Maggie’s List, a Conservative PAC that supports female candidates has made its first round of endorsements and Rep. Liz Cheney is not one of them.

The first round of 27 endorsements includes 18 House Republican incumbents, 5 candidates running for 2022 midterms, 2 running in special elections this year, a Senate candidate and a lieutenant governor candidate.

Cheney was ousted as GOP Conference Chair recently and the role with Rep. Elise Stefanik taking over the role.

Some of the endorsements, per Fox News:

Winsome Sears, the GOP nominee this November for lieutenant governor in Virginia.

Ashley Hinson and Mariannette Miller-Meeks of Iowa, two freshman representatives who narrowly won election last November.

Ohio GOP chair Jane Timken, who’s running in a crowded Republican Senate primary in the race to succeed retiring GOP Sen. Rob Portman.

Susan Wright, one of the two Republican candidates in next month’s runoff in the special election in Texas’ 6th Congressional District in the race to succeed her late husband,

Stephanie Kunze, who’s running this year in a special election in Ohio’s 15th Congressional District.

Also on the list is Rep. Elise Stefanik (NY-21), who last month was elected House Republican Conference chair – the House GOP’s number-three leadership position – succeeding Cheney, who was ousted from her leadership post.

Reps. Young Kim (CA-39), Kat Cammack (FL-3), Michelle Steel (CA-48), Maria Salazar (FL-27), Mary Miller (IL-5), Victoria Spartz (IN-5), Lisa McClain (MI-10), Michelle Fischbach (MN-7), Yvette Herrell (NM-2), Stephanie Bice (OK-5), Beth Van Duyne (TX-24), Debbie Lesko (AZ-8), Virginia Foxx (NC-5), Claudia Tenney (NY-22) and Carol Miller (WV-3).

This is not how they expected things to go.

They wanted Trump marginalized, ostracized, exiled and condemned.

Instead, their preferred oligarchs are on the outs.

Cheney is popular with some Democrats and media types so she’s got that going for her.

Maybe because it is a Conservative PAC?

[Starboard]

We need a lot more female candidates to replace the weak and pathetic Republican men who are totally lacking in intestinal fortitude.

As far as I can see, no reason to waste good money on Liz.

This is actually a bit of positive news for the day!

What Repub men lack is slightly below the intestines

[Seaplaner]

The Lizard left off a list of excellent female conservatives?

One somehow suspects that she'll respond in a couple of ways...

1. She will blame us "misled" GOP peeps, and...

2. She will find a way to be a (cough, cough) "victim".

(One would would love to be wrong, btw.)

And as an aside, one wonders if she could resurrect at least part of her political career with a comprehensive and unqualified apology to her constituents and a promise to faithfully represent them in the future.

I hate segmenting society and groups by identity.

replace the weak and pathetic Republican men who are totally lacking in intestinal fortitude.

Replacing them with women that allow emptions to run (ruin) their lives (very few don't) is not the answer either.
