   Death Vader's war hawk daughter is too liberal for the Gestapo party now ?   
      
      
   The establishment wing of the GOP won a rare and dramatic victory   
   Wednesday night when Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) beat back an attempt by   
   Donald Trump’s staunchest allies to knock her from power as retribution   
   for voting to impeach the former president just three weeks earlier.   
      
   The 145-61 vote in favor of keeping Cheney in leadership, conducted by   
   secret ballot, followed a marathon closed-door “family discussion” in   
   the basement of the Capitol Visitor Center, where dozens of House   
   Republicans lined up to voice their frustrations with the Wyoming   
   representative, the most powerful GOP woman in Congress, and called for   
   her removal as conference chair, a role that entails leading the party’s   
   messaging efforts.

   Both ExxonMobil and BP announced Tuesday that they had sustained major   
   losses in 2020 amid low demand for oil due to the coronavirus pandemic.   
      
   Exxon posted $22.4 billion in losses for 2020, posting a loss of $20.1   
   billion for the fourth quarter.   
      
   According to Reuters, this was Exxon’s first annual loss.   
      
   BP reported $20 billion in losses for 2020, including nearly $1.4   
   billion in the fourth quarter.   
      
   Chevron, meanwhile, announced last month that it had lost $5.5 billion   
   in 2020, including $665 million in the fourth quarter.
