The two rogue Republicans who chose to join Nancy Pelosi’s Jan. 6 House select committee have been censured by the Republican National Committee for their actions.
Both Liz Cheney (R-WY) and Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) joined the committee after Pelosi rejected House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy’s (R-CA) recommended leaders and he said the GOP would have no involvement with the “sham” committee.
Cheney agreed to serve, becoming the committee’s vice-chair, with Kinzinger soon joining her. Both House members were among those who voted to impeach Trump after Jan. 6 as well.
Kinzinger has since announced he is retiring from Congress and is not running for reelection. Cheney is facing a Trump-backed primary contender in Wyoming who may unseat her.
In addition to both members likely soon being out of office, they now have the rare “honor” of being censured by their own party. This is in addition to Cheney being censured by her own state Republican Party.
In the video, RNC spokeswoman Ronna McDaniel said, “Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger crossed a line. They chose to join Nancy Pelosi in a Democrat-led persecution of ordinary citizens who engaged in legitimate political discourse that had nothing to do with violence at the Capitol.”
