Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) on Friday criticized the Republican National Committee's (RNC) effort to censure Reps. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) and Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), saying he considered the move by their fellow Republicans shameful.
Romney, a leading critic of former President Trump within the Senate GOP conference, signaled his support for Cheney and Kinzinger, also both prominent Trump critics, and said in a tweet that "shame falls on a party that would censure persons of conscience, who seek truth in the face of vitriol."
He praised them for seeking answers despite the professional and personal consequences. Both Cheney and Kinzinger are serving on the House panel investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, the only two Republicans to do so.
"Honor attaches to Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger for seeking truth even when doing so comes at great personal cost," he added.

Both Cheney and Kinzinger issued strong statements in response to the RNC resolution.
In a statement, Kinzinger said he is now "even more committed to fighting conspiracies and lies."
"I’m a constitutional conservative and I do not recognize those in my party who have abandoned the Constitution to embrace Donald Trump," Cheney said in a statement on Thursday.

I wish they would all just go away. They are so out of touch.
Let’s censure him next
Wasn’t he censured by his own state party? This guy is a POS on the order of mcstain.
all predictable. These are the GOPe remnants circling the wagons for their ultimate defeat.
They should start their own party. Numbnuts R Us.
Watch it, Mitt. Do you want some of this same treatment? That can be arranged.
Sounds like his magic underwear is in a bunch. And to think...... Were we really better off with obxxx and a 2nd racis’ term in office?
Show your colors Mitt, there may be a few people left who don’t know what an un-American idiot you are.
Nothing to do with Trump, these doofs have never supported conservatism and actively oppose it - long before Trump came along.
Pierre Defecto can go phuque himself.
Hopefully the primaries this year will take care of that. I can't see how anyone who voted for Trump in 2020 is going to vote for a RINO-traitor in the primaries this year. There is an undercurrent of seething hatred for the RINOs who facilitated the Steal. The lamestream media thinks if it doesn't report on it, then it's not real. I think there is going to be a RINO bloodbath this primary season. Democrats are worried about a red wave in the Midterms, but it's the RINOs who are going to be sent packing in the primaries.
We MUST stop electing Bush League Republicans, even if Trump endorses them, like he did with Romney.
They will treat Mittens with mittens as long as there is a fragile 50-50 balance in the Senate. Censuring a couple of House members while they are down by 10 won’t matter much.
RINOs of a feather
I coulda gone a awhile longer...
He wants the continuing invitations to the “great parties” so he can hobnob with his fellow whizzards and drink Dr. Oz’s Jamba Juice.
He should crawl back to his commie hole.
Just one question Liz and Adam:
Are you happy that Joe Biden is the President and has he made America a better place?
