House Republicans voted on Wednesday to keep Rep. Liz Cheney in GOP leadership despite her vote to impeach former President Donald Trump last month,
with a strong majority of the conference rejecting the challenge from Trump allies to punish the Wyoming Republican. The conference voted 145-61 in a secret ballot, after members spent hours venting frustrations about Cheney's vote, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's past support for conspiracy theories and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy's leadership of the conference following Trump's defeat.

McCarthy, who has been criticized by colleagues for shifting statements about Trump's responsibility for the storming of the Capitol, endorsed Cheney and encouraged Republicans to keep her on the leadership team.
