LIZ CHENEY AND THE REPUBLICAN BRICK WALL OF SEXISM

By Mona Austin

Republicans are trying to oust Liz Cheney (R-WY) from leadership and it reeks of sexism. Cheney, the leading woman in the Republican Caucus has the loudest female voice. Her fellow leaders have echoed the discontent of former Pres. Donald Trump who she wants barred from running from office again. Her criticism of Trump goes beyond qaurrels over elections security. She thinks he could be a danger to Democracy itself while 70% of the Republican base still beleives the eelction was stolen from Trump according to a poll. Trumpism is the new

On a hot mic speaking to Steve Doosy of FOX News before and interview, chief Trumo Defender Kevin McCarthy said, "I think she's got real problems," McCarthy told Steve Doocy off-air ahead of a live "Fox and Friends" interview. "I've had it with ... I've had it with her. You know, I've lost confidence. ... Well, someone just has to bring a motion, but I assume that will probably take place." MCCarthy ahs also said that others are oncerend that she She And just like that, Mrs. Cheney's career in politics could be over. is being bullied to leave the party for speaking her own mind and not staying on message with fellow House Repiubicans who continue to perpetuate false claims associated with the . More progressive women Republicans from the large group of conservative women who entered the Congress this year are not standing up to support her.

They are not open to handing the bull horn to any woman unless she can trumpet the views of the male leaders in the party. Women are expected to follow the male lead and remain quiet.

Cheney is partially being ostracized for denouncing the unfounded election claims of former Pres. Donald Trump. Trump is acting as a shadow leader of the party and even in his absence from Twitter but he has expressed his disdain for the outgoing caucus leader. Chaney is being penalized for being one of 10 Republicans who voted to impeach Trump. McCarthy and others want her to keep quiet and because shoe won't they claim she can not do her job. On the other hand, the Republican caucus dod

Mitt Romeny, who was booed at a recent Republican event, defended Chaney in a tweet saying she is gettting treated this way because she refused to lie.

The message the GOP is sending, with the complicit support of other women in the party, is that women can only go so far in leadership without crossing a line drawn by the men of the party
Rep. Elise Stefanik (R- New York) is prepared to step up to fill Cheney's position.

  By Mona Austin One of the most eligible bacherlors in Christianity has tied the knot - Marvin Winans remarries After being single for almost 30 years, legendary gospel singer and Bishop Marvin L. Winans, Sr. has wed his long time girlfriend Deneen R. Carter. Carter is a 57-year-old physical therapist and minister at Perfecting Church in Detroit, founded by Winans. Little is known about the bride publicly. The gospel legend introduced the now Mrs. Winans as his fiance to the congregants of Perfecting in October of 2021. The couple had been in a relationship for 15 years. Pastor Winans was previously married to fellow gospel singer Vicki Winans (with whom he has two sons) for 16 years before they divorced in 1995.

buzzz worthy. . . By Mona Austin Much of what the average American knows about Frederick Douglass lies in the pages of "The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, An American Slave."  His memory has lived on through the annals of history as a heroic abolitionist. A recent article revered Douglass  as "A king among men."  Note to The Atlantic writer who wrote those words in the article  Memo to the White House on the Contributions of Frederick Douglass  --  applying t hat very Biblical reference to Douglass is an overstatement.  The article was a response  to President Donald Trump saying at a White House "Listening Session " on Black History Month that   Douglass is  “an example of somebody who’s done an amazing job and is being recognized more and more, I notice.”  The Atlantic article was intended to show Mr.Trump and others who may be ignorant of his significance that Douglass was not on the sidelines of Bl...
