Liz Cheney (R-WY) in the House GOP leadership on Sunday ahead of a vote that is expected to happen this week.<\/p>\n<p>McCarthy made the remarks after reports surfaced on Friday that Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-NC) is expected to initiate a call on Wednesday morning to remove Cheney from her position as House Republican Conference Chair.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDemocrats are destroying this nation,\u201d McCarthy said. \u201cWe\u2019ve watched the greatest expansion of government [in] this socialist liberal agenda. We watched them destroy our borders, where hundreds of thousands are coming across, not being tested for COVID. We\u2019re catching people on the terrorist watch list.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019ve got the destruction of our energy. You\u2019ve got the largest missed jobs report [in] more than two decades,\u201d he continued. \u201cTo defeat Nancy Pelosi and the socialist agenda, we need to be united \u2014 and that starts with leadership. That\u2019s why we will have a vote next week. And we want to be united in looking, moving forward. And I think that\u2019s what will take place.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One of the few names that has been floated to replace Cheney is Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), who voted with Trump <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/cheney-stefanik-republicans-house-votes-trump-conservative\">less<\/a> than Cheney did. When asked if he supports Stefanik for the job, McCarthy answered, \u201cYes, I do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat we\u2019re talking about, it\u2019s a position in leadership. We are in one of our biggest battles ever for this nation and the direction, whether this next century will be ours,\u201d McCarthy said. \u201cAs conference chair, you have one of the most critical jobs as the messenger of going forward. Are we talking about what the Democrats are doing on the border? Are we talking about all the missed jobs report [sic] that we just had? Are we building an economy? [We\u2019re] watching Joe Biden create inflation that we\u2019ve never seen before, a takeover of government, the rising of taxes, the damage of what will be done that we cannot come back for.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s why we need a conference that\u2019s united,\u201d McCarthy continued. \u201cThat\u2019s why we need a conference chair that is delivering that message day in and day out and uniting the nation to make sure that we are on the right footing going forward.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>Related:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
