Republicans Censure Liz Cheney and Label Jan 6 Insurrection ‘Legitimate Political Discourse’
The Republican National Committee voted Friday to condemn Reps. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) and Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), for serving on the House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol by a pro-Trump mob, claiming their behavior “has been destructive to the institution of the U.S. House of Representatives, the Republican Party and our republic,” The resolution accused Cheney and Kinzinger of participating in a “Democrat-led persecution of ordinary citizens who engaged in legitimate political discourse.”
Gee whiz, now what I don’t get is, if the Jan 6th insurrection was only about "legitimate political discourse," one wonders why did Republican lawmakers hightail it the hell out of there like roaches after someone turns the light on, instead of sticking around in the House chamber, to "discuss" the issues with the nice folks who’d come for some of that “legitimate political discourse?”
But, I get what Republicans are saying. Why, it’s no different than that “political discourse” we enjoyed at Pearl Harbor back in 1941, or the intriguing “discourse” folks were having while Germany was bombing the living shit out of London. And, of course, I’m quite sure, had these insurrectionists been people of color, the RNC would have felt exactly the same towards them also.
Anyway, on a positive note - now that Republicans have completely “banished” Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, simply for disagreeing with the Trump-party line, they can now get back to enjoying one of their favorite pastimes - complaining about “Cancel Culture.”
By the way, speaking of Liz Cheney, she said she harbors no grudge toward anyone in the RNC over her banishment. In fact, just to show there are no hard feelings, she’s graciously invited them all to come out to her native Wyoming - to go hunting with her father.

So can we now walk into one of our representatives offices shoot up the place making sure we have their attention and the just take stuff and have nothing of import to say?

Not even hiding what they are now... The party of trump... The fascist party
This is why I tend to agree with Garland's delays in charging Trump, the jury pool will include individuals who would go along with this and the judge could be a Trump supporter as well. We should learn a lesson from the farcical Rittenhouse trial. Trump's guilt is moot if you have a judge with his thumb on the scale. An appeal to the Supreme court might succeed on the thinnest of pretexts.
I imagine old dead eye Dick Cheney is a little pissed off about what his party is doing to his daughter. We will see who ends up on top of that ridiculous party!
It's too late for Daddy to help..he no longer holds sway in the party of Trump..
You have to admire the level of chutzpah and gaslighting skills they have to call that attack on national capitol and what we all watched in horror on TV, political discourse when we saw insurrection and sedition.
