Cheney, Kinzinger signal they'd back Gosar censure
The Hill ^ | 11/12/2021 | CRISTINA MARCOS

Posted on 11/12/2021 8:45:47 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Reps. Liz Cheney (Wyo.) and Adam Kinzinger (Ill.), are expressing support for censuring their fellow Republican Rep. Paul Gosar (Ariz.) for posting a photoshopped anime video this week depicting himself killing Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.).

Cheney and Kinzinger have frequently criticized their own party over its continued ties to former President Trump, but it is nevertheless extraordinarily rare for lawmakers to back censure efforts against members of their own party.

A group of House Democrats, led by Rep. Jackie Speier (D-Calif.), formally introduced a resolution on Friday to censure Gosar over the video, which the Arizona Republican defended as a "symbolic" fight over immigration but appeared to remove it from Twitter following the outcry.

Trump should announce a $1M fundraiser for anyone that gets censured for making fun of a RAT/RINO on social media.

Glad they have so little to do they can obsess on this sort of nonsense.

You know whenthere was a video made of the assassination of Shrub and Snoop dogs video of him shooting at Trump, why that was art and protected speech. Rules for thee but not for Nazis!

Cool!

When does it come out on DVD?

When they make the real life movie, can Lez Cheney play Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez?

Perhaps. But more importantly decent people roundly condemned it. There is no reason why decent people should not also condemn the Gosar video as well.

As usual. We MUST make sure when the Patriots (I’m refusing to say Republican) take the House again that McCarthy will be sitting at the back of the room. That man is worthless and must not be Speaker!!!

For years people told us 'I know that republican isn't perfect but he's better than the democrat, you have to vote for him'.

And here we are now. A place where a popular GOP president couldn't get anything done in a GOP controlled congress and where a ridiculed and massively disliked democrat president gets all the GOP support he needs to push through terrible bills. Thanks to those 'better than the democrat' people we sent there.

They aren't better. They tell different lies, that's the only difference. Liz Cheney is trying to be the standard bearer as a 2024 candidate who stands for openly giving the finger to the base and planning to win the nomination on the backs of the party bosses and the big money donors alone. I wouldn't be surprised if they circle the wagons and make it happen.

This is the GOP. #notmyparty

No Humans were harmed during the filming of this feature. The SPCA (society for the protection of cruelty to assholes)independently monitored the handling of both weapons and humans, including any trans. This feature gets the Golden shower of approval.

Waht Cheny and her Mini-Me Kinzinger are considering is of course disloyal and nonproductive, but Gosar was naive to think he would not get an out of proportion pushback on his little gag.

AOC and her ilk are constantly on the prowl for any reason to bash any male member of congress, especially any white male republican. He should have known better. Known that AOC can’t take a joke without overreacting as a way to get more attention.

Nancy Pelosi is more than happy to assist with this farce, as a way of apologizing to te progressives for dismantling and postponing their Build Back Better plan.

Bunk. These two aren't decent people. You're consistently on the wrong side. What's up with that? Did you even SEE the video? Bet not.
