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.

Two Republicans who only won, because of grassroots conservatives. I’m sure Dick is proud of Liz.
Gosar and Kinzinger both have sibling issues.
They’re probably trying to up that payout they’ve been promised when they get kicked to the curb by the voters (or gerrymandered out of a job, in one case).
Let us not forget that said person was a never Trumper and used to disrupt the Trump Rally Live Threads.
“Cheney and Kinzinger have frequently criticized their own party” Funny, I can’t recall them ever criticizing the democrat party.
It was his staff that made it, or so his tweet said. I can’t believe the double standards that occupy the minds of even the people on FR. This wasn’t a big deal at all.
Yeah that's what Kathy Griffin said too.
And recall that AOC and Ilhan Omar making blatantly racist statements were NOT censured.
In fact Pelosi went out of her way to say she would not censure them.
I saw the video - what was offensive about it?
Doodledawg is a she. She has been banned before. Ask her about “assault weapon bans” which she claims are “constitutional.”
She. Not He.
She or he, still a troll.
I don’t think it’s a good idea to show candidates killing each other. Doesn’t that seem childish? AOC has done a lot of bad/illegal things, or so “our” press informs us. Why is she still in office? Don’t give her and her buds a reason to whine. Go through legal channels to remove her from office or JSTFU. (If she hasn’t done those things - i.e., campaign finance shenanigans - then why are we talking about her? If it’s “because she’s good-looking” then just forget it. She and IllHands should have been ousted from office as of a couple of years ago. Yes?)
Did either of them say anything regarding, oh, for example, Kathy Griffin's murder fantasy?
If you find it, please ping me, and I’ll do the same.
This would appear to be it.
