Liz Cheney Wins Big, Matt Gaetz Hardest Hit

On Wednesday morning, Florida GOP congressman Matt Gaetz said on Steve Bannon’s podcast that a majority of House Republicans were ready to kick Wyoming representative Liz Cheney out of House GOP leadership because she voted to impeach Donald Trump for inciting the January 6 Capitol riot.

“My concern is that though today we have the votes to remove Liz Cheney, somehow the establishment’s going to find a way to kick the question, avoid a vote,” said Gaetz, who had flown to Wyoming last week to hold an anti-Cheney rally.
