House conservatives are renewing their calls for Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) to step down from her leadership post after she split with House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) over whether former President Trump should speak at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC).
House Freedom Caucus members are going after Cheney, chair of the House Republican Conference, following an awkward moment during a press conference Wednesday with the House GOP leader. Just moments after McCarthy said he thought Trump should speak at the CPAC gathering this weekend in Florida, Cheney reiterated her position that she does not think the former president should have a place in the Republican Party because of his role in the deadly insurrection at the Capitol on Jan. 6.
"That was one of the most outrageous statements, but it's consistent with at least four other statements she's made in the last few weeks. As you know, some of us in this group led a charge to remove Ms. Cheney as the chairwoman leader of the Republican conference. I do not believe she is able to carry that out any further," House Freedom Caucus Chairman Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.) said at a press conference on Thursday.
"I also think she's absolutely devoid of any kind of political reading of what's going on in the Republican Party in this country right now," he added. "My guess is there's probably no room in the party for somebody who takes the positions that Ms. Cheney does and that makes the accusations that she does. She should step down - if she had any sense of shame, she would step down."

That my friend is a great idea !
I absolutely agree with you. I want to send that message to them so forcefully that they are screaming at each other behind closed doors that they can never cross us so brazenly again.
Once you understand that like the Democrat party, Liz Cheney (and the rest of the never Trumpers) is completely devoid of reality it all makes sense.
Liz needs to resign from being a Republican Representative from Wyoming, because she is a GLOBALIST. Did she vote for the Equality Act, which isn’t Equality?
And that would be to find three or four “Republicans” to challenge her in the primary. If she can, she wins the primary.
She wants to be a host on The View like her friend Meghan McCain...😃
I have heard that someone announced his candidacy for Liz seat... is that true? I might donate...
Yes, that's the standard Swamp play.
That's when the Wyoming conservatives fix bayonets and vote for the Democrat.
A 20 percent swing is nothing to sneeze at.
I got to email this MORON why he did... His district might be be changed next year... I’m going to call my state senator and ask if his district can be changed and put his house in a D district... 😃

We'll have to work on them to pledge to drop out if it looks like they haven't got a chance and support the other.
One or two more candidates declare, and we know the fix is in.
145 voted to keep her in leadership.
GOP - RIP
McCarthy is backing her and the caucus backed her. Cheney is going nowhere.
**** around and find out.
Haley’s a lowlife. Cheney, on the other hand, at least has the courage of her convictions.
Cheney is the female version of Mitt Romney.
What happened to Dick?
Last I read, she’s polling at 13% in Wyoming.
Trump hasn’t made any CPAC remarks this year.
Given Lizzie Perry's tenure in the deep State Department, we have the swamp right in the midst of the GOPe... Her daddy made a boat load of dollars off swamp business... so what ventures is Lizzie banking ...
She probably paid those “Tea Party” people to tout her.
The “Tea Party” turned into a big joke, the party establishment just took over the brand, all you had to do was self-proclaim that you were “Tea Party”.
