House conservatives have garnered more than 115 signatures for their petition aimed at ousting House GOP Conference Chair Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) from her leadership position in the wake of voting in favor of impeaching President Trump for inciting a riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6, a senior GOP aide told The Hill on Tuesday.
Liz Cheney wearing a suit and tie talking on a cell phone: More than half of House GOP conference sign petition to oust Liz Cheney© Greg Nash More than half of House GOP conference sign petition to oust Liz Cheney The petition - led by House Freedom Caucus Chairman Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.) and Rep. Matt Rosendale (R-Mont.) - has more than enough signatures to force a special conference meeting where proponents of the effort are looking for a debate and a vote be held on a resolution calling on Cheney to resign from her role at the leadership table. The signatures make up more than half of the entire House GOP conference.
Critics of Cheney's vote on impeachment argue that the timing of her announcement, which came a day before Wednesday's vote on impeachment, provided Democrats talking points to go after Republicans.
"Rep. Cheney did not consult with the rest of our conference before supporting impeachment," Rosendale tweeted last week.

No more “at least they’re a Republican” vote. I’d rather have a Democrat there who I know will screw me, than a Republican who lies to my face and screws me under the table. If enough of these RINOs lose, eventually the party will turn around.
We need to be principled and hold our ground.
Federal office holders can’t be recalled, but they can be primaried.
“She’ll get a sternly-worded letter, but then it will be back to business as usual.”
My guess.....double secret probation.

I agree. But there are folks still defending the useless Mike Pence tonight. There is something about the GOP that attracts the weak and prone to surrender. Not everybody has the courage to go third party with POTUS.
Liz Cheney - authentic as a Jackalope
Kevin McCarthy needs to go too.
Both are traitors.
He needs to go to
If we’re foolish enough to go back to the GOP we’d be just like the battered girlfriend who always goes back to her abuser, and even makes excuses for him: “He really loves me....He’s actually a good person...He has changed....” Usually, those become the victim’s last words before the boyfriend finally kills her.
Please tell me we’re not that stupid.
Elsewhere it was reported she spoke with her father before her vote. If she had announced several days earlier might she have influenced more Rep. votes?
But it wouldn’t be a third party. At least 90% of Republicans would move to it overnight, and quite a few current independents and Democrats might join it as well. That would instantly turn the Republican Party into the actual third party. They might even fall behind the Libertarians in membership.
The problem with trying to reform the Republican Party from within is that, just like the last election, the game is rigged. The Party’s leadership would pull every string to make it impossible for outsiders to gain any traction. The only way for the true Americans to succeed is to shove the Republicans aside and replace them with a party that WE control from the start.

Kevin is No Pelosi and the weak link to conservatism.
Amen!!
So it’s on, then? Tell me where to sign up.
He won elections in his day.
Kinda surprised any Freepers think it’s high praise to call someone a capable politician LOL!
Actually, not much worse one could say about somebody...
You’re dreaming....sorry
The Shot Heard Around The World.
I agree. If their serious they need to leave the Uniparty and either go independent or join the Patriot party when it forms, any thing else is the normal political theatre.
Dear Republican Party,
You saw what we did to Fox News when they displeased us!
Take note.
You are next.
Sincerely
The Patriot Party
Wyoming RECALL HER SORRY @$$. Git rid of her.
