Liz Cheney threatened Donald Trump's incoming Department of Justice on Monday, claiming that any move to investigate the now-defunct January 6th committee would be "sanctionable conduct." The statement, put out in response to Trump's recent "Meet the Press" interview, also denied allegations that she and her colleagues destroyed evidence.
While speaking to NBC News' Kristen Welker, the president-elect said the following.
“Cheney did something that’s inexcusable, along with Thompson and the people on the un-select committee of political thugs and, you know, creeps,” the President-elect said, referring to Mississippi Rep. Bennie G. Thompson (the committee’s chairman). “They deleted and destroyed all evidence.”
That triggered Cheney, who lashed out, stating that Trump committed the "worst breach of our Constitution by any president in our nation's history."
“Here is the truth: Donald Trump attempted to overturn the 2020 presidential election and seize power,” she said in a statement. “He mobilized an angry mob and sent them to the United States Capitol, where they attacked police officers, invaded the building and halted the official counting of electoral votes. Trump watched on television as police officers were brutally beaten and the Capitol was assaulted, refusing for hours to tell the mob to leave.”
She continued: “This was the worst breach of our Constitution by any president in our nation’s history. Donald Trump’s suggestion that members of Congress who later investigated his illegal and unconstitutional actions should be jailed is a continuation of his assault on the rule of law and the foundations of our republic.”

Again. How does she think she has any influence at all?
“Again. How does she think she has any influence at all?”
Deep state. Liz and her daddy Dick are members in good standing. As we’ve seen, the deep state is powerful.
I hope she can’t sleep at night, she’s possessed with TDS.
I also hope the J6 committee FINALLY gets investigated.
It would appear that she is aspiring to a career in Comedy.
Go hunting with your Dad, Liz.
Uh-huh. “I had to commit crimes to stop evil.” Is the first line of the totalitarian despot.
It would appear that she is aspiring to a career in Comedy.
Well, she’s about as funny as most modern-day comedians.
If you investigate me, I will destroy you.. hmmmmm sounds like she is trying to hide something.. Susan Smith could use a new roommate.
Sounds like delusions of grandeur.
Hope you and Benny, and Adam look good in STRIPES!
“Sanctions”?? Congress has no authority for that.
She is also committing threats against the Dept of Justice.
SANCTIONS? LOL!
Can I do that too? Like for example, if I get a speeding ticket. Can I sanction the police officer? I guess I don’t understand what Liz is trying to say?
She thinks that because the media continue to humor her she can be heard and has influence with the public. Trouble is, nobody is listening to her.
So Congress can send Bannon and Navarro to prison, but the DoJ can’t investigate her crimes?
ROTF! Sanction? By who? Who do you think has the power here Liz? Here’s a tip - not you.
ROTFL! Lighten up, Lizard. Geez. Your ass needs to be investigated for posing as a Republican all these years. You’re nothing but a friggin’, bottom-feeding, RAT.
Oh Liz, you are so going to prison.
She’ll sic Kermit the Frog on him.
That smelling like fear. She likely knows that even a cursory look will lead to the gray bar hotel.
