In censure of Cheney and Kinzinger, GOP frames Jan. 6 riot as 'legitimate political discourse'


“I’m a constitutional conservative and I do not recognize those in my party who have abandoned the Constitution to embrace Donald Trump. History will be their judge. I will never stop fighting for our constitutional republic. No matter what.”

Upon learning of the wording used in the censure resolution, she then posted a response on Twitter.

In all, just 17 Republican lawmakers voted in 2021 to impeach or convict Trump for his role in the Jan. 6 attack. Democrats, along with Cheney and Kinzinger, are continuing to investigate how far the plan to overturn the 2020 election extended.

In theory, the committee's work could lead it to file a criminal referral for Trump to the Department of Justice, but even primetime hearings detailing Trump's efforts to keep Biden from becoming president could offer a serious impediment should Trump decide to seek reelection in 2024.

For Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, who twice voted to impeach Trump, the censure of Cheney and Kinzinger is an ominous sign for the party he represented as its presidential nominee in 2012. Romney's niece Ronna Romney McDaniel is the current chairwoman of the GOP and a staunch Trump ally.

Shame falls on a party that would censure persons of conscience, who seek truth in the face of vitriol. Honor attaches to Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger for seeking truth even when doing so comes at great personal cost.

Most Republican lawmakers remained silent in the immediate aftermath of the resolution, although Sen. Bill Cassidy, R-La., also criticized the RNC's decision. Cassidy and Romney are two of the seven GOP senators who voted to convict Trump after the Capitol riot.

Read the full censure resolution below:

"Sheinbaum, a leftwing climate scientist and former mayor of Mexico City, won the presidency with between 58.3% and 60.7% of the vote, according to a rapid sample count by Mexico’s electoral authority.

The ruling coalition led by Sheinbaum’s Morena party was also on track for a possible two-thirds super-majority in both houses of Congress, which would allow the coalition to pass constitutional reforms without opposition support."

He figured it out too late and now has nothing left to lose.

"When the useful idiots realize they are not going to be in charge, they become the most bitter of enemies."

Scott had his come to jesus moment. Good for you scott.

Would it really be different if only men or even if only landowners could vote?

I am trying to figure out why libs vote Kamala. I really am. And the bottom line I keep seeing is “I know I’m wrong, I know everything I believe and say about Trump is a falsehood, but I have “my” vote and it’s all powerful and I’m just going to vote against you”

Folks this is a completely morally wrong system. People who can’t vote morally, responsibly, or aren’t smart enough to do the two prior should not be voting. If they are, this is a morally bankrupt system and also a reckless endangerment of a system.
