Rep Liz Cheney (R-WY), Conference Chair (#3 position in the GOP<\/em><\/strong> House Leadership) and, of course, a legislator with far right credentials and a former VP for a Dad, has to deal with some hyenas:<\/p>\n

\n

Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., on Tuesday faced down a group of GOP Freedom Caucus critics who complained about her public\u00a0support for Dr. Anthony Fauci<\/a>\u00a0and her support for Kentucky Republican Rep. Thomas Massie\u2019s primary opponent.<\/p>\n

Cheney, chair of the House GOP Conference, defended Fauci, the nation\u2019s top infectious disease expert, during a closed-door conference meeting, according to a source familiar with her remarks.<\/p>\n

On May 12, Cheney tweeted:\u00a0<\/a>“Dr. Fauci is one of the finest public servants we have ever had. He is not a partisan. His only interest is saving lives. We need his expertise and his judgment to defeat this virus. All Americans should be thanking him. Every day.” [NBC News<\/strong><\/em><\/a>]<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Rep Matt Gaetz (R-FL), who should surely be acting in community theater rather than wasting his time in the House of Representatives, doesn’t seem repentant:<\/p>\n

\n

Liz Cheney has worked behind the scenes (and now in public) against @realDonaldTrump<\/a> and his agenda.<\/p>\n

House Republicans deserve better as our Conference Chair. <\/p>\n

Liz Cheney should step down or be removed. #MAGA<\/a><\/p>\n
