House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy threatened to pull all five of his Republican picks from the select committee to investigate the riot on Capitol Hill. His threat came after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi objected to seating two of his choices.

So would Wyoming Representative Liz Cheney back Pelosi’s derision, or would she back her own Republican party's decision?

Well, at this point, Liz is doing what she wants to do, both parties be dammed. She seems to be at war with almost everyone. But she has never been uncomfortable with that.

So she took to the steps of the capital and let both sides have it. You can see what she had to say in the video, below.

In her statement, she claims that a “vast majority” of Republicans across the country recognize that the insurrection was an assault on the Constitution and American democracy. Well- actually that is not what Republicans across the country are saying.

If she is attacking all sides at this point then she is almost all alone. I say almost because she has been raising a lot of money which shows that she does have a lot of supporters. In fact, as I reported to you just a week ago she has set fundraising records.

But how does that translate back home?

Most of the money she has raised seems to have come from out of state. But that does not mean that she does not have her Wyoming supporters.

Former president will endorse anyone but Liz Cheney. Trump is about to meet with a few of the candidates running against her back in Wyoming. He will endorse one of them.

Former President Donald Trump will meet with a few of Wyoming U.S. Rep. Liz Cheney’s primary opponents next week. Trump is looking for which one he might endorse. While endorsements usually don't make any kind of a difference in political races, this one will certainly be the exception.

The announcement was made on Donald Trump's website.

“Paying close attention to the Wyoming House Primary against loser RINO Liz Cheney,” Trump said on Tuesday. “Some highly respected pollsters tell me she’s toast in Wyoming after siding with Crazy Nancy Pelosi and supporting the Democrat Impeachment Hoax. And that’s just the beginning! This is a “hot” race with some very interesting candidates running against her. Remember though, in the end we just want ONE CANDIDATE running against Cheney.”

What is not mentioned in the statement is who the former president will be meeting with. There are more candidates in the race than people know about. So has he selected just a few of the top runners or will he meet with them all?
