“#CNN’s Jake Tapp<\/a>er floats banning some Republicans from show<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

There\u2019s too hot for TV and then there\u2019s too wrong for Tapper. <\/p>\n

The anchor of CNN\u2019s two-hour mid-afternoon show \u201cThe Lead\u201d suggested to his colleagues Tuesday that he would bar Republicans from appearing if they were \u201cnot willing to stick to standards and facts.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHow am I supposed to believe anything they say?\u201d Tapper asked \u201cNew Day\u201d hosts John Berman and Brianna Keilar. \u201cIf they\u2019re willing to lie about Joe Biden wanting to steal your hamburgers and QAnon and the Big Lie about the election, what are they not willing to lie about? Why should I put any of them on TV?\u201d<\/p>\n

The outburst by Tapper comes against the backdrop of a campaign to oust Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) as the chair of the House Republican Conference, the third-ranking position in the GOP caucus. <\/p>\n

Cheney, one of ten House Republicans who voted to impeach former President Donald Trump in connection with the deadly Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, has repeatedly slammed Trump\u2019s false claim that the 2020 presidential election was stolen by Democrats and insisted the 45th president should be exiled from the party.<\/p>\n

On Monday, Cheney told the Post that senators who led efforts to challenge the results of the election should be disqualified from seeking the GOP nomination in 2024 \u2014 a move that would rule out potential contenders Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley, though the latter has said he will not run.<\/p>\n

The following day, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) was caught on a hot mic telling \u201cFox & Friends\u201d co-host Steve Doocy that \u201cI\u2019ve had it with her,\u201d referring to Cheney. <\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve lost confidence \u2026,\u201d McCarthy said prior to a live interview with the network. \u201cSomeone just has to bring a motion, but I assume that will probably take place.\u201d Once the cameras were on, McCarthy was more circumspect, telling Doocy that his fellow Republicans were \u201cconcerned about her ability to carry out the job as conference chair, to carry out the message\u201d ahead of the 2022 midterm elections.<\/p>\n

Cheney has already survived one vote to oust her from leadership back in February, but observers doubt whether she will make it through a second challenge.<\/p>\n

Back on CNN, Tapper \u2014 who also co-hosts CNN\u2019s Sunday morning current affairs program \u201cState of the Union\u201d alongside Dana Bash \u2014 lambasted the House Republican leader.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s remarkable that standing up for just basic facts is now controversial within the Republican Party,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n

\u201cI happen to think the reason that the House Republican leader is so frustrated with Liz Cheney is not because of all the excuses he gives, but because her continued presence is a reminder of the fact that he [McCarthy] is exemplifying cowardice and lies \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe lie about the election on its own is anti-democracy and it is sowing seeds of ignorance in the populace and, obviously, it has the potential to incite violence,\u201d Tapper later added. <\/p>\n

\u201cBut beyond that is, if you\u2019re willing to lie about that, what are you not willing to lie about? And, you know, that\u2019s where we are when it comes to the House Republican leadership \u2014 McCarthy and [House Minority Whip Steve] Scalise and where we are with too many leaders of the Republican Party. They\u2019re not willing to tell their voters the truth. What does that say about them?\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n
