Chuck Grassley: “Dick Cheney lived a life of service to his country. He was bit by the political bug, biting him very early in his life…”

On the recordNovember 4, 2025
Dick Cheney lived a life of service to his country. He was bit by the political bug, biting him very early in his life, and he was committed in his entire life to public service. He served as White House Chief of Staff under President Ford. He was a Congressman for the people of Wyoming. He was the 17th Secretary of Defense and the 45th Vice President of the United States. Dick Cheney was a part of American history for more than five decades. Barbara and I will pray for Dick's family as they mourn the loss of a beloved family member.
