Garcia: Cheney and Larson are united in their alienation from the GOP
FacebookTwitterEmail
Liz Cheney and Lyle Larson have a lot in common.
They are both Republican lawmakers with long, deep histories in party politics.
Cheney, the U.S. representative from Wyoming, has a father who served as vice president of the United States, a member of Congress and a chief of staff for the late President Gerald Ford.
Larson, the San Antonio-based state representative, worked at the age of 19 on his dad’s unsuccessful 1978 GOP campaign for Congress.
Both of them are stalwart, traditional conservatives. Cheney has a 91 percent conservative ranking from Heritage Action and 78 percent from the American Conservative Union.
Patrick Hart, who ran unsuccessfully for state auditor last year will take over for Kylie Oversen, who announced in March she would not run again after six years at the helm. Hart served as the party's vice chair before Saturday and works as a small business owner in Bismarck.
U.S. expands effort to allow in vulnerable migrants at Mexico border Reuters 2 days ago
By Kristina Cooke, Mica Rosenberg and Ted Hesson
SAN FRANCISCO, May 6 (Reuters) - The United States has begun rolling out a new system to identify and admit the most vulnerable migrants at ports of entry along the U.S.-Mexico border, according to three people briefed on the matter.
The new system, which started at the port of entry in El Paso, Texas, this week, creates a more formal process that allows pre-screened asylum seekers to enter the United States on humanitarian grounds, despite a broad policy of expulsions at the border.

MRC Pres. Brent Bozell
The decision by Facebook’s Oversight Board to allow its platform to continue to ban former Republican President Donald Trump is a boon for censorship of conservative speech, setting the stage for interference with the 2024 election, Media Research Center President Brent Bozell said Wednesday.
After the board upheld Facebook’s decision to suspend Trump’s ability to post on his Facebook and Instagram accounts, Bozell voiced his reaction in a Twitter post:
“Another win for censorship and the suppression of dissenting voices, and a loss for free speech. Facebook also gets its first opportunity to interfere with the 2024 election.”
