Cheney: ‘The Only Way the Republican Party Can Go Forward in Strength is if We Reject the Lie’
Wyoming Congresswoman Liz Cheney joined host Chris Wallace on “Fox News Sunday” to discuss being honored by The Panetta Institute for Public Policy as a 2021 recipient of the Jefferson-Lincoln Award. Wallace asked Cheney how she balances being partisan and patriotic.
Cheney was also asked about being one of the few Republicans willing to join the January 6th Committee.
Cheney also said it was un-American and dangerous to suggest the deadly assault on the Capitol on January 6 was a false flag attack. The January 6 committee issued additional subpoenas Monday to six high-profile allies of former President Donald Trump, including former national security advisor Michael Flynn and attorney John Eastman.

The only way the failed GOP can go forward is to reject the constant brainwashing far right ding dongs have instilled in all the sheep that follow t-rump.America will go down one day as a failed European experiment if people do not get their heads out of those dark places.

Have you read the green new $1.5 trillion infrastructure bill fred? Only $110 billion goes to actual infrastructure, while the rest will line some congressional and bureaucratic pockets. Ill never understand how highways, interstates, and other inanimate objects can be racist. You have to be a good biden lamb to believe that dogma.

Biden may be a puppet,as is t-rump,but…so far he hasn’t tried to get Mexico to pay for the wall, or is constantly whining and crying about losing an election.Since I left the failed GOP I have been on the outside looking in and have actually seen the forest…for the trees…where you get the idea I am a Biden fan…I’ll never know.You should try it sometime.

Hahahaha. All we can do is laugh! January 6th happened because citizens are getting tired of a corrupt government. If they think January 6th is a big deal, then they better get prepped for what’s coming. If the country continues its current course, there will be civil war. The current administration is in control of our future. Resign, change your ways and put our country back the way you found it, or deal with a bunch of angry citizens ready to fight for their freedom.

The only way the Republican Party can move forward is to rid it of neocons, like Cheney.

It is my sincere hope that both the republican and democratic parties fail, they are both corrupted to their very core. I recently saw a poll that shows approximately half the population is now identifying as independent, this shouldn’t be surprising considering how far the left and the right sides have moved apart, while most people have always been much more moderate than certain factions within their parties. IF a third party made up of moderate independents that opposed the corruption and actually put America first could ever be organized in a coherent manner, the support is out there to bury the currently failing 2 party system that is so divisive and corrupted beyond repair at this point.

Ms cheney moved forward on the impeachment of President Trump without any evidence to back up pelosis articles. Ms. cheneys inquisition has not proven that J6 was NOT a false flag event. People who entered the capitol in an orderly manner through open doors to take selfies, is not an insurrection. Hope the money was worth it, liz.

Well, Ms. Cheney, if you REALLY want to know the TRUTH about what happened in the 2020 “election,” I suggest you read two books. The first is by one of the only remaining genuine investigative journalists left in America, Mollie Hemingway, entitled “Rigged.” The other is titled “Our Stolen Elections” by longtime election researcher John Fund and election attorney Hans von Spakovsky. The lefties will scream, light their hair on fire, and throw themselves on the ground at the very titles of these books without ever reading one page of either. For those genuinely concerned with the disgraceful manner in which our elections have become corrupt and perverted over time, these books will provide the DOCUMENTED and FACTUAL evidence that even a semi-objective person will find impossible to rebut. But, by all means, Liz, you continue pounding the table with your newfound allies in the Democrat Party. That should get you a lot of votes in Wyoming. I can’t wait for you to explain to the voters next year how it is that you think that holding people accused of misdemeanors for their role in Jan 6th without bail whilst ignoring the fact that “protesters” in Portland and Seattle from last summer who were caught on tape committing aggravated felonies were released immediately without having to post bail. Is that your idea of “defending the Constitution?” Can’t wait to hear you dance around that one in next year’s debates.

I find I have very little in common with Representative Cheney. However, on this issue I and most the rational citizens of this country agree with her. Those insurrectionists responsible for attempting to over-throw our Government must be held accountable starting with president Trump

Trump was there on January 6th? Storming the Capitol? I think you may have your facts a little skewed. All I saw was a bunch of aggravated United States citizens that are fed up with corrupt government. A little radical? Probably. But more and more people are rising. January 6th was a blip compared to what’s coming.

Sounds like you have blindly accepted the big lie. Its shame folks are unable to see beyond what the orange charlatan says. However, in the end facts are facts and for every action is there is an equal and opposite reaction.

So i guy dressed in a viking suit is going to over throw the govt? I remind you that the only person to die that day was an unarmed female shot by a GOVT CAPITOL POLICE OFFICER. Should that officer be held accountable? I think you have a future on CNN

Fortunately for the nation, the Trump insurrectionists were incompetent much like their dear leader. The officer did what he had to do to keep the horde out of our nations sacred halls. I think you have a future in the tin foil hat industry.

Swamp Child is part of the RINO Problem…… She is out of touch with Wyoming, and needs to go back home to Virginia. She was elected to represent the people of Wyoming, not her own family issues with Trump. She isn’t Wyoming, and Wyoming isn’t her!

My beef with Liz is how do you vote to remove someone from office that is no longer in office? Its like firing someone that has retired.
