Liz Cheney accuses GOP House leadership of enabling white nationalism

Raw Story  

On Monday morning, Rep. Liz Cheney lashed out at the leadership of her own party for turning a blind eye to the overt racism being promoted by members of their own caucus. Coming on the heels of the horrific mass shooting in Buffalo, New York where an 18-year-old man used a high-powered weapon to slaughter 10 people and wound three in a grocery store in a predominately Black neighborhood, Cheney appeared to call out House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy for sitting idly by. IN OTHER NEWS: GOP's 'crazy erratic' Nancy Mace is having 'trouble managing her office': Republican colleagues In an earlier editorial condemning Stefanik, New York's Union Leader slammed her for using "alarmist anti-immigrant rhetoric that’s become standard fare for the party of Donald Trump." Stefanik, it should be noted, is third in line in the House GOP leadership, a position she swiftly rose to after Cheney was booted for attacking Donald Trump for his part on the Jan 6th insurrection. For his part, McCarthy has yet to post anything -- not even a "thoughts and prayers" -- on his official Twitter account, @GOPLeader, about the Saturday afternoon shooting as of Monday morning.
