Less than 48 hours after booting Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., from her position as GOP Conference Chair, House Republicans on Friday morning voted Rep. Elise Stefanik into the lower chamber’s No. 3 job, making the New York lawmaker the highest-ranking Republican woman in Congress.

Chip Roy, R-Tex., 134-46, with 9 members voting “present” and 3 choosing a write-in candidate.

Cheney needs to switch parties and get it over with or resign. If Trump runs, he will get the nomination. Not going to be a good look for her to “continue the fight”. I expect her to join lawsuits to lie about things, be the new Schiff.
Good riddance New World Order Open Borders Liz Cheney. Liz, just join the communist Democrat party and go to CNN Pravda, MSNBC Pravda or CNBC Pravda. You will fit right in with the communist press. With regard to Stefanik, I do not yet know whether she is a true Conservative, as I want a true Conservative as GOP Conference Chair.
While its good Cheney’s gone.. I am wondering, did trump put his foot in it, yet again, endorsing Stefanik….
Dear Liz Cheney,
Just a reminder: you were hired to represent your constituents’ wants and needs. Instead, you took it as a license to inflict your will upon your constituents, as well as this nation. No one is authorized to do that. Therefore, you were fired. You obviously have not learned your lesson, as you continue to be as arrogant and obtuse as always.
