, R-Calif., has warned GOP consultants that they will have to choose between him and Cheney, "an ultimatum that marks the full rupture between the two House Republicans."
"Jeff Miller, the lobbyist and a confidant of Mr. McCarthy’s dating to their youthful days in Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, politics, has conveyed this us-or-her message to Republican strategists in recent weeks, prompting one fund-raising firm to disassociate itself from Ms. Cheney," the Times added.
"In response, The Morning Group, a fund-raising firm she hired to help prepare for a primary next year against a challenger endorsed by former President Donald J. Trump, informed her last month they could no longer work on her campaign, according to Republicans familiar with the matter," the paper said.
McCarthy and Cheney have been diverging for months, which began in earnest after she voted to impeach the then-lame duck Trump in January following the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol Building, which she has blamed him for inciting.
