Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) tore into House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) in a press conference Wednesday, calling his handling of the proposed Jan. 6 investigation “despicable and disgraceful.”

McCarthy responded to Pelosi blocking the two members of Congress — Reps. Jim Jordan (R-OH) and Jim Banks (R-IN) — by pulling all five Republicans he had nominated.
Cheney, who was nominated by Pelosi to serve on the committee, said she agreed with the move from the Democratic leader.
“January 6th was the worst attack on this Capitol since 1814. It was an attack on our Constitution,” Cheney said. She added that the two Republicans rejected by Pelosi included “one who may be a material witness to events that led to that day” and another “who disqualified himself by his comments… demonstration he’s not taking this seriously.”
The Wyoming Republican, who was one of few members of the GOP to vote for former President Donald Trump’s second impeachment, also slammed McCarthy for blocking the originally proposed bipartisan commission:
We supported what would have been the very best option, which was a bipartisan, independent commission. The minority leader opposed that. He lobbied against it in the Senate and the Senate blocked it. The American people deserve to know what happened. The people who did this must be held accountable. There must be an investigation that is nonpartisan, that is sober, that is serious, that gets to facts where ever they may lead. At every opportunity, the minority leader has attempted to prevent the American people from understanding what happened, to block this investigation.”
“This investigation must go forward,” she continued. “The idea that anybody would be playing politics with an attack on the United States Capitol is despicable and disgraceful.”

She’s actively courting registered Democrats to help save her in the primary.
Too Much Time Blood On My Hands...
Yada yada, blada blada...
Notice how bold the Luciferian Liz Cheney is…
This PIG needs to be gone.
despicable and disgraceful certainly defines this harpie
Can’t stand her.
Says the woman who sent THOUSANDS of men and women to die in a crap hole country based on a LIE..Hey Liz, how do you SLEEP at night..my bet is, like a baby
It was a false-flag attack by ANTIFA-Occupy types trying to slime Trump’s followers. They mostly succeeded, to hear the enemedia tell it. As for Cheney, she is as fake a Republican as as those attackers were fake Trumpsters.
When they turn, they turn hard don’t they?
Now will McCarthy strip Cheney of any and all committee assignments and party support of any kind?
Clearing the way for a one-sided clown show.
Liz Cheney, The Chief Propaganda Officer of the Democratic Party.
“January 6th was the worst attack on this Capitol since 1814”
If the Redcoats had assualt selfie takers then 1814 would have been worse.
The idea that anybody would be playing politics with an attack on the United States Capitol is despicable and disgraceful.
********
The only people who got attacked were the demonstrators.
McCarthy MUST TAKE her Committee Assignments away immediately.
But he won’t. Because he is a Weak Coward.
Tom Delay would not put up with this kind of nonsense.
Fat Liz!
If she had ANY chance of winning her primary she would be keeping her traitorous mouth shut like all RINOs do.
She is auditioning for a spot on CNN or MSNBC as the "republican" voice when they have their political round-table back and forth.
Time to remove Cheney from all committee assignments.
