There are enough votes to remove Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) from her position as House GOP Conference chair, according to top House Republican member Jim Jordan.
Cheney is the No. 3 GOP member and is working against the party by trashing the former president and the America First agenda.
Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), the ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, explained why she has to go in a Wednesday appearance on Fox News.
“You can’t have a Republican conference chair reciting Democrat talking points. You can’t have a Republican conference chair taking a position that 90 percent of the party disagrees with, and you can’t have a Republican Party chair consistently speaking out against the individual who 74 million Americans voted for,” he said.

The number 2 Republican in the House of Representatives is calling for the replacement of Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) in the House GOP leadership team over her continued negative remarks about former President Donald Trump.
“House Republicans need to be solely focused on taking back the House in 2022 and fighting against Speaker [Nancy] Pelosi and President [Joe] Biden’s radical socialist agenda, and Elise Stefanik is strongly committed to doing that, which is why Whip Scalise has pledged to support her for Conference Chair,” Lauren Fine, a spokesperson for House Republican Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.), told The Epoch Times via email on Wednesday.
