Liz Cheney was not the only Republican that voted for impeachment, yet, she was the only one placed in the dock.
The same is true of extremists like Greene. There were 150 House Republicans that stood with Trump on his accusations of having the election stolen. Out of those members there are a few tied to extremists like Jim Arroyo and Paul Gosar and Oath Keepers, Andy Biggs is part of the Stop the Steal campaign, Matt Goetz and Laura Bobert are connected to the Three Percenters. Goetz is also connected with the Proud Boys. All these groups are militias. Some of the House members are being looked at by the FBI and their involvement in the insurrection on January 6th.
That is just the US House, there are US Senators on the fringe as well.
The GOP victimizes women in a heartbeat, but, it took them years to get rid of Steve King.
There are no excuses for McCarthy. He isn’t a leader, he is a servant to a group of Republicans that refuse to acknowledge that fact there was leadership in Liz Cheney that upholds the USA Constitution.
All 150 Trump identified supporters need to be followed for their extreme ideology. They took an oath, as did McCarthy, to protect the USA Constitution and in their partisan vote assaulted the Constitution to support violence WITHIN the USA Capital. There is a lot wrong. Far more members should have stood with Cheney.
The Proud Boys were declared a terrorist group in Canada. That means that elected officials that fall in line with the Proud Boys are now affiliated with terrorists as identified by an ally. The USA must purge itself of this extremism.
I will remind, these groups are active militias placing them within a very violent economy within the USA in the weapons of war culture. Having allies beginning to identify terrorists within our borders will open the USA in time with economic sanctions.
None of this is a joke and “just politics.” This is serious and the American people need to purge violent militias from it’s society. There is no room for weapons of war in the USA. Removing the availability of these weapons saves the lives of some of our bravest law enforcement officers as well as the local police we value.
Let me add one more thing. These militias justify their existence to stop an overbearing government. Trump and January 6th prove these militias can be harnessed and used to pretend there is a Deep State to cause insurrection against the USA Constitution. It must end.
