When Rep. Liz Cheney was picked by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to serve as vice chairman of the Jan. 6 committee, the Wyoming Republican launched one of her biggest lies.
Cheney said she took the job to ensure the committee would achieve its goal of conducting a “nonpartisan, professional, and thorough investigation” of the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.
But her time on the panel has not been nonpartisan, professional, or thorough.
From the very start, she helped load the scales against former President Donald Trump. At no time did Cheney bother to act judiciously or fairly.
She came to the select committee with the mindset of a hanging judge. Before the panel had completed its investigation, she charged that what Trump did on Jan. 6 was both unconstitutional and illegal.
Cheney knew from its inception that the panel had been heavily stacked by Pelosi against anyone who thought that Trump was not guilty of a crime, even though many distinguished jurists thought the case against Trump was nonexistent.
Two liberal publications, The Washington Post and The New York Times—both of which loathe the former president—took that exact position in their news stories. Instead of finding him guilty of any criminal conduct, they found him innocent of all the serious charges that Liz Cheney and her Democratic allies leveled against him.
No matter. Cheney not only brazenly tilted facts in a way as to put Trump behind bars, but in this crucial midterm election year, she began working overtime to purge from public office several conservative GOP lawmakers who also don’t think that the former president committed a crime. If successful, of course, her actions will widen the Democratic majority in both the Senate and the House.
liz cheney chaney is just like her daddy dick chaney, a snake in the grass. Let us never forget the shooting dick was trigger man in, that got swept under the rug years ago.
Liz is just like her Dad Dick Cheney liars are they.
