Congresswoman famously broke with her family in 2013 in opposing gay marriage; daughter of former vice-president has a lesbian sister

This translation has been automatically generated and has not been verified for accuracy.FILE - In this July 27, 2021 file photo, Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wy., listens to testimony from Washington Metropolitan Police Department Officer Daniel Hodges during the House select committee hearing on the Jan. 6 attack on Capitol Hill in Washington. Rep. Liz Cheney says she was wrong to oppose gay marriage in the past, a stand that once split her family.

Liz Cheney famously broke with her family in 2013 by opposing gay marriage ahead of a failed Senate bid. Her objections caused a rift with her sister, Mary, a married lesbian. Mary’s spouse, Heather Poe, posted on Facebook that year that Cheney’s position was offensive and that “I always thought freedom meant freedom for EVERYONE.”

While still opposed to gun control, abortion and the Affordable Care Act, or “Obamacare,” the Wyoming congresswoman finds herself on the outs for voting to impeach Trump after his Jan. 6 rally preceded a mob storming the Capitol in hopes of overturning his re-election loss to Biden. Trump continues to falsely claim election fraud in spite of results being certified by states and Republican election officials and courts rejecting dozens of legal challenges.

she is kinda late

Haven't read the article. But my first question before reading it is why does she feel that way?

Word has it she changed her mind after seeing the UberEats ad with Elton and Lil Nas X. Apparently they also enjoy takeout.

You’re a Canadian publication. Why do we care about this?

This is how corporate centrist publications like the G&M help move Canadian culture to the right: they rehabilitate far right figures like Liz Cheney.

'Marriage for all'? Swiss voters to decide same-sex marriageVoters in Switzerland will decide Sunday whether to allow same-sex marriages in the rich Alpine country, one of the few in Western Europe where gay and lesbian couples do not already have the right to wed. S. O. D. O. M Thats unfortunate! Marriage is for men and women to have babies, make healthy well adjusted children. I think we know same sex pair bonding is just a case of 2 people having sex for mutual gratification. Evolutionary dead ends! Why should straight couples be the only ones who regret and hate their marriages? Share the love.
