WASHINGTON (AP) — House Republicans voted overwhelmingly Wednesday to retain Rep. Liz Cheney as their No. 3 leader, rebuffing a rebellion by hard-right conservatives angry after she voted last month to impeach then-President Donald Trump.
The secret 145-61 vote came the same day that Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy ridiculed Democrats for slating a House vote Thursday on removing Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia from her committees. McCarthy’s comment was a signal that he was dismissing bipartisan demands that Greene be punished for her promotion online and embrace of racist and violent views and bizarre conspiracy theories.

145 corrupt Derpers in the GOP. Name and shame. Every last one needs to be removed from office.
Of course the vote was secret.
The GOP will be gone in 6 moths swallowed up the Democrats
Secret ballot, because they did NOT want to show themselves for what they are
Whatever. Regular Republicans in Wyoming will get their say next year, and they might have a different idea than these D.C. swamp creatures.
Good when the NRCC calls for donations I’ll be sipure to say “Tell Kevin to get the money from Cheney’s daddy.”
She needs to be primaried in 2022 by the GOP voters in Wyoming.
And what’s with this secret vote crap?
Not likely.
So much for Matt Gaetz’s claim that they have the votes to oust Liz Cheney from leadership...
Cowards.
Secret vote? Then they’re all voting to keep her as far as I’m concerned.
145? Knew there was a uniparty, this confirms it. You can call the RNC and demand a refund if you gave any donations recently.
They are not called the stupid party without reason.
Repeat: never give to a GOP candidate directly. Make a contribution to President Trump and let him dole it out.
Sure, Trump has made some bad choices in backing candidates and appointees, but he has courage and more than a little sense.
Good enough for me. The GOP doesn’t need me as a constituent. They are dead to me.
They literally have Trump’s photo on their homepage for fundraising, calling him the “Paycheck President” for job creation, at the same time their leaders are trying to destroy him.
That says it all for me.
All the idiots that say stay with the Republican party? This is what you get. No surprise.
145-61.
Shameful.
Angry as this makes me, and quite honestly it infuriates me, I will not lose my focus. The Traitor Ten must still be defeated. The Traitor Ten must be the focal point and must be made the example. Do not let them spread the damage like a pack of hyenas do when attacking a lion. If they survive the primary, then they must be defeated in the general (yes, even voting for a Degenercrat in those ten races).
What this tells me is we have a lot more RINOs to purge.
Target and destroy the 10 in the next primary.
Follow the money.
The Defense industry has deep pockets. I’m sure a lot of the GOPe Repre$entative$ will garner some serious campaign donations after this vote.
It’s all about the Benjamin$.
