Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan criticized House Republicans on Sunday for booting Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney from her leadership role, saying they are “doubling down on failure.”

Hogan, a centrist Republican, sided with Cheney, who was ousted from her position as the chairwoman of the House Republican Conference on Wednesday after she voted to impeach former President Donald Trump and accused him of perpetuating “the Big Lie” that the 2020 presidential election was not secure.
