So Liz is voting for Kamala.

Good. Given Cheney’s work on the J6 Commission it isn’t all that surprising. But it bears keeping in mind that she’s still a member of the party that brought him to the dance, and she danced every dance with him until that awful day; nor has she renounced any of those dances. To be sure, she paid a severe price for her ‘disloyalty’ to him, summarily booted from the party to which she had been born.

She has now done two things that elevate her a bit in our esteem, and we thank her for both. But in that gratitude let’s not forget that Cheney’s antecedents do have more than a smidgen of Machiavelli. A word to the wise and all that . . .

Sane and semi sane GOP, including some wingnuts who can be deprogrammed, need the offramp she, Kinzinger, Duncan, etc. are giving fellow Repubs.

of R and I think she waited until Kamala said she would appoint an R to her cabinet. She is ambitious, if nothing else.
