The only thing that holds Republicans together is their opposition to voting rights. Cheney and Kinzinger can support a 1/6 investigation, but not voting rights. That is a bridge too far for anyone in the GOP.

Every single Republican in the House just voted against the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. It passed with all Democratic votes.
The bill would prevent voters from being discriminated against by state and local governments.

People need to stop acting like @RepLizCheney and @AdamKinzinger are heroes. They also oppose the Equality Act. Just because they’re not as awful as, say, @LeaderMcCarthy doesn’t mean they’re not awful.

They prefer to overthrow democracy in a more genteel manner

Without a Voting Rights Act democracy ends. And they both know that.
I suddenly don't trust either of them on the Jan 6th commission any more.

1. This should surprise no one. They are conservatives to their core.

They may be anti-TFG, but their core is conservative.

2. Funny thing, there was a time when conservatives stood for voting rights.

But that was then, this is now.
What's good for America isn't necessarily good for Republicans, so guess what's first in their eyes.

3. Unanimously, deliberately!

4. The Voting Rights Act had nearly unanimous approval during the SHRUB years, so for these

two ass-clowns to attempt to self-righteously distance themselves from Trumpism, just illustrates what disgusting hypocrites they really are.

5. Makes you physically sick to realize the lie they all live by.

They have no soul left to sell.

7. It's Dick Cheney's daughter for Christ's Sake

This is totally predictable!

8. Kinzinger's appeasing the Reds in his district.

He has plenty to worry about. His district will change in the bear future. It's redistricting time!
The districts on Northern Illinois change quite a bit every 10 years.


Edit for misspelling of Kinzinger

[PortTack]

10. Exactly ..he will more than likely lose his seat...no loss!

[MurrayDelph]

9. Republicans only do the right thing

when the wrong thing hurts them.

The MAGAts came after them on January 6; they're making sure they don't do it again.

11. Liz Cheney and her war criminal sperm donor

fed the fear machine for years, in turn priming the right to embrace Trump.

As for Adam Kinzinger? Democrats need to gerrymander him out of Congress.

[kentuck]

12. Did you expect them to vote like Democrats?

Maybe they won't disappoint on the Committee?

[Evolve Dammit]

13. Good Lord, they are just anti-democratic to their cores. Thought they were salvagable. No more.

[Martin68]

14. Every Republican knows the party will lose if they don't suppress the Democratic vote.

[orleans]

15. we know they are not our friends. nt

[Ferrets are Cool]

16. If they have an R behind their names, they are EVIL. PERIOD.

[Gore1FL]

17. Proving even moderately patriotic Republicans suck. nt

[Moebym]

18. Loyalty to party

Over country.

[PatrickforB]

19. Of course they did. Just because they think the Trump coup attempt was treasonous

does not mean their policies aren't still odious.

[DFW]

20. If everyone can vote, Republicans lose. If the Democratic vote is suppressed, they can win

Cheney and Kinzinger are, at the end of the day, still Republicans.

Political self-preservation would therefore dictate.....................

22. A repuKKKe is still a repuKKKe.....

I never expected anything different. The fact they couldn't swallow a large spoonful of the orange swine, is not to be admired. They are still repuKKKes.....just not treasonous gQp's.
