House Republicans ousted Rep. Liz Cheney from her post as the chamber’s No. 3 GOP leader on Wednesday, punishing her after she repeatedly rebuked former President Donald Trump for his false claims of election fraud and his role in fomenting the Jan. 6 Capitol attack.
Meeting behind closed doors for less than 20 minutes, GOP lawmakers used a voice vote to remove Cheney, R-Wyo., from the party’s No. 3 House position, a jarring turnabout to what’s been her fast-rising career within the party.
She was Congress’ highest-ranking Republican woman and is a daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, and her demotion was the latest evidence that challenging Trump can be career-threatening.
Cheney has refused to stop repudiating Trump and defiantly signaled after the meeting that she intended to use her overthrow to try pointing the party away from the former president.
“I will do everything I can to ensure that the former president never again gets anywhere near the Oval Office,” she told reporters.
Cheney’s replacement was widely expected to be Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., who entered the House in 2015 at age 30, then the youngest woman ever elected to Congress. Stefanik owns a more moderate voting record than Cheney but has evolved into a vigorous Trump defender who’s echoed some of his claims about widespread election cheating.

The Ultimate CANCEL CULTURE. What hypocrites. and idiots. I guess after losing the presidency, the House, and the Senate under the orange mennuval's reign, the republicans still vote for more losses.
Meanwhile, in other news, hundreds of Israeli lives have been saved by the Iron Dome, developed and funded to the tune of more than 1 billion dollars, by Obama/Biden. How many Jewish lives did Trump save by moving the embassy 30 km, and by making peace with the UAE?

The Iron Dome though financed by both houses of Congress (congress funds this..not Obama) was an Israeli invention with Israeli intelligence ..the USA benefits from this intelligence as well..no other country in the world that gets funded has this two way relationship!
During Trump's reign the Arabs were afraid to raise their murderous heads and kept a very low profile, there were few riots and only nothing close to this while Trump was President. The Demonrats predicted that Jewish blood would spill in the streets after Trump recognised Jerusalem as the Capitol.. nothing materialised, because they were afraid of "Orange man"
I don't know "how many lives were saved by moving the embassy to Jerusalem and making peace with the UAE" I know that no one was killed ..
But barely 100 days into the demented Biden's term we already have deadly riots and many Israelis dead...the Arab bastards smell weakness and so do the Iranian mullahs ... Israel is in for a very long 4 years with this sick "Women smelling pervert" may he rot in hell with Obama who stabbed the Jewish State in the back and front on his way out the door allowing the UN to vote that the Kotel, Mearas Hamachpeilah, and Kever Rachal do not belong to Israel...
May they and their supporters drop dead.

What an idiotic comment! If it wasn't for Biden's policies, the Israelis wouldn't need the Iron Dome, as it wasn't used during the entire Trump's term! We don't need Biden's honey nor his bite!

9+% unemployment with millions of job openings that can’t be filled because federal unemployment assistance makes it more advantageous for people to stay home than work...

You forgot to blame Biden for the 45 lives lost in Meron, and for Benghazi.
