A group of Michigan members of Congress are seeking an intelligence briefing on the redeployment of the Michigan National Guard to Washington, D.C.
The group led by Congressman Bill Huizenga (R-MI 2nd District) said the number of guardsman being deployed has increased to 1,000. Their letter requests a briefing on the “justification for not only redeploying the Michigan National Guard to Washington, D.C. but also significantly increasing the number of troops being sent from Michigan.”
Gaetz Targets Cheney Over Impeachment Vote at Rally in Her Home State
Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) called for voters to vote Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) out of office during a rally in Wyoming on Thursday.
“In a lot of ways, Liz Cheney is exactly like Congress: deeply unpopular and owned by special interests,” Gaetz told a crowd of hundreds during a rally in Cheyenne.
Cheney has faced strong pushback after joining Democrats to impeach then-President Donald Trump earlier this month. She took the caucus by surprise when she announced her decision because she didn’t reveal what she was planning with Republican leadership, according to House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.).
