Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) lost her primary and conservatives are celebrating.
On Tuesday, Cheney was defeated by Harriet Hageman in the Wyoming Republican primary.
Several conservatives took to Twitter to celebrate her loss.
Conservative commentator Kurt Schlichter tweeted, “Cheney is a loser. She was rejected and it’s because she sucks.”
Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky) reacted, saying, “Few people in Washington have been as wrong and damaging on foreign policy as Liz Cheney.”
He added, “Congratulations to on her victory tonight. I look forward to working with an advocate for liberty as the next Congresswoman from Wyoming. Bye Liz.”

Former President Donald Trump also celebrated her loss, as IJR reported.
“This is a wonderful result for America, and a complete rebuke of the Unselect Committee of political Hacks and Thugs,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
He added, “Liz Cheney should be ashamed of herself, the way she acted, and her spiteful, sanctimonious words and actions towards others. Now she can finally disappear into the depths of political oblivion where, I am sure, she will be much happier than she is right now. Thank you WYOMING!”
Cheney spoke with NBC’s “Today Show” Wednesday morning about what is next for her.
“I will do whatever it takes to keep Donald Trump out of the Oval Office,” she said.
Cheney was asked if she would run for president in 2024.
She proceeded to tell the network that she would make that decision “in the coming months.”
Additionally, Cheney suggested that defeating Trump “is going to require a broad and united front of Republicans, Democrats and independents. And that’s what I intend to be part of.”
