Liz Cheney Calls on GOP Leadership to Condemn Madison Cawthorn's 'Bloodshed' Comments

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Congresswoman Liz Cheney is calling on Republican leadership to condemn Madison Cawthorn's recent remarks about "bloodshed" and "rigged" elections.

Speaking to a reporter Wednesday, Cheney said the freshman representative from North Carolina is using "language that seems intended to incite violence."

"I think every member ought to condemn that, and I'd like to see Leader [Kevin] McCarthy very clearly condemn it and explain how dangerous that is," Cheney said. Her comments on Cawthorn were reported by CBS reporter Zak Hudak.

Cheney was previously the No. 2 Republican in the House of Representatives, but was ousted from her position for challenging false claims about the 2020 election peddled by former President Donald Trump and others.

Condemn? They'll pin a medal on him.

1. Kevin has Zero Courage and even less ethics

He doesn't have the intellect or the balls to call out Cawthorn.

John Boehner would have smacked Cawthorn down with one hand, holding a whiskey and a cigarette in the other. I didn't like Boehner even one day a week, but he wouldn't have tolerated this BS.

2. And when the leadership doesn't condemn Cawthorn, Cheney?

What are you going to do? Fall out or fall back in line? Is this the extent of your opposition, a one-day headline? Very brave.

7. What do you suggest she do?

8. It looks like she's grabbing for a headline to me

In which case, I'd advise her to put up or shut up. As in, if nobody in her caucus (and particularly nobody in party leadership) heeds her call to condemn Rep. Cawthorne, Rep. Cheney should leave the Republican party or make common cause with the Democratic leadership. Otherwise, she's just flapping her gums for a headline, of no more consequence than Adam Kinzinger.

9. Forgo her supposed "fiscal conservatism" and quit her party until the fascists are defeated.

That would be the right thing to do.

But when it comes down to it, those tax cuts for her daddy’s and her friends are too sweet a prize to worry about a few shot up malls and schools.

3. The GOP wants to incite violence. The want citizens fighting each other.

Citizens overthrowing Biden's government.

4. They won't

Except possibly for cover. He’s saying what most republicans want.
