House Republicans will vote on Wednesday to remove Rep. Liz Cheney (R–Wyo) as the number three Republican.
“It had been my hope that our driving focus would be taking back the House in 2022 and implementing our Commitment to America. Despite the mainstream media working overtime against us, I believe we still have a great chance to do so. Unfortunately, each day spent relitigating the past is one day less we have to seize the future,” House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy said in a Monday letter to House GOP colleagues.
“This is no time to take our eye off the ball. If we are to succeed in stopping the radical Democrat agenda from destroying our country, these internal conflicts need to be resolved so as to not detract from the efforts of our collective team,” he continued.
“Having heard from so many of you in recent days, it’s clear that we need to make a change. As such, you should anticipate a vote on recalling the Conference Chair this Wednesday.”
Ironically, McCarthy also claims in the letter that “unlike the left”, the GOP and the Republican caucus ” embrace free speech and thought”
Trump, McCarthy and Minority Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.) have all endorsed Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.), a key Trump ally, to replace Cheney as Conference chair once she is successfully ousted.
