Cheney says she will not resign despite call from state GOP, stands by Trump impeachment vote
Fox News ^ | 7 February 2021 | Ronn Blitzer

House Republican Conference Chair Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., said she will remain in office and in her position as one of the highest ranking Republicans in Congress. despite opposition following her vote to impeach former President Donald Trump.

After House Republicans voted not to remove Cheney from her leadership position, the Wyoming Republican Party censured her on Saturday and called for her to resign. On Sunday, Cheney made clear she has no plans to do so.

"I'm not," Cheney told "Fox News Sunday" host Chris Wallace. "Look I think people all across Wyoming understand and recognize that our most important duty is to the Constitution. And as I've explained and will continue to explain to supporters all across the state, voters all across the state, the oath that I took to the Constitution compelled me to vote for impeachment, and it doesn't bend to partisanship, it doesn't bend to political pressure, it's the most important oath that we take."

Cheney went on to criticize her state party for their censure, accusing them of believing conspiracy theories about the election and the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol that she says are just not true.

We do have a lot to do. It appears that the Counter offensive to the Deep State has begun. The Lincoln Project is the first target. Others will soon follow. I suspect that it will really take on steam when actually testimony is presented in the courts..We will see how patriotic the people who swore an oath to the US Constitution are.

I seem to be the only one here who is convinced she will be re-elected. Probably by a percentage point or two. The deep state is very deep and her dad is one of its kings.

She’s of the haughty wealthy ruling elite, no common American is going to tell her what to do. Only her dad and George Soros can do that.

In a hole and can’t stop digging. IMO Liz knows if Trump is not stopped her dad Dick will be facing a military tribunal.

American politicians don’t represent anymore, they rule.

Both parties are the same.

With comments like yours, it’s hard to tell if I’m on FR or DailyKos these days.

I don't know Lod881019 from Adam, but perhaps you can explain to me what we gained in Iraq and Afghanistan by spending the monies we did at the human cost of 7,245 dead and 52,242 wounded of American young people? Do we need to be leftists to not want our children killed for frivilous foreign adventures?

I'm asking this as a former line officer who served in the Persian Gulf, so my perspective might be skewed a bit. Perhaps I can be enlightened...

I have held my nose for the very last time. And as long as this 2020 Election Theft is allowed to stand, I see no use in voting again.

I am now focused in moving forward with the Texit movement. Since the United States Constitution has been declared to be Null And Void by the Supreme Court, all bets are off.

I wonder which republicans failed to defend the constitution on Jan 6, and then condemned Cheney for her vote to impeach? Do they think we will forget?

Every single time we see a congressman or senator make a political move to prove they are conservative, the question should be asked... “How did you vote on January 6?”

January 6, 2021 will be known as the day America Died unless Justice is served THIS YEAR, and our traitors removed from office!

DO NOT FORGET!

Has anyone read who the RINOs were that didn’t vote for her to be removed from her committee position?

She reminds me of one of those folks that live by “Don’t confuse me with facts...my mind is made up”.

Seems that only RINOs and Democrats stand up for themselves. The rest of the Republican Party caves and begs for forgiveness as soon as the left says something mean about them.
