Former No. 3 House Republican Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) recirculated Rep. Elise Stefanik’s (R-N.Y.) statement on the Jan. 6 Capitol attack after the current House GOP Conference Chair reportedly deleted it off her website.
…
On Saturday morning, Cheney posted on X that she was informed that Stefanik deleted her statement about Jan. 6 where she called for the Jan. 6 perpetrators to be prosecuted “to the fullest extent of the law.” Cheney also shared the screenshot of Stefanik’s statement.
In her statement on the Capitol riot, Stefanik characterized the violence as “anti-American” and called it a “tragic.”
…
Stefanik has since changed the way she describes those who stormed the Capitol.
During an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press” in early January, she stated she had “concerns about the treatment of Jan. 6 hostages.”

tfw I agree with Liz Cheney
There’s a limit to how much bullshit people will buy and for how long.
It’s taking longer than we’d like, but the Trumpism of the Republican party has an expiration date. Over time, more and more people bend toward reality.
And then they’ll pretend like they didn’t support him all along. That he was a “fringe” candidate that somehow won the nomination and presidency, but was not a true Republican…
Correct, in ten years you won’t find anyone who voted for him. Just a fever dream…
Naw, their go-to plan so far has just been to find someone worse, so that the previous terrible president doesn’t look so bad in hindsight.
The line is going to be “at least he wasn’t smart or organized enough to do a successful coup” as the next candidate does one.
It’s the Overton window, and they’ve been pushing it hard since Nixon.
Or his reputation will fade and get rehabbed like Reagan and Dubya, especially when the next Republican administration is monstrous in new and terrible ways.
Dunno man. The maganuts seem to be able to inhale the goddamn ocean.
Even the oceans end. Maybe sooner than we’d like in some respects.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
recirculated Rep. Elise Stefanik’s (R-N.Y.) statement on the Jan. 6 Capitol attack after the current House GOP Conference Chair reportedly deleted it off her website.
After sharing Stefanik’s statement, it was deleted from the New York congresswoman’s page, which now only displays the “ERROR” message.
“I fully condemn the dangerous violence and destruction that occurred today at the United States Capitol.
Americans have a Constitutional right to protest and freedom of speech, but violence in any form is absolutely unacceptable and anti-American.
During an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press” in early January, she stated she had “concerns about the treatment of Jan. 6 hostages.”
Cheney, who was one of the lawmakers leading the probe into investigating the Capitol attack, recently called Stefanik a “total crackpot.” The former Wyoming congresswoman has been a staunch critic of former President Trump and allies who promoted false claims about the 2020 election that President Biden won.
