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.

Sure would love to see her defeated in a 2022 Primary, but I would RATHER see her RECALLED. Is it possible? I hate waiting until 2022 because Xiden can do so much damage. If it were only possible to recall Romney and Murkowski, then true patriots would have a real shot replacing these traitors. Then if Manchin could be recalled, we would end up with control of the Senate...

Every republican representative needs to be asked how they votes on Cheney. Every single on of them, publically, and an answer demanded.

Liz Cheney is an absolute liar. Where is her “duty to the Constitution” in arresting Kamala Harris for fraud since she’s Constitutionally ineligible to serve as the Vice-President because she’s not a Natural Born Citizen?

That two-thirds of Republicans in the House let this bitch remain in a leadership position shows how futile it is to try to reform the Republican party.

I hope Trump reconsiders starting a third party.

Cheney has thumbed her nose at the state party. Seems to me they can now remove her as their representative.

“The single greatest threat to our republic is a president who would put his own self-interest above the Constitution, above the national interest.

Hey she did it herself last summer when the bogus Russian targeting US Soldiers claims came out a claim that not even Colin Powell believed instead of asking the White House she went right to the press she now can reap what she sows right out of congress next year

Much easier to take over the existing Repub party. Currently there are 200K open positions for Republican Precinct Commissioners. There are 100k of “other republicans” and 100K Donald Trump Precinct Commissioners. Web sites that outline this for a point of action-— how to do it. County by County precinct by precinct. Requires action. Do we have the strength to get this done?

How to do this varies by State. This was discussed by Dan Schultz Attorney Maricopa County, AZ (Tempe Districts) on Steve Bannon’s Pandemic WarRoom last night. His collection of info by state. Get involved— the power derives from these positions.

Whoever runs against her in the next primaries is sure going to get a lot of campaign cash. She won't stand a chance in hell of serving (I mean abusing) another term.

Yes it was a secret vote— conveniently. The number of them not voting her out was 145. The majority under McCarthy.
