Well if you didn’t know anyone ransacking the capitol then it didn’t happen. Maybe you are unaware but it was the constant claims of election theft that got us to this point. Still with the election theft I see the legend lives on forever. The GOP has become a cesspool, Liz Cheney, Sasse, Kinzinger and others are their only hope.

Killing them out of racism is the Dem conspiracy theory they've peddled since Obama.

And its a lie. Several studies have shown Blacks are no more likely to be shot when engaged with police than whites are.

...a resolution calling on Cheney to resign from her role at the leadership table.
So apparently that has no power to do anything except whine. As she said, she ain't going nowhere.

Why verbal someone when their words are in the quote proving your dishonesty. Doesn't make sense.

They voted her in, they have the power to vote her out. This petition indicates their dedicated intention to do just that.

Liz Cheney will be primaried by Wyoming state Senator Anthony Bouchard. Bouchard is a strong backer of President Trump, as are the people of Wyoming. In fact, the state of Wyoming provided President Trump with his highest level of support both times that he ran.

Liz Cheney gets 2022 primary challenger after voting to impeach Trump

Wyoming state Sen. Anthony Bouchard (R) announced on Wednesday that he will challenge Cheney for Wyoming’s lone House seat, saying that his campaign was spurred on by his opponent’s “long-time opposition to President Trump and her most recent vote for Impeachment.”

Wyoming handed Trump his largest margin of victory of any state in November, and the former president remains influential among a base of ultra-loyal supporters that could seek to punish Cheney for her impeachment vote.

In announcing his House bid on Wednesday, Bouchard suggested that he would hitch himself closely to Trump, referencing the former president multiple times. “Wyoming was President Trump’s best state both times he ran,” Bouchard said. “That’s because Wyoming voters are strong conservatives who want our leaders to stand up for America, defend our freedoms, fight for our way of life and always put working people first as President Trump did.”
So it is not really clear what Liz Cheney was thinking here, except maybe that she is above and beyond any need to concern herself with what the values and priorities of her constituents are, with her being the daughter of former Vice President Cheney and all.

Hopefully, she will not be burdened with any such responsibilities beyond her current term of office.

A neoconservative versus a Trump cultist.

Sounds like a lose-lose.

Glad I don't live there.

This should be enough to effectively end her political career. She also has big problems back home in Wyoming. She already has a significant primary opponent who has announced.

To be fair, I am not a Republican and the Republican party is not worth rooting for or supporting, even with this move. But I am happy to see it. She needs to be ousted.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out, Liz. Bye bye.

Liz Cheney for President in 2024! Liz did the right thing!
