GOP divided over Liz Cheney's future

Republicans are divided over the future of House Republican Conference Chairwoman Liz Cheney (Wyo.) after her vote Wednesday to impeach President Trump.

Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.), the leader of the conservative House Freedom Caucus, and Rep. Matt Rosendale (R-Mont.) are circulating a petition that seeks to force Cheney out of her leadership role for her decision, which she called a "vote of conscience."

They say her decision to announce her position a day before the vote gave Democrats talking points to go after Republicans.

Cheney didn't take part in the floor debate, but she was mentioned repeatedly by Democratic speakers. Several Republicans noted the remarks by House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.), who cited Cheney as he made the case for Trump's impeachment.

His letter with the former SECDEFs and Liz Cheney's self-destruction on impeachment in the GOP caucus are tough to explain unless they saw something and something really fucking bad.
