The fight over the GOP identity

Trump-ism has the Republican party fighting over its own identity. Last night, after a tense hours-long meeting about the future of the GOP, House Republicans voted to keep Liz Cheney in leadership. That was following calls for her removal after she voted to impeach former President Trump. And at the same time, the party is split over Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene. She's well-known for supporting QAnon and other conspiracy theories in Congress. Today, the House will vote on whether or not to remove her from her seat on the education committee. Plus, why everyone is mad at the Robinhood investing app. And, how Tampa Bay is prepping for a pandemic Super Bowl. Guests: Axios' Margaret Talev, Felix Salmon and Ben Montgomery.
