WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Representative Liz Cheney warned on Wednesday that her Republican Party is at a turning point as it prepares to try to remove her from leadership for rejecting former President Donald Trump s false claims the election was stolen from him.
The No. 3 House Republican s warning came in an opinion column published in the Washington Post as top members of her party, including Trump and No. 2 House Republican Steve Scalise, publicly endorsed Representative Elise Stefanik for Cheney s job as chair of the party s conference. A vote could come as early as next Wednesday.
