Former Rep. Liz Cheney’s upcoming tell-all is being described by her publisher as a “warning” about the threat to American democracy posed by former President Donald Trump and his allies. Little, Brown and Company ​calls the book by Cheney, one of two Republicans on the House select committee that investigated Trump’s actions in connection with the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riot a “gripping first-hand account from inside the hall of Congress … by the House Republican leader who dared to stand up to it.”​ Cheney, the daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, lost her Wyoming congressional seat last August...

Last month, former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, accepted an appointment to serve as a professor at the University of Virginia’s Center for Politics. The staunch critic of former President Donald Trump was defeated in the Republican primary last year by pro-Trump candidate Harriet Hageman. Liz Cheney had previously suggested that she would consider a presidential run in 2024 – likely as much to ensure Trump couldn’t win as actually to become president. However, it appears those plans could be put on hold.

​Donald Trump isn’t the only person ​benefiting ​ in the polls from his indictment​.​ Support for former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) has doubled among Republican voters in the last few weeks, inching her closer to ​Florida Gov. Ron ​DeSantis, whose numbers are falling​. According to a series of surveys by the Trafalgar Group taken before Trump announced on March 18 that he would be indicted in Manhattan and after the indictment was formally announced last Thursday, Cheney ​has climbed to 10.3% from 5.3%​. In that same time, DeSantis has seen his numbers plummet from 32.2% to 22.5%. Trump was indicted...

Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), who was on the House select committee that probed the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol, weighed in on and welcomed potential House Republican plans to investigate Jan. 6 for themselves now that they control the lower chamber. “If @HouseGOP wants new Jan 6 hearings, bring it on. Let’s replay every witness & all the evidence from last year,” Cheney said on Twitter. “But this time, those members who sought pardons and/or hid from subpoenas should sit on the dais so they can be confronted on live TV with the unassailable evidence,” the...

Elon Musk DROPS Cheney, Kinzinger, and Schiff for MISLEADING Americans about J6 and it’s a BEAUTIFUL thing Posted at 9:11 am on March 7, 2023 by Sam J. Watching the J6 footage (thanks to Tucker Carlson and Kevin McCarthy) it looks more and more like Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger, Adam Schiff, and the rest of the J6 Committee deliberately misled the public to push a pre-approved, politically convenient narrative for Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats. Ok, so we all knew something was off when they brought in...

Liz Cheney is no longer a member of Congress, but that didn’t stop her from trying to pick a fight with Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-GA. Cheney tweeted from the unemployment line on Monday, lecturing Greene on the “governing principles of America” after the Georgia congresswoman proposed a national divorce. Greene had tweeted earlier, “We need a national divorce. We need to separate by red states and blue states and shrink the federal government. Everyone I talk to says this. From the sick and disgusting woke culture issues shoved down our throats to the Democrat’s traitorous America Last policies, we are...

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) will vacate her congressional seat on Tuesday after becoming a wealthy woman during her six years of serving Wyoming. Cheney, who lost her Republican primary by nearly 40 points in August, will depart Congress on January 3 and return home as a defeated 56-year-old never Trumper. Cheney will not depart Congress empty-handed. During her six years in Congress, she has become very wealthy. Breitbart News reported in August that Cheney’s net worth ballooned from an estimated $7 million when she first took office in 2017 to possibly more than $44 million in 2020. Depending on the...

There is a deepening division on the J6 Committee as staffers turn on Liz Cheney over the final report on the January 6th riot. Angry rhetoric is flying with staffers accusing the Committee of becoming a “Cheney 2024 campaign” while both the Cheney spokesperson and Committee spokesperson lashed out at the staff members as “disgruntled” and producing shoddy or biased work. The underlying issue, however, is important and revealing. The Committee’s color coated teams include a “Blue Team” on the failure to prepare adequately for the riot. That part of the investigation is reportedly being dumped or reduced. Members of...

EAST LANSING, Mich. — Republican Congresswoman Liz Cheney urged hundreds of mid-Michigan voters Tuesday to support her Democratic colleague, Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin, describing her as a candidate who would “put country above party.”

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) on Tuesday said it is “disgraceful” for some Republicans to be mocking Paul Pelosi, the husband of Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), after he was violently attacked at the couple’s San Francisco home last week. Cheney, speaking with journalist Judy Woodruff at an event put on by The City Club of Cleveland, specifically called out members of former President Trump’s family. “The fact that while Paul Pelosi was in ICU, had been brutally attacked, had a skull fracture and numerous other injuries, that there were members of my party mocking him, that there were members of President...

Elissa Slotkin of Michigan, the first time that the critic of former President Donald Trump who lost her GOP primary has crossed party lines to formally support a Democrat.

Their race is considered a toss-up by both sides and one of the Republicans’ chief targets in their campaign to win the House majority on Nov. 8.

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) on Sunday slammed House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) for suggesting a Republican-controlled Congress would not guarantee additional military aid for Ukraine, accusing him of aligning with Russia and seeking “political gain.”Cheney told NBC’s “Meet the Press” moderator Chuck Todd that McCarthy “always chooses to serve his own political purpose.”“The notion that now Kevin McCarthy is going to make himself the leader of the pro-Putin wing of my party is just a stunning thing,” she said, referencing Russian President Vladimir Putin. “It’s dangerous, he knows better.”Last week, McCarthy said there would be no “blank check” to...

The widespread and coordinated plan to divide the Republican Party has failed, and it’s a major reason why Democrat prospects for the 2022 midterms are so bad. Separating Republican officials from their growing coalition of voters and the issues they care about has been the Washington establishment’s goal for several years now. The “divide and conquer” plan is being run by the Democrat Party, its propaganda press, and former leaders of the Republican Party such as Liz Cheney, who see how the GOP’s new composition and approach has threatened or destroyed their hold on power. The D.C. partnership has worked...

The top Republican on the Jan. 6 committee said Sunday that the panel would not allow former President Donald Trump to turn his potentially live televised testimony into a “circus.” (HAHAHA!!)

McCarthy is hoping to become the next House Speaker if Republicans secure the House majority in next month's midterms, replacing current Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a California Democrat. During an interview on NBC's Meet the Press, host Chuck Todd asked the GOP lawmaker: "You clearly think this is a mistake...you are concerned about his speakership, what specifically concerns you?" "The speaker is second in line to presidency and at every moment, since frankly,...

Outgoing Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that she will do whatever it takes, including running for president, to stop Donald Trump from becoming president again. Anchor Chuck Todd said, “Donald Trump ends up the nominee in 2024. You’ve said you won’t be a Republican anymore, so it implies you think the party can be saved.” Cheney said, “I think the party has to come back from where we are right now, which is a dangerous and toxic place, or the party will splinter, and there will be a new conservative party that rises if...

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) on Tuesday said her work on the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol is “probably the most important thing I’ve done professionally.” “I’m very proud of the work that we’ve done and of my fellow members of that committee. I think it’s probably the most important thing I’ve ever done professionally, and absolutely crucial for the functioning of our democracy going forward,” Cheney said during a speaking event at Harvard University.

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) on Wednesday criticized her party for what she sees as a growing sector of the GOP that supports Russian President Vladimir Putin as he wages his attacks on Ukraine. “You know, the Republican Party is the party of Reagan, the party that essentially won the Cold War. And you look now at what I think is really a growing Putin wing of the Republican Party,” Cheney said at a McCain Institute event at Arizona State University.

Only NBC would declare it news when a Democrat like Liz Cheney campaigns against two Arizona Republicans. One thing you have to give Liz “Moneybags” Cheney credit for is knowing exactly how to sell her soul. Step 1: Even though you’re not, call yourself a Republican. Step 2: Trash other Republicans, most especially, those Republicans the media hate most, like Donald Trump and Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake. Step 3: Buy into every fake media narrative. Step 4: Never take a position that will lose your newfound status in the fake media, even if it means saying nothing while children...
