The tableau of Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) and her father, former vice president Richard B. Cheney, standing on the floor of the House as the sole Republicans to honor the police officers who died as a result of the Jan. 6 insurrection should be seared into the minds of voters and reporters. It perfectly depicted a Republican Party utterly devoid of leadership, decency and honesty. (Apparently, Republicans no longer respect the “blue line.”)
The moment was a reminder that we have one “normal,” patriotic party and one overtaken by an authoritarian cult based on lies. The notion of reforming the GOP from within has become farcical. But the Cheney family must not be the only Republican soldiers for democracy.
There are others.

LOL! The suggestion that the Democrat Party is "patriotic" is a joke. The Democrat Party hasn't been patriotic for a very, very long time. They claim to support the Constitution then do everything in their power to undermine it.
Rubin needs to pull her head out of Biden's rear.
The only person murdered, shot, and killed that day was an unarmed Air Force Veteran named Ashli Babbitt.
Are the Pubbies queuing up yet?
I denounce the big lie daily. The big lie is that Biden won in a fair and free election.
Jebbifer is still butt hurt that her heartthrob Yeb! did not get to be the Designated Loser in 2016.
Jen Rubin and her soulmate Maggie Haberman are against everything Western Civilization stands for, like shampoo and soap.
The REAL “Big Lie” = The 2020 was honest and legitimate.
