(Because she has ethics and integrity, the MAGA crowd put a lot of effort into defeating her in the primaries.)
GOP Rep. Liz Cheney said she's "very worried" about election-denying candidates running for office and said "they must be defeated" in the 2022 midterms in an interview for a CNN special report on the House January 6 Committee's investigation.
Cheney, the vice-chair of the House panel probing January 6, lost the Republican primary for another term in Congress representing Wyoming to a Trump-backed challenger in August.
"I'm very worried. I think those people must be defeated." Cheney said in a clip of the interview, hosted by CNN's Jake Tapper and set to air in full at 9 p.m. ET on Sunday, obtained by Politico Playbook. "The responsibility that we all have to make sure that we make sure we defend our republic and defend our institutions has to be above politics."
In all, 43 Republican candidates for governor, attorney general, and secretary of state who have denied the outcome of the 2020 election will be on the November ballot in 27 states, a recent report from the nonpartisan group States United Action found. Arizona, Michigan, and Alabama have such candidates running for all three of those offices in November.
The way things are going the party has sooo much hubris they think everything they say or do appeals to their base. Unfortunately,, some in their base have a modicum of sense, mostly women,and are seeing the truth behind the MAGA crowd.
Says the unrepentant daughter of a mass-murdering war criminal. Yeah, she has so much standing.
Yeah, I think her dad is a shit too. However, she is an angel compared to her father.
Yes, she is not one of us but at least she is standing up to her own party.
