Never forget Liz Cheney has always known the truth, 'You fucking did this.' (to Jim Jordan 1/6/21)




Liz Cheney smacked GOP Rep. Jim Jordan's hand away when he tried to escort her during the
Capitol riot, telling him,'You fucking did this.'

If proven to be true why should any of these people be allowed to sit in Congress. They supported a violent coup whose
purpose it was might have been the killing the Speaker of the House and the Vice President, cause massive violence and
bloodshed, in order to allow Trump to declare martial law in and stop the Constitutionally mandated peaceful change of power.

I'm glad she has some sort of standards. But uncle Dick and his two wars (based on lies) have probably hurt the country as bad as Trump did.

Jim Jordan is just white trash.

White House. She talked about how laser focused, how tenacious Cheney can be when she is committed to something. Nicole said she see that same tenacity in how Cheney is approaching her responsibilities on the Jan 6th committee. I'm not a fan of her politics, and I'm sure she'll piss me off sometime in the (probably not too distant) future. However, for now, I'm damn glad she's on our side.

I give Liz Cheney a lot of credit for actually acting on it. It takes a lot of guts to stand up to the Trump Party. I believe in giving credit where credit is due, no matter their politics, and she is a true patriot for standing up for Democracy in this way.

I am comfortable despising her politics at the same time.

The same thing popped up in my head this morning. And last night Cobert showed the video of a reporter asking Jordon, “did you call trump on Jan 6th?” Homina homina homina homina homina blah blah blah blah. If ya had a child stutter and stammer that much with the I don’t know’s, you would send him off to military school for the depth of lies.
Jordon is top the list of treason firing squad candidates, after trump and Meadow's maybe. He is below the surface scum, that aged moldy scum rotting below. AND the Minority leader insisted Jordon be on the committee. That criminal asshole knows how deep this goes and McCarthy NEEDS to destroy the commission to protect his whole damn KKKlan.

It requires more than a simple majority to expunge them.

Another way they could be ousted if they were charged and convicted of sedition or insurrection.

Where is the DOJ on this?

She was outraged then and continues to be outraged. She's one of the few Republicans willing to put her Congress position on the line to nail these traitors.

Lots can be said about Liz Cheney's policy beliefs. But the woman has proven she has a moral compass. Too bad there are so few in the GOP willing to follow her example.
