What Biden Didn’t Say About Cheney and Thompson at Medal Ceremony
The New American ^ | January 3, 2025 | R. Cort Kirkwood

When President Joe Biden gave former GOP U.S. Representative Liz Cheney and Democratic Representative Bennie Thompson of Mississippi the Presidential Citizens Medal yesterday, he omitted a few salient items about their pasts, recent and distant.

The two hate-Trumpers received the award for their work on the select committee that “investigated” the mostly peaceful protest at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, the so-called J6 Committee.

Cheney tampered with a witness and must be investigated for suborning perjury from that witness, a report from the House Oversight Committee concluded. Thompson is an unrepentant insurrectionist who defended cop killers and terrorists who planned to wage war against the United States government.

Liz Cheney

Biden honored Cheney because, in serving as vice chairman of the J6 Committee, she “raised her voice — and reached across the aisle — to defend our Nation and the ideals we stand for: Freedom. Dignity. And decency. Her integrity and intrepidness remind us all what is possible if we work together.”

Biden must have been mighty impressed with Cheney, daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, because he wouldn’t let go of the clearly uncomfortable renegade Republican’s hand.

Also fortunately for Cheney, the far-left media (and Biden, of course) ignored the conclusion of the Oversight panel’s probe into the J6 Committee’s “failures” and “politicization.”

The report shows that Cheney unethically communicated with key witness Cassidy Hutchinson, who then lied to the committee about the events of January 6. The committee also reported that Hutchinson altered her testimony to fit the committee’s bogus “insurrection” narrative.

It was not a legal House Committee - not enough Republicans and the ‘Pubs that the Republican Minority Leader recommended were REJECTED by Pelosi which made the proceedings unconstitutional...

SF Nan hand picked the Republican representatives SHE wanted.

I do believe a reckoning will come via Civil courts...

Cheers to ‘25 (and the new ‘47!)

If she had any kind of a conscience, she should be hating herself for what she did.

“Cheney tampered with a witness and must be investigated for suborning perjury from that witness”

I already know what is going to happen with this. Nothing

Some democrat judge will declare it was never a criminal investigation AND since it was done in the “Esteemed Halls of Congress” where they are protected by the “Speech and Debate Clause” allowing them to lie, perjure, and libel about anything and anyone.

I hope the medal will have a prominent position in her home, such that her gaze will fall upon it frequently.

It will be a constant reminder of why she has no political position or career throughout the rest of her life.

Why the heck didn’t the GOP kick those two out? That’s what they should have done, then it would not have been 2 gop on the committee at all!
