SEATTLE — Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler, R-Wash., one of 10 Republican U.S. House members who voted to impeach Donald Trump for his role in the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection, says she will vote to retain Rep. Liz Cheney in Republican leadership.
Cheney, who also voted to impeach the former president, is expected to be ousted from her position this week.
“Jaime will be voting to keep the House leadership in place,” Beutler’s spokesman Craig Wheeler told The Seattle Times in an email. Wheeler said the congresswoman had no additional comment.
Beutler represents the 3rd Congressional District in southwest Washington.
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy has set a Wednesday vote for removing Cheney from her No. 3 Republican leadership post. He sent a letter Monday to GOP lawmakers saying it was clear that he and his fellow Republicans “need to make a change.”

RINOscum supporting RINOscum.
A RINO!!!! That’s it, I’m NEVER voting GOP again, since we still have RINOs!!! We need to teach the GOP a lesson by letting the Democrats get uncontested power and destroy the country for our kids and grandkids.
That will sure teach the RINOs a lesson!!!!
Right?
So will a handful of other never-Trumpers, but in the end she will be kicked out in a landslide. I did enjoy her OPUS, she can reflect on that great moment as a private citizen in 2023.
of course
It’s a secret ballot so I expect that Cheney will get a lot of votes. But not a majority so she’s going to be removed.
Daily Mail just reported she’s out.
The Republicans also need to vote out Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler and vote her into the Democrat Party. Why keep a backstabber around?
How is she in the “leadership” anyway?
Seniority?
I have never heard of her actually committing any acts of ‘leadership’
Liz Cheney now = “Gone Girl”. She’ll continue to be a boil on the butt of the Repubs, but at least it’s no longer on the ‘face’. She is totally ‘eaten up’ with TDS - heard a Rep describe her as not salvageable due to TDS.
The RINO herd is threatening to form a breakaway party. Wish they would. The Republican rank and file are conservative and support Trump. They know the election was stolen. Hopefully these breakaway RINOs are facing an extinction event. Best if this happens now. Clear choices are needed in the primaries and the general election.
“Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler, R-Wash., one of 10 Republican U.S. House members who voted to impeach Donald Trump...”
So Cheney is probably gone, this chick needs to be next, then we go after the other eight.
This is getting to be FUN! :)
Hurry, 2024!
They already have that, they simply just need to change their registrations to Democrat.
No surprise. Wonder what the vote was and if they'll release it?
She's got three primary challengers, but has a big lead in fundraising. They need to coalesce around one of those three to defeat her.
No. Cheney’s issue with Trump is based on policy. Cheney wants endless wars, open borders and unfair trade. We mustn’t buy the Never Trump gaslighting that their opposition is based on Trump as a person. It isn’t.
Nobody is saying that, genius.
We're getting rid of Liz, and then we get rid of the pitiful few Swamp creatures of both parties who support her, who outed themselves conveniently.
Including you, apparently.
It’s about 50/50 she keeps her seat, IMO. Conservatives are just not ruthless enough to fight dirty like them and the GOP knows it.
“We’re getting rid of Liz, and then we get rid of the pitiful few Swamp creatures of both parties who support her, who outed themselves conveniently. Including you, apparently.”
Find me a post where I supported Liz Cheney, or shut your trap.
How is she in the “leadership” anyway?
Diversity I guess.
Note who voted she stay.
