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.

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.




They found his trolling infantile and unsuitable for his office.





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.
