We are truly blessed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Several prominent Republicans commented their congratulations, including House Minority Leader\u00a0<span class=\"rollover-people\" data-behavior=\"rolloverpeople\">Kevin McCarthy<\/span> (R-CA), House Minority Whip Steve Scalise, (R-LA) and former White House Press Secretary <span class=\"rollover-people\" data-behavior=\"rolloverpeople\">Sarah <\/span>Sanders.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCongratulations! So excited for you both!! Being a mom is the best job in the world!,\u201d Sanders commented on the post.<\/p>\n<p>The couple did not say when exactly this fall they expect to welcome their baby.<\/p>\n<p>Last month, <span class=\"rollover-people\" data-behavior=\"rolloverpeople\">Stefanik, whose upstate district includes most of the\u00a0Adirondack Mountains,<\/span> was elected to replace Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) as House Republican Conference Chair, the no. 3 Republican in House leadership.<\/p>\n<p>Cheney was ousted from the role by her party over concerns that she was not on the same page as other members of her party regarding her sustained criticism of former President Trump.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can\u2019t have a conference chair who recites Democrat talking points,\u201d Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) said of Cheney.<\/p>\n<p>Before she was removed, McCarthy was\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/iz-cheney-kevin-mccarthy-hot-mic-9ac0f8b7-c4ab-4c26-9d1d-1466505ae10b.html\">caught<\/a>\u00a0on a hot mic saying he had \u201chad it\u201d with Cheney and had \u201clost confidence\u201d in her, adding that she had \u201creal problems.\u201d McCarthy predicted that she would soon face a vote to remove her as conference chair.<\/p>\n<p>Cheney responded in the affirmative when asked on Fox News last month whether she thinks <span class=\"rollover-people\" data-behavior=\"rolloverpeople\">McCarthy<\/span>\u00a0and\u00a0<span class=\"rollover-people\" data-behavior=\"rolloverpeople\">Stefanik<\/span>\u00a0are \u201ccomplicit\u201d in Trump\u2019s lies following her ouster.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey are, and I\u2019m not willing to do that,\u201d Cheney said. \u201cI think that there are some things that have to be bigger than party, that have to be bigger than partisanship.\u00a0Our\u00a0oath to the Constitution is one of those.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Stefanik, days earlier, had called Trump \u201can important voice\u201d in the Republican Party, a view Cheney said was \u201cwrong.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>House Republicans voted overwhelmingly for Stefanik to take over as GOP conference chair in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/newest-gop-leader-were-unified-in-working-with-trump-cheney-still-part-of-conference\">secret vote<\/a>, 134-46. The New York congresswoman was expected to win as she went into the vote without a serious rival for the role.<\/p>\n<p>Before the vote, Trump publicly offered his full-throated endorsement of Stefanik, calling her a \u201ctough and smart communicator\u201d in a statement through his Save America PAC.<\/p>\n<p>Trump had sharp words for Cheney, the daughter for former Vice President Dick Cheney, calling her a \u201cwarmongering fool who has no business in Republican Party Leadership.\u201d Stefanik, he said, is a \u201cfar superior choice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are unified and focused on FIRING PELOSI &#038; WINNING in 2022!\u201d Stefanik <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/EliseStefanik\/status\/1389971300614123520\">responded<\/a>, thanking Trump for his endorsement.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
