For reasons that are hard to understand, ten House Republicans joined with the Democrats to vote for his impeachment. A recently released Harvard study <a href=\"https:\/\/pjmedia.com\/news-and-politics\/matt-margolis\/2022\/08\/01\/harvard-study-wrecks-insurrection-narrative-of-capitol-riot-n1617408\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">has proven the narrative that the Capitol riot was an \u201cinsurrection\u201d to be completely false.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The decision of these Republicans to become accessories in the left\u2019s perpetual witchhunt against Trump, however, has cost them their political careers.<\/p>\n<p>Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) is expected to lose in the August 16 primary, and when she does, that will leave just three of the ten Republicans who supported impeaching Trump left in the House.<\/p>\n<p>Four Republicans saw the writing on the wall and simply retired rather than go through a primary: Reps. Anthony Gonzalez (R-Ohio), Fred Upton (R-Mich.), John Katko (R-N.Y.), and, of course, Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), who is one of the two Republicans who was handpicked by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to sit on the notoriously biased January 6 Committee. Rep. Tom Rice (R-S.C.) lost his primary in June, and Rep. Peter Meijer (R-Mich.) lost his primary this week to Trump-endorsed John Gibbs.<\/p>\n<p>The three survivors are\u00a0Reps. David Valadao (R-Calif.), Jaime Herrera Beutler (R-Wash.), and\u00a0Dan Newhouse (R-Wash.).<\/p>\n<p>In the U.S. Senate, Mitt Romney is the only Republican who supported Trump\u2019s impeachment. He is up for reelection in 2024, and is widely expected to face a number of primary challengers, should he even run for reelection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2021, House Democrats, pushing the narrative that Trump was responsible for the Capitol riot, hastily pushed through a second bogus impeachment.
