Trump ally pushes to banish Liz Cheney from House GOP conference

A leading House conservative and close ally to Donald Trump wants Republicans to oust Liz Cheney from the party amid her public opposition to the former president and her ongoing role in the probe into the Capitol insurrection.

Pennsylvania Representative Scott Perry, chairman of the Freedom Caucus, on Wednesday privately argued to colleagues that Cheney essentially left the GOP when she agreed to join the committee investigating the Jan. 6 riot and condemned Trump and other Republicans, two GOP lawmakers who were in the meeting said.

“The point is we’re going to have a meeting with the leader to talk about it. Hopefully this week,” Perry said after the closed-door meeting, referring to his request to discuss a resolution to banish Cheney with Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy.

Representative Liz Cheney, a Republican from Wyoming, speaks to members of the media outside a hearing for the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., U.S., on Tuesday, July 27, 2021. Seven House Democrats and two Republicans today launch what they say will be the fullest investigation yet of the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, an inquiry that could drag the issue into next year's midterm election campaign.

Cheney already has been stripped of her position as the No. 3 House Republican leader, but she has remained in the party. The Wyoming state party in November narrowly passed a resolution to no longer recognize her as a member of the GOP.

Perry, who declined a request to be interviewed by the Jan. 6 panel, argued to his colleagues that Cheney and Illinois Republican Adam Kinzinger — the only other GOP member on the committee — allow Democrats to claim the committee is bipartisan, lending credence to its work, according to the two lawmakers, who asked for anonymity to talk about the private discussions. .............

Got a solicitation today in the mail from Liz Cheney to contribute to her re-election.  I live in Texas.

I sent it back in the provided paid for postage envelope with a big NEVER, SHAME ON YOU.

I wonder if she will get the message?

Soliciting in TX, she has her nerve.  I wonder how many Texans will respond in a similar manner? If they do, she may eventually get the message.

Given the choice between voting for Liz and voting for the Rat, I'll vote for the Rat.

I'm no longer a registered Republican and Rubio is running for re-election.  I refuse to vote for him and I won't vote DEM.

Given the choice I wouldn't vote for Liz nor a DEM.  Why would I vote for someone I didn't like?? That's not going to happen.

It's a matter of principle to vote for a Dem over traitors like Liz,  the message must be sent loud and clear.

Voting for Cheney or a DCP disciple is the same thing.

Absolutely!
She should have an (I) or if you want to be truthful a (D) after her name. There in lies the rub, The DCP doesn't want the hag either.

@dfwgator

The message you are sending is that you will cut off your own nose to spite your face.

You want to make a protest vote,vote for Santa,or some other  fictional character.

NEVER vote FOR the enemy,and the enemy is not only treasonous Repubicans,it is ANYBODY with a "D" behind their name.

"Not only treasonous Republicans", that is 98 % of the Republican's in the SENATE and 95% in the House. The R party is the real enemy because they allow and protect all of the BS the DEMS do. The sooner people realize that then we can move forward. Until then it will be the same thing over and over from the Republican Party and looking and expecting different results. Notice Gayboy McCarthy the next Speaker still protecting Lizzy and Adam Kilsinger. (spelling)   :chairbang::chairbang:

Pelosi is timing the Jan 6 shit show to hit the airwaves for maximum impact on the midterms.  Set aside the red meat motivation this wil be for the socialists and focus for a moment on the "R" side.

Liz Cheney will be the face of the coming condemnation of Donald Trump and his supporters.  She will be the face of every criminal referral, she will be the face of the recommendation that Congress (or the DOJ) take action to insure Trump never runs for office again.   MAGA fury wil transfer from the democrats to the repubicans.

MAGA voters will prove to McCarthy and McConnell that home is the other place they can go on election day.

Liz Cheney will be the reason the democrats are victorious in November.

But, by all means, McCarthy, keep her in the Republican conference and keep your fingers crossed that she prevails.

I'm betting it will be the opposite and blow up in their faces, but your scenario is plausible.

Every candidate should run like they're 20 points behind all the way to polls closing.

Ok,so focus on getting HER treasonous ass tossed out of office instead of making a blanket statement to go after any and all Republicans you have ever disagree with.
