We are all Liz Cheney today. 

We are also living in the upside down.

What A Load of BS From Trump's Defense Secretary!

Two senior Trump administration officials defended their actions during the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol in testimony before Congress on Wednesday, with former acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller standing behind every decision he made that day.

Miller told the House Oversight Committee that he was concerned before the insurrection that sending troops to the building could fan fears of a military coup and cause a repeat of the deadly Kent State shootings.

What's Next? Shoot The Fact Checkers?
A Trump-loving Michigan Republican is declaring war on the people who tell him when he's wrong.

The Detroit News reports that Michigan Rep. Matt Maddock has filed a new bill called the "Fact Checker Registration Act" that would force fact checkers to register with the state and would subject them to $1,000 daily fines if they are found to have made mistakes.

Cheney, Romney, Sasse, Toomey, Collins, Murkowski, and those republicans who "oppose" Trump? They fully embrace and advance their party's toxic platform of nationalism, exclusion, and obstruction. They embrace all of Trump's policies. 

They just don't like TRUMP. - Stonekettle

Old School Republicans Want To Start A New Party. Democrats Are Ecstatic.

Over 100 former Republican officials will sign a letter on Thursday declaring that if the Republican Party does not break with former President Donald Trump and change course, they will back the creation of a third party.

The letter, headlined: "A Call For American Renewal," is an exploratory move toward forming a breakaway party, two of its organizers said. The group is dismayed by what it says is a modern Republican Party driven by its allegiance to Trump, who continues to falsely claim the 2020 election was stolen from him.

When Liz Cheney stands up and denounces the policies of the Bush Administration and the lies her father told, AND IS STILL TELLING, lies that sent people like me to war and killed half a million Iraqis, THEN you can call her a hero

Until then, she's just another Republican. - Stonekettle
