep her, and one Republican voted present. The vote came after House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) spoke in defense of Cheney. The House GOP Conference ballot was held because many House conservatives led a movement to remove Cheney as the third-ranking Republican after she announced that she would vote to impeach President Donald Trump. "I won’t apologize for the vote," Cheney told the House Republican Conference. |

| #3 Cheney is walking dead - she will be primaried out in 2022. All McCarthy did is kill himself politically - McCarthy is done. Proven swamp creature. No speaker for him. |

| #1 Secret ballot was it? Why? Her vote to participate in an illegal impeachment, a non-constitutional action was not secret. The Pubs have just sanctioned her actions But, but, but Kevin McCarthy offers to dump Marjorie Taylor Greene from committee in compromise with Democrats. Hey, what's the harm? I thought Georgia was now BLUE ! |
