Thursday's Absurdity: Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger Still Meet With the GOP House Caucus

That’s right: Despite these two de facto Democrats carrying San Fran Nan’s water on her illegitimately-formed Jan. 6 Committee for the past several months, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy still allows Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger to participate in Republican caucus meetings. He has not stripped them of any committee assignments, nor has he disciplined either in any way, shape or form.

That says as much or more about McCarthy than it does about the two RINOs, doesn’t it? After all, Pelosi basically disrobed him when she rejected his proposed appointees and refused to allow him to make any appointments at all to the sham proceedings. Cheney and Kinzinger then stabbed the feckless Minority Leader in the back by accepting an appointment from Pelosi herself, a move that violates all sorts of house rules, but that Pelosi and her media agents have used successfully to lend an air of semi-legitimacy to the committee’s actions.

McCarthy has ignored demands from the Freedom Caucus and other conservatives in his own House caucus to ban the two Pelosi operatives from their conference meetings. Yesterday, a group of 40 conservatives, including former South Carolina Sen. Jim DeMint and former Secretary of State Ed Meese III, sent McCarthy a letter demanding their removal. Here is much of the text of that letter:

McCarthy most likely lacks the courage to respond to this letter, just as he has lacked the courage to respond to demands from Jim Jordan and other GOP house members.

Conservatives are free to think what they want to think about the Jan. 6 committee. But any conservative who thinks it is a good idea to allow Cheney and Kinzinger to spy on the meetings of the GOP House Caucus and report back to Pelosi is no conservative at all.

Sadly, that seems to accurately describe Kevin McCarthy.

That is all.
