Elise Stefanik Calls Liz Cheney a 'Pelosi Pawn'
Fox News
Rep. Elise Stefanik called fellow Republican House member Liz Cheney a “Pelosi pawn” after Cheney criticized Stefanik for saying House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is to blame for the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol.
Stefanik, who became the third-ranking House Republican after the party ousted Cheney from the position in May, had said earlier on Tuesday that Americans "deserve to know the truth — that Nancy Pelosi bears responsibility as Speaker of the House for the tragedy that occurred on January 6." CNN’s Jake Tapper later Tuesday asked Cheney about the comments, eliciting Cheney to characterize them as shameful, and blaming former President Donald Trump for the Jan. 6 riot at the CapitolMore Related News
