Liz Cheney Says ‘History Is Watching’ As GOP Leaders Try To Punish Her For Telling Truth
HuffPost
The Republican said the GOP's ongoing embrace of former President Donald Trump "will do profound long-term damage to our party and our country.”
Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) wrote Wednesday that she believed the Republican Party was at “a turning point” amid a growing call from her colleagues that she be removed from her leadership post for rejecting former President Donald Trump’s lies about the 2020 presidential election. In an opinion piece in The Washington Post, Cheney, the third-highest-ranking House GOP member, said efforts to punish her for telling the truth amounted to an attack on “truth and fidelity to the Constitution.” Cheney was one of 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach Trump for his role in inciting the deadly Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, and she has continued to reject his false claims that the election was “stolen” from him. President Joe Biden won that race by more than 7 million votes. “Republicans must decide whether we are going to choose truth and fidelity to the Constitution,” Cheney wrote in the op-ed. “In the immediate wake of the violence of Jan. 6, almost all of us knew the gravity and the cause of what had just happened — we had witnessed it firsthand.”
