Hi there,

The job of a journalist is to go to where the silence is — especially when those in power seek to silence voices that question or challenge power. That is what we do at Democracy Now! day in and day out, and we're able to do it because of financial support from people like you — people who trust and depend on our independent reporting. If you believe that freedom of speech and freedom of the press are essential to the functioning of a democratic society, please donate today. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Wyoming GOP Censures Rep. Liz Cheney for Backing Trump’s Impeachment

HeadlineFeb 08, 2021

The Wyoming Republican Party voted to censure Congressmember Liz Cheney, the third-highest-ranking Republican in the House, over her vote to impeach former President Trump for inciting the January 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. It follows a similar move by Arizona Republicans, who passed resolutions in January censuring Governor Doug Ducey, former Senator Jeff Flake and Cindy McCain, John McCain’s widow, for opposing or defying Trump. Meanwhile, Oregon Republicans passed a resolution in January condemning the 10 Republican congressmembers who voted to impeach Trump, calling the insurrection a “false flag” operation. Trump’s second impeachment trial begins tomorrow.
