RNC censure language leads to GOP divide ahead of midterms

Some GOP lawmakers are aghast that the RNC had used the words "legitimate political discourse" in a censure resolution describing the roles of GOP Reps. Liz Cheney of Wyoming and Adam Kinzinger of Illinois in their efforts to investigate the insurrection with Democrats on the House select committee. #CNN #News

Kevin Mccarthy's gaslighting, *lying & "Alternative facts, "* are as bad as the original offence of claiming deadly rioting was, "Legitimate political discourse."

[deevalerie]

Shame on the Republican *"Party of Law & Order"* for insulting police who were injured or killed in vicious January 6th Capitol riots, which you *RE-BRANDED* as "Legitimate political discourse"

THANK YOU 🙏
LIZ CHENEY, ADAM KINZINGER and ALL of the COMMITTEE MEMBERS 🙏....
GOD BLESS EVERYONE Working on the COMMITTEE 🙏....

Lindsey Graham: "If we nominate Trump, we will get we will deserve it."
Well, it looks like Nostradumbass was right.👍

Love how the “anti-cancel culture” party, wants to cancel members who won’t follow their rule.

When you chose fascism, you will lose, everytime. The funny thing about being "a leader" or "a planner" is, you don't have to be there, to be guilty. Ask Charlie Manson about that!

[jhitchcock]

So the 6 people who helped plan January 6th just happened to not be there? Purely coincidentally, I'm sure. smh

I have voted both parties my entire life. I will never again vote Republican, even for dog catcher because of their support of Trump, supporting the Big Lie, and the GOP support of the insurrection and treason of January 6th, 2021.

Cheney and Kinzinger are COUNTRY over PARTY. I'm glad they have common sense and a spine..they are not afraid to call out the GOP bs.

[williamdecker]

I left the party during the Tea-party days. The RNC is just full of nuts now!

[j.j.kucala]

I can't believe that these people are representing the people of this country. I don't know how they can look in the mirror and respect the face looking back at them.

But who among us *hasn't* walked off with fifteen boxes of federal property explicitly covered by legislation clarifying that you are not the owner of said property? WHO I ASK

[warpedjaffas]

Babies. They want to run the country again & they can't even take responsibility for their behaviour from last time. Hopeless. 🙄

[josephf]

As a former lifelong conservative Republican this was the last straw. I changed my registration that day!

[therenegadepianotechnician]

If that's what the RNC calls "legitimate political discourse" I can't even imagine what "illegitimate political discourse " would look like.

[UCVibes]

Why would anyone want to remain within the Republican Party?

[labspeciman]

The party of free speech and law and order.. Mmm.. Not so much.

[jsin]

Censure. A cute way for republicans to say “you hurt my feelings”.

Stefanik: "The position that I have is all due to me backstabbing Liz Cheney in the back multiple times". There, fixed it for you Elise 😉

[susanallen]

They voted for trump! That was the problem to begin with…
