The Republican Party Central Committee in Carbon County, Wyoming, has censured Rep. Liz Cheney for voting to impeach President Trump, as support for the one-time rising GOP star crumbles in her home state.

The censure resolution passed in a unanimous vote by the 45-member central committee. It included a demand that Ms. Cheney appear before the committee to explain her actions.

Some interesting local trivia:

Carbon County is home of Rawlins, the state prison. It is also home to Sinclair, a company town with the oldest continuously operating oil refinery in the Rocky Mountain West.

Just east of Sinclair is the townsite of Benton, the Terminus of the Union Pacific Railroad in 1868. The last settlers to arrive by wagon train along the Oregon and Mormon Trails departed from Benton that year.

U.S. Grant even made a campaign stop here during the 1868 Presidential Election even though the nearest eligible voters would have come from Nebraska.

The resolution itself is simply awesome! I hope a successful recall petition will follow.

I don’t trust that Dan Crenshaw, either.

He’s turning out to be a dud, it seems.

There have been several federal court cases citing recall of congresstters & senators as unconstitutional. A constitutional amendment is required. That’s why its in Levin’s book on what a COS should accomplishment.

The emotional ones and others will continue to cry against voting for Republicans. The Party could be completely cleaned up, and you’d still see the shower of demands against voting. They want only Democrats to vote. Oh...and they are starving for more conspiracy theories...and dope.

That was then, this is now.

Back then a rep from Virginia or Maine represented Virginia or Maine.

Now they represent BIG MONEY/BUSINESS and THEMSELVES.

They can be expelled by their respective chamber.

Well, that might be enough, and if she's kicked out of any and all committees, then, she might get the hint and resign completely from congress.

Democrats are terrified that carrying a failing Biden administration into 2024, with an awful standard-bearer like Kamala Harris at the forefront, is a recipe for a Trump resurgence. Of course, if they were smart, they’d let this impeachment nonsense go. Perhaps Trump gets bored and decides he’d rather play golf for the rest of his days? But if you poke the bear, don’t be surprised when he bites. This is only going to fire up Trump and his supporters more to make another go at it.

Absolutely. Throw her out of the party, literally on her head, or the GOP is finished. Personally, I think the GOP is finished anyway. I know I’m done.

This just means she’s cut a lucrative deal for herself after her present term is up. She won’t be winning anymore elections in Wyoming. She’s deep state all the way.
