Once a Mitthead...

 No, Sen. Mitt Romney, the fate of democracy does not hinge on U.S. Rep. Liz Cheney winning her GOP primary in Wyoming. [More]

About what I'd expect...

Agenda-Motivated Innuendo Does Not Hard Evidence Make

In a statement, the committee's chair, Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.), and vice chair, Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), said the "facts we've gathered strongly suggest that Dr. Eastman's emails may show that he helped Donald Trump advance a corrupt scheme to obstruct the counting of electoral college ballots and a conspiracy to impede the transfer of power."

A Pee-wee Herman routine comes to mind...

LoserCon 22

 A group of Republican critics of former President Donald Trump will gather in Washington, D.C., this week to cheer on the two GOP members of the House select committee investigating the January 6 assault on the U.S. Capitol, Liz Cheney of Wyoming and Adam Kinzinger of Illinois. [More]

These are them if you want to have a source to be able to refer back to when they do things to f*** us over in the future -- and they will.

Expensive production values and only @ 700 views after a YEAR? Can you say "Astroturf"?

And this one, with even fewer views, features Peabody's boy Sherman, anti-gun George Will.

Only 696 Facebook followers?

What's the reason they "merit" all that media attention including the link on Drudge I learned about this from again...?

Interest of Conflicts

 Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) called on the U.S. to stand up to the "generational threat" posed by China while unveiling a major report on Beijing's "malign behavior" at the same time her husband's law firm was working on behalf of companies linked to China's military, intelligence, and security services.

A Woman Scorned

 The committee doesn’t care about justice for those involved; this whole charade is about preventing Donald Trump from running for president again. [More]

That and the motivator behind Liz Cheney's obsession...

A Real Future in The Lincoln Project

 “The Anti-Vax Right Are the REAL Snowflakes.” – Says RINO Adam Kinzinger Who’s on Jan 6 Committee with Liz Cheney [More]

The important thing is, Grover likes him.

Hell Hath No Fury

 Liz Cheney revealed text messages from the president’s son, Sean Hannity, and Laura Ingraham to Trump’s chief of staff on Jan. 6. [More]

Gee, I wonder if she has a motive...

Contemptible

Former Trump adviser Steve Bannon indicted by federal grand jury for contempt of Congress [More]

The committee vote to refer it to the full House was unanimous, 9-0.

Seven Democrats and Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, so nine Democrats.

I don't have time right now to compare the Republicans who voted to send it to the grand jury with the ones who rolled on infrastructure, but I'm betting there will be matches.

Contempt of Congress, eh? Say, what ever happened to Eric Holder...?

With Their Trademark Courage of Conviction

 Liz Cheney says GOP lawmakers in the House and Senate have cheered her on privately in her fight against Trump [More]

So the Vichycons and Occupy Democrats are two sides of the same coin...?

Crush! Kill! Destroy!

 'Get rid of them all!': Trump urges GOP to purge 17 members who voted to impeach him including Mitt Romney and Liz Cheney [More]

Hold on to that link as proof that's what he meant and even the media understood it at the time -- just in case any low-hanging fruits try to take things further and Trump's outraged enemies accuse him of giving marching orders to his minions.

The goal is to paint all of us like this.

The Operative Word is 'If'

 If the GOP is serious about building a winning party and a winning agenda, Kevin McCarthy needs to follow Liz Cheney to the backbenches. [More]

No one here should be surprised.

A Superior Alternative

 Sources: Rep. Chip Roy Is Considering A Run Against Rep. Elise Stefanik For House Leadership [More]

I like his numbers a lot better than hers.

He's a lot better than her with "conservatives", too.

GOA calls him "the swamp's nightmare."

They don't mention her at all.

Why are establishment Republicans so eager to install her over the actually more "conservative" Liz Cheney? Anybody else getting the feeling we're being played?

Cutting Edge Politics

 “She may lose her position in the party, she may even lose her career as a politician, but that is something to be admired. Standing up for the truth, that’s something I know her father wouldn’t have done so, right now I’m kind of a fan of Liz Cheney,” he closed. [More]

"Plus, she's blonde and I want to stab her," was my first thought for OJ's next sentence.

UPDATES:

Here's the thing that's being lost in all this:

NumbersUSA gives Cheney a career "A" and Stefanik a career "C-" with several "Fs" and "Ds".

And any gun owner with a brain knows what that means.

Not that Cheney has figured out a way to do anything but further alienate...

And Thank You for Your Service...

 The Veterans Second Amendment Protection Act prohibits the VA from sending certain information on veterans or beneficiaries assisted by a fiduciary to NICS without a judicial ruling that they are a danger to themselves or others according to a release from Congresswoman Liz Cheney. [More]

Shouldn't that apply to all citizens and non-LEO government agencies?

And if they are adjudicated a danger with full due process protections, shouldn't they be under custodial care?

Forgive me for wondering if Liz Cheney is just trying to recapture reputation points.

Sorry, I don't mean to sound negative. Of course, such protection should exist. It's just that I have these other reactions and concerns.

Hey, Polyphemus did promise to eat them last. 

We've seen some of those names before, haven't we? I wonder how many are secretly embedded Democrat operatives or have hidden, exploitable scandals.
