Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) appeared on former Donald Trump aide and white supremacist sympathizer Steve Bannon's podcast on Thursday to make her case for ousting Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) from the No. 3 spot in House GOP leadership.

In the process, Stefanik spread election lies by endorsing the shoddy and conspiracy theory-fueled audit of Arizona's election results, which the Department of Justice said may be running afoul of federal law.

Stefanik is seeking to oust Cheney from GOP leadership while Republicans are mad that Cheney won't support Trump's lies about the 2020 election.

Cheney has been vocal in saying Trump's voter fraud lies are damaging to democracy, and that she believes he should be disqualified from leading the Republican Party after he helped incite the Capitol insurrection.

Stefanik, on the other hand, is embracing Trump. Throughout the interview, the congresswoman continually referred to Trump as "the president."

3. She is not stupid. She is telling stupid people what they want to hear.

Much like Tucker.

2. What a piece of work. She's naked ambition on display...

as she got elected as moderate, critical of trump...then saw an opening into leadership/power and is suddenly a foaming at the mouth trumper.

This woman is dangerous, no principles, willing to switch positions at the drop of an insurrection, and a nod from trump.

8. Can't her district be re-drawn?

The Dems run NY and are losing a seat. Why can't they draw out her district or make it much more Democratic?
