On Wednesday, House Republicans voted to oust Congresswoman Liz Cheney (R-WY) from her position as the Republican Conference Chair for her continued refutation of the Republican lie that the 2020 election was "stolen" by Democrats engaging in widespread election fraud.
The move signaled a further escalation in the party's embrace of former President Donald Trump and the far-right conspiracy theories that sparked the first mass attack on the nation's Capitol by its own citizens in American history.
While some Republican lawmakers have defended Cheney, the conference's most ardent Trump supporters have rejoiced at the move.
Among them? Congressman Madison Cawthorn of North Carolina.
The 25 year old Congressman, tweeting from his official government account, posted song lyrics to see her off.
Na na na na, na na na na, hey hey, goodbye Liz Cheney— Rep. Madison Cawthorn (@Rep. Madison Cawthorn) 1620826383
Cawthorn was one of a slate of far-right candidates elected to Congress in the 2020 election. He's faced scrutiny for his posts about vacationing at Hitler's home and for misleading the public about his military service.
Cawthorn's jovial tweet marking Cheney's removal reflected the party's further embrace of pettiness over policy.

This is the Republican Party. The NEW Republican Party. \n\nThe GQP is loyal to only on thing. And it ain\u2019t the USofA!https://twitter.com/RepCawthorn/status/1392472893951467529\u00a0\u2026— Sydfish (@Sydfish) 1620830601
The republican party captured in a single tweet.https://twitter.com/repcawthorn/status/1392472893951467529\u00a0\u2026— Tracy Jedi Mind Trick Master of the House Snark (@Tracy Jedi Mind Trick Master of the House Snark) 1620834138
They found his trolling infantile and unsuitable for his office.
How professional of a sitting member of Congress. When you elect a child, you get to put up with childish reactions. Be better, @RepCawthorn. It seems that members of the @HouseGOP have forgotten Reagan\u2019s 11th Commandment.https://twitter.com/repcawthorn/status/1392472893951467529\u00a0\u2026— Chad Hall (@Chad Hall) 1620831436
Below are the rantings of an overgrown child, formerly accused of sexual assault staying true to form. @RepCawthorn, you are a despicable person, you are not a true Republican or Conservative, and you bring shame to the United States Congress. .https://twitter.com/RepCawthorn/status/1392472893951467529\u00a0\u2026— Fred Guttenberg (@Fred Guttenberg) 1620832271
This wouldn\u2019t fly in an elementary school classroom. Hard to believe a Congressman is saying this to a colleague simply because she told the truth. Western NC deserves better.https://twitter.com/repcawthorn/status/1392472893951467529\u00a0\u2026— Jasmine Beach-Ferrara (@Jasmine Beach-Ferrara) 1620832353
Is this the kind of maturity and professionalism our country deserves from its representatives @RepCawthorn ? \nIs this how you teach your children?https://twitter.com/RepCawthorn/status/1392472893951467529\u00a0\u2026— Brian J. Karem (@Brian J. Karem) 1620833923
This petulant child basically sums up the current @GOP \nThis is real life, this is how they behave. This is what the American taxpayers are paying for.....https://twitter.com/RepCawthorn/status/1392472893951467529\u00a0\u2026— \ud83c\udf1cKimberly\ud83c\udf1b (@\ud83c\udf1cKimberly\ud83c\udf1b) 1620833579
Cheney's expected replacement is pro-Trump Congresswoman Elise Stefanik of New York, who continues to imply that supposed widespread irregularities tainted the legitimacy of the 2020 election.
