House Republicans are expected to vote Wednesday to oust Cheney from the party’s No. In her floor speech, Cheney warned that efforts to damage confidence in the democratic system would undermine the rule of law at home and hurt America’s standing on the international stage. "As the party of Reagan, Republicans have championed democracy, won the Cold War and defeated the Soviet communists," Cheney said. She was one of 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach Trump on a single charge of incitement of insurrection. The lawmaker’s public feud with Trump raised concerns among House GOP leaders about her ability to serve effectively as conference chair, a position that dictates party messaging, ahead of the crucial 2022 midterm election.
