Liz Cheney ousted from role as House GOP Conference chair; replacement still unclear
Posted By: Jack Garrison, 5/12/2021 10:56:31 AM
House Republicans ousted Rep. Liz Cheney Wednesday morning in a closed-door vote from the No. 3 spot from leadership -- but the Wyoming Republican remained defiant on the way out. Cheney had remained steadfast in her opposition to former President Donald Trump and his "dangerous lies" about the 2020 election being stolen from him -- putting her at odds with other House Republicans who wanted to move on from the Jan. 6 riot and unite the party to win in the 2022 midterms. Cheney was removed by a voice vote and took a swing at Trump after the Capitol meeting.

Virtually every day we see new examples of our friends on the left overplaying their hands as they engage in wild exaggerations. They told us Donald Trump is a Nazi. (No, he isn’t, because a true Nazi leader would have thrown you in a concentration camp for criticizing him.) They’ve told us if we use the ‘OK’ hand signal then we’re White Supremacists. (No, that’s been a gesture which has been used for over a century indicating “all is well.”) And they accuse us of being

At the risk of modeling a “soft bigotry of low expectations” and/or sounding racist, here goes nothing: I recently learned that there are several majority-black, upper-class communities in America. And I am not talking like an inversion of George Floyd Square that encompasses a few blocks; I am talking entire developments and dedicated city areas. It’s not necessarily surprising given the profundity of opportunity in and greatness of this country, and yet I genuinely didn’t know such prosperous communities existed. CORRECTION*
The Fairfax County school board in northern Virginia ordered an upset parent raising objections to state-sanctioned racism called critical race theory in their schools to “go to your seat.”
The altercation took place Thursday, after former Wall Street Journal reporter and local parent Asra Nomani spent three minutes scolding school officials for their blatant double-standards in pursuit of “antiracism” that endorses racism and cultural erasure.
Headline #1: Facebook’s Kangaroo Court Affirms Trump Suspension
On Wednesday, an entity known as the Facebook Oversight Board ruled that the social media giant’s suspension of former President Donald Trump immediately following the January 6th Capitol riot was the correct decision, and stated that a permanent ban should be decided by company leadership.
Thoughts and Observations:
Members of this so-called “board” were appointed by Facebook leadership, who are overwhelmingly leftist Democrats. Naturally, those who were appointed...
More Proof The Chauvin Case Was A Farce

As jurors begin the process of cashing in on fame and fortune, one of the twelve tasked with interpreting three weeks of intricate, conflicting evidence – a process that would determine a man’s freedom or incarceration – claimed that the verdicts could have come back in about twenty minutes. The only holdup was helping a single jurist (who is praying their identity isn’t revealed) decipher one aspect of jury instructions.
Top 10 Absurdities of the COVID Pandemic

President Joe Biden and the Democratic Party may be in denial, but the truth is unavoidable. For all intents and purposes, the COVID-19 pandemic which has ravaged our country and our economy for fourteen months is over. As we prepare to close the book on the nightmare it has been, let’s pause for a moment with the Top Ten list for the Month of May to reflect on some of the most ridiculous aspects of the handling of the coronavirus outbreak.
#10 – One-way traffic rules in supermarket aisles –
Prior to the Civil Rights Act of 1964 – a law that was passed by an overwhelmingly white Congress and signed by a white president – separating students according to the color of their skin was commonplace, particularly in southern states. Laws that had become known collectively as “Jim Crow” were designed to divide us by race. Black students attended ‘colored’ schools, which had colored teachers and colored sports teams, while white students learned in white schools. After 1964, as the integration of everything from schools to water fountains advanced, and as we moved on from the bigotry of Jim Crow, America’s…CORRECTIONS*
You know it’s going to be a great week when we start out talking about how Kamala is just SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO excited to go to the border. She’s just not been able to go because of Covid, y’all.
I can’t.
Anywho, the Oscars are so woke, they’re a caricature of themselves at this point. And of course, we have more Monday news about disintegrating race relations in this country. Because liberals.

More than 150 Republicans have signed on to a letter calling for people to 'reimagine a party dedicated to our founding ideals or else hasten the creation of such an alternative.' The letter, organized by former 'Anonymous' op-ed author Miles Taylor and former CIA officer Evan McMullin, mentions the ouster Wednesday of former GOP conference chair Rep. Liz Cheney. It raises the possibility of a complete break with the GOP and the creation of a third party in the face of what the signers term 'despotism.'
The removal of Liz Cheney from her House leadership position isn’t going over well with the Never Trump faction of the GOP. They have obviously failed miserably in their effort to reassert establishment control over the party. With the vote on the embattled Wyoming congresswoman’s fate expected to take place on Wednesday, over 100 “Republicans” have prepared a letter threatening to start their own political party if the GOP does “not make certain changes.”The existence of the group was reported by the New York Times, which also published the infamous op-ed that was written by a Department Of Homeland Security official

From May 5th to June 29th, New York’s Rockefeller Center will be showcasing a new piece of artwork — a sculpture, to be exact — that reportedly combines a European-styled body with a face that resembles a traditional African mask.Known as the Oracle sculpture, it was made by artist Sanford Biggers and commissioned by the Art Production Fund. Speaking with Artnet, Biggers said that one of his goals was to add some African culture to the mix.“Biggers sees his work as as a companion of sorts to three of Rockefeller Center’s most prominent artworks: the Zeus relief sculpture at the entrance of 30 Rock,
It was said during our Mideast military adventures, and has been considered a truism of war, that you can’t really win a conflict without “boots on the ground.” For it’s difficult to completely subdue a people from afar. It may not be too different with battles for civilization. (snip) If you heard about a Third World country in which the leadership was purging the military of political opponents, would you assume it was just an exercise in ideological nepotism? (snip) So you need a purge. You do this by conjuring up a boogeyman — in our case “white supremacy”
House Republicans planted themselves firmly in the camp of Donald Trump on Wednesday when they removed Rep. Liz Cheney from their leadership team after her criticism of the former president.
In a closed-door meeting in the basement of the Capitol, Republicans voted to oust Cheney after she repeatedly called out Trump's false claims he won the election and criticized his role in the January 6 insurrection.
After a voice vote, Cheney said: ‘I will do everything I can to ensure that the former president never again, is anywhere near the Oval Office.’ Cheney had addressed Republicans in the room before the vote.

The new 25 foot-tall statue unveiled in New York City’s Rockefeller Center to honor “African culture” was unveiled this week. (Tweets/Video) Eurweb reported on the project. This spring, multiple disciplinary artist Sanford Biggers will transform Rockefeller Center with several public art exhibitions, including the highly anticipated monumental Oracle sculpture.

A group of more than 120 retired military officers have written President Joe Biden to tell him his election was less than legitimate – while questioning his mental acuity.
The letter echoes former President Donald Trump's claims of widespread election fraud – which have not been borne out in the courts – and comes on a day when Rep. Liz Cheney ripped Trump for his claim that the election was 'stolen.' 'Without fair and honest elections that accurately reflect the 'will of the people' our Constitutional Republic is lost,' the letter from retired officers says.
Colonial Pipeline Co. paid the group that hacked its pipeline a nearly $5 million ransom in untraceable cryptocurrency within hours of the cyberattack, two people familiar with the payment told Bloomberg on Thursday.
The report contradicts Colonial’s public assertion that it did not pay the hacking group Darkside ransom following the cyberattack. A third person familiar with the ransom said the U.S. government is aware Colonial paid Darkside.
Colonial declined Bloomberg‘s request for comment.
The attack forced Colonial to temporarily shut down much of its services, causing gas shortages and rising prices across the east coast.
You have to love liberal media. President Donald Trump is no longer in office, but he’s still living rent free in their heads. They’re still completely obsessed with him and basically can’t live without him. They always need him as a focal point.
The New York Times ran this “gotcha” story today, as though it were something truly significant, “Over 100 Republicans, including former officials, threaten to split from G.O.P.”
What is the issue, the New York Times says? The fact that the GOP still is supportive of Trump.
“This is a first step,” said Miles Taylor,
On the day after House Republicans voted overwhelmingly to remove her from a leadership position, Liz Cheney made it clear that she isn’t going anywhere and could mount a 2024 White House run.The embittered Wyoming congresswoman (who is the toast of the town in the D.C. swamp) embarked on a string of media appearances to spew venom against former President Donald J. Trump and his supporters.Cheney appeared on NBC flagship the TODAY show where she dug in as the last line of defense by the Bush-McCain-Romney establishment. The same warmongers that have failed to regain control of the GOP from Trump,
Actress Jennifer Garner greeted Jill Biden when the first lady landed in West Virginia on Thursday to visit a vaccination clinic for students. Biden, in accordance with new CDC guidelines, exited the plane without a face mask. She wore a white dress with a soft pink blazer over it. And she wore a pink face mask when she departed Washington D.C. earlier in the day. Jennifer Garner, wearing a black dress, had a face mask on but took hers off when she saw the situation.
'We feel naked,' the first lady said about not wearing a mask. Then she paused. 'I didn't mean it that way!'
FOX News anchor Bret Baier, never a huge Trump fan, joined Varney and Co. on Wednesday morning following the House GOP vote to remove Liz Cheney from leadership.Cheney was ousted from leadership in a voice vote. She then ran to the media to attack and smear President Trump and carry the Democrat message to America.What a sick, sick woman.Bret Baier said 100 GOP lawmakers may form a new political party. He said this with a straight face! Hah!

It's a shame, but it needed to happen. The country is falling apart, Dems are trying to destroy us, and all Liz wants to talk about is Trump. That shouldn't be the priority of any Republican, let alone someone in a leadership position.
