The battle for the soul of the GOP: Reps. Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Greene tear into their OWN party in rally at Florida's The Villages as they raise the stakes in Republican civil war with 'America First Tour'

Firebrand Republican Reps. Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Greene have torn into their GOP colleagues at a red-meat-filled rally, in an ambitious attempt to force party leadership to fall in line with their pro-Trump faction of the party.

'Today, we send a strong message to the weak establishment in both parties: America First isn't going away. We are going on tour,' Gaetz said.

It comes as House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, who is focused on winning back GOP control of the House next year, faces tough decisions about whether siding with the populist faction represented by Gaetz and Greene will help or hurt the party in the midterms.

Firebrand Republican Reps. Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Greene held the first event of their 'America First Tour' on Friday, as they put pressure on party leadership in the GOP civil war

Gaetz, a third-term Floridian, and Greene, a Georgia freshman, have attracted more public attention lately than most junior members of Congress - and now they are hoping to harness their high profiles to rally the party base and strike fear into leadership.

At Friday's rally, Gaetz and Greene did lob attacks at standard nemeses including Democratic Reps. Maxine Waters and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Greene reiterated her call to impeach President Joe Biden.

'If Liz Cheney could even find Wyoming on a map and went there, she would find a lot of very angry cowboys who are not happy with the fact that she's sorta for every war,' said Gaetz, referring to Cheney's home district.

'When somebody's fundamental view is that we don't need to work on election integrity, we don't need to worry about the crisis at the border, we could find four more countries to invade before lunchtime tomorrow - that person should not be the spokesperson for the Republican Party,' Gaetz said of Cheney.

We're Replacing Liz Cheney With a Pro-Abort, Anti-Border Wall, Pro-Transgender, Anti-Religious Freedom Republican and We're Supposed to Be Happy?

It appears that Vichy Republican Liz Cheney’s tenure as chairwoman of the House Republican Conference is about to come to an ignominious end with her being defenestrated by her colleagues. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy has made it clear that he’s had enough of her self-important and self-righteous grandstanding and will not whip votes to support her like he did earlier in the year. For background, read Liz Cheney’s Response to Kevin McCarthy Shows Exactly Why the GOP Needs to Cut Her From Leadership, Kevin McCarthy Has a Hot Mic Moment, Speaks Absolute Truth About Liz Cheney, and Liz Cheney Does Liz Cheney Things Again, and Her Colleagues Are Just About Done.

My personal view is that Cheney being stripped of a leadership position is months overdue. Her clownish behavior is fanning an internal conflict in the GOP rather than concentrating on taking aback the House next year. I also believe that Cheney’s entitled behavior that treats her House seat as though it was some sort of patrimony rather than a public trust is out of step with the new GOP. That said, I’m more than a little unsure as to why Elise Stefanik is the solution.

The president and VP are both just terrible elected officials in their leadership skills....

To describe what they are doing as 'leadership' shows a complete lack of understanding of that word. He's a puppet, and she's waiting for him to die.

She was appointed his border czar. A few weeks later she was doing something with the space force or some such. Someone on CNBC said she was closer to going into space than going to the border.

Kevin McCarthy Officially Schedules Wednesday Vote to Oust Liz Cheney from GOP leadership as he paves the way for Elise Stefanik to take over her role

Kevin McCarthy on Monday sent a letter to Republican colleagues officially scheduling the GOP Conference vote to oust chairman Liz Cheney from party leadership for Wednesday.

Republicans in the lower chamber are preparing to vote out Wyoming Rep. Cheney from her No. 3 post after she doubled down on her criticism of former President Donald Trump in the months following the January 6 Capitol attack.

Cheney was one of the 10 Republicans in the House who voted to impeach Trump after the riot. She also publicly increased her rhetoric against him in a fiery op/ed last week and a tweet where she responded to a statement from the former president about her.

She is required by federal law to be chair of the National Space Council, same as Pence was. It is a law passed back in 89 that the VP must chair the NSC.

LOL
Yeah, so? There is also a gigantic crisis at the southern border that she has refused to even comment on much less inspect. Of course some would say that it is becoming a catastrophe, but I guess in your eyes, it is much ado about nothing...

You want to criticize her for the border stuff, go for it.

Liz Cheney Defiant in floor speech ahead of House GOP vote to oust her as conference chair

Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., warned fellow Republicans on Tuesday that American democracy faces a threat it has "never seen before" in a defiant floor speech on the eve of a vote that is expected to result in her removal from the role of House Republican Conference Chair.

Cheney, who lost support from fellow GOP leaders in recent weeks amid a public feud with former President Donald Trump, said her stand was driven by a "reverence for the rule of law." In a scathing six-minute speech, the Wyoming Republican said Trump "risks inciting further violence" and had "misled" millions of Americans with disproven claims that the results of the 2020 presidential election were fraudulent.

House Republicans are expected to vote Wednesday to oust Cheney from the party’s No. 3 leadership position and replace her with Rep. Elise Stefanik of New York, a prominent Trump ally. Top Republicans, including House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and Minority Whip Steve Scalise, have expressed support for Stefanik in recent days.

Chip Roy weighs a last-minute challenge to Stefanik for House GOP No. 3

Texas Rep. Chip Roy is considering launching a bid for House GOP conference chair, according to multiple Republican sources, as conservatives fret that the party is moving too quickly to anoint a successor to newly deposed Liz Cheney.

Roy, a member of the hard-line Freedom Caucus, is one of several conservatives to publicly express concern about elevating Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.), a moderate turned Donald Trump ally who's moving swiftly to lock down support for the No. 3 post. Notably, Stefanik has the backing of the former president and GOP leaders.

Undaunted, Roy sent a memo to every Republican office in the conference on Tuesday arguing that Stefanik should not be serving in leadership and ticking off a long list of issues with her voting record. He also had been pushing for a delay in the election to replace Cheney (R-Wyo.), which will take place later this week.
