Hello and welcome to another edition of the Byron York Show, the No-Chit-Chit Podcast.

Brought to you today by the Bradley Foundation.

We'll talk about that in a few minutes, but we want to get right into the topic at hand.

And the topic at hand is Liz Cheney.

You've been hearing just over and over and over about this Republican Civil War in Washington.

I'm actually in Washington right now.

I can't see any troops or anything, but there's this Civil War going on in Washington, apparently.

And it's all about Liz Cheney.

So I want to talk for a while about what she is doing and what she might be thinking.

And then I want to talk about what the Republican Party and the House,

what those leaders are thinking about this whole Liz Cheney matter.

So the first thing is, and everybody is really trying to figure this out,

is what is Liz Cheney trying to accomplish?

Is she trying to deliver tough love to the Republican Party's most ardent supporters of Donald Trump?

Is she trying to administer bad tasting but needed medicine to her party?

Is she trying to curry favor with media opinion makers?

A lot of those who just love her right now, is she trying to position herself for some big political move in the next year or so?

I mean, it is not actually clear what's going on.

Now, what is clear though, is what she is saying.

And in the past few weeks, she has directed hostile language towards some in her own party

and conciliatory language to the opposition party.

Now, when you do that, it's no surprise if some of your colleagues become unhappy.
