Hi, this is Brooke from Milwaukee. I'm folding my laundry and reorganizing my drawers to separate my sleeping pajamas from my daytime pajamas.

That's pretty good because if I'm going to stay at home all the time, I'm at least going to be cozy. This podcast was recorded at 203 p.m. on Wednesday, February 3rd.

Things may have changed by the time you hear this, but I'll probably still be wearing pajamas. Enjoy the show.

This is, I relate to this time stamp in a way that almost makes me uncomfortable.

I think we should take a poll like that we're all in our daytime pajamas right now.

I don't, I don't have any comment on that.

Hey there, it's the MPR Politics podcast. I'm Susan Davis. I cover Congress.

I'm Claudia Grisadas. I also cover Congress and I'm Mara Lias and National Political Correspondent.

And House Republicans are dealing with problems involving two of their members, but for very different reasons.

The first is Liz Cheney. She's the number three ranking House Republican.

And the second is Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene from Georgia.

Claudia, let's start with Cheney. She obviously voted to impeach President Trump.

That's something we've talked about a lot on the pod. And now some of her colleagues want her kicked out a leadership for that.

Who is, who's driving this effort?

This is the Trump wing of the Republican Party. These are the populist members.

So members of the Freedom Caucus have been especially vocal in this effort.

That includes Matt Gates of Florida who traveled to Wyoming on this anti-Cheney tour, if you will.

And other members of the Freedom Caucus, such as its chairman Andy Biggs of Arizona,

are also vocal supporters of her removal.

What has Cheney had to say about all this?

She has been largely silent publicly. A reporter caught her this morning just before this meeting.

And she said she would have more to say after today's GOP conference meeting on Capitol Hill later this afternoon.
