Representative Liz Cheney (R-WY) said Thursday on CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360 ” that the United States could not be considered a nation of laws if former President Donald Trump was not prosecuted.
CNN chief national affairs analyst Kasie Hunt said, “Some have expressed concern that prosecuting former President Trump which turned him into a martyr and potentially add to his political strength for the base that follows him pretty rabidly. Do you share that concern? Do you have any concern that the prosecution would strengthen Donald Trump’s political hand?”
Cheney said, “I don’t think that it is appropriate to think about it that way because the question for us is, are we a nation of laws? Are we a country where no one is above the law? And with that, the facts and the evidence shows. Certainly, I have been very clear, and I think he is clearly guilty of the most derelict of duty of any president of our nation’s history. A federal judge in California said that it is more likely than not that he and John Eastman committed two crimes. I think that we are going to continue to follow facts and that the Department of Justice will do that. They had to make decisions about prosecution, understanding what it means if the facts and evidence are there and they decide not to prosecute. How do we then call ourselves a nation of laws? I think it’s very serious balance.”

I fully concur!
Aw, dry up, Liz Cheney!!!!! Just disappear into the sunset, like any other Western villain!!!!
Enforce your garbage laws after that, Lizard.
OK. So what laws did he violate? Be specific.
Liz is getting frantic and sinking into a frenzy.
For those who don’t know, her primary is a week from Tuesday.
Actually, we are a Constitutional Republic.
If she is not prosecuted for collision to interfere illegally by abuse of power in a US election, then we are not a nation of laws.
Oh dick, that ship sailed in about 2017
Skywise you are 100% right on! This wicked animal is a disgrace, not only to the country but also to human kind! Nevertheless she probably has 1 or 2 family members who think that she is OK! Yes, she should resign even before the election. She does not even deserve to be on the ballot!!
We already know that from the Clintons, especially Hillary, never being prosecuted, or Antifa, or BLM.
A sanctimonious twisting of the law and truth.
Thanks for that link. Shows how deep the mental failure and arrogance are.
She’s just positioning herself for her prime time MSNBC show.
If they were as forgiving for Trump’s people as the Biden gang, Cheney could say “not a nation of laws” but I don’t think that is what they are doing.
Hey, Lizard Cheney, let me know when the following criminals are prosecuted, b*tch.....Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton, Eric Holder, Lois Lerner, Barack Obama, Valerie Jarrett, James Comey, Samantha Powers, George Soros, John Brennan, just to name a handful of the villians.
“A federal judge in California said that it is more likely than not that he and John Eastman committed two crimes.”
6 years later I’m still waiting for them to mention for me just what law Trump has violated. All we’ve been getting for those past 6 years are “he committed crimes”.
