Ed Meese Leads Red Team Cancel Culture

Former Attorney General Edwin Meese III joined other Red Team members in requesting the expulsion of Representatives Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger from the House GOP conference.

Former Vice President Dick Cheney, father of Rep. Liz Cheney, has conservative bona fides, like Ed Meese.

Ed Meese is a national treasure. He has advanced the best interests of the United States effectively, honorably, and courageously in one important job after another. It is worth recalling that Ed came to Washington to organize the Reagan presidential transition and then went on to play a central role as President Reagan’s closest adviser in a long list of important conservative accomplishments. It has been my privilege to know and learn from Ed over many years and a great honor to have served with him on the Trump presidential transition.” 

Consider this historical footnote:

In April 1980, Dick Cheney endorsed Governor Ronald Reagan for president, becoming one of Reagan's earliest supporters.

Ed Meese is pushing cancel culture against the conservative daughter of a Red Team peer.  Trump's ego supersedes friendships and family.  It takes courage to stand against Trump's brand of unthinking and uncaring.

Update 1-6-22:  Former VP Dick Cheney visited the U.S. Capital today, the one year anniversary of Donald Trump's Middle Aged Wilding.  Cheney remarked:

"I'm deeply disappointed we don't have better leadership in the Republican Party to restore the Constitution."  
"Well, it’s not a leadership that resembles any of the folks that I knew when I was here for 10 years -- dramatically."

Did Ed Meese hear that?
