The Public Record
Liz Cheney is an American attorney and politician who served as the U.S. Representative for Wyoming's at-large congressional district from 2017 to 2023. A member of the Republican Party, she is the daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney. During her time in Congress, Cheney was known for her strong stance on national security and her opposition to former President Donald Trump, particularly following the events of January 6, 2021, which led to her being removed from her leadership position within the House Republican Conference.
Each of these efforts to overturn the election is independently serious. Each deserves attention both by Congress and by our Department of Justice.
We are obligated to seek answers directly from the man who set this all in motion.
If we want to ensure the survival of our Republic, we have to walk away from politics as usual. We have to walk away, we have to stand up every one of us and say, we are going to do what's right for this country. We're going to look beyond…
if she was an Ohio voter, she would vote for Tim Ryan, the Democratic candidate there.
There were some Republicans who spoke out and condemned this. Obviously, Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger, Mitch McConnell said he was horrified and disgusted. Mike Pence spoke out and said there was no tolerance.
The solution for conservatives cannot be that we’re going to torch the Constitution.
The notion that now Kevin McCarthy is going to make himself the leader of the pro-Putin wing of my party is just a stunning thing.
So we are anticipating that the former president will understand his legal obligation, will comply with the subpoena.
I think that it was the right thing for President Ford to do. I do not think that that would be the right thing for President Biden to do.
I think that the party has either got to come back from where we are right now, which is a very dangerous and toxic place, or the party will splinter and there will be a new conservative party that rises.
I think it's very important for everybody to recognize that when you are faced with a set of facts, when you're faced with evidence as clear as this is, ... you may not send an armed mob to the Capitol.
I think it's very important to take politics out of it. The committee is investigating and proceeding in a way that is not partisan at all.
You have got a lot of Republicans who are saying, 'You know what? I'm going to ignore the threat posed by the former president who attempted to use force to stop – to overturn an election.'
Nobody should be out advocating for the election of people who will not honor the sanctity of our elections process.
They need to recognize that election deniers are anti-democracy, and they should not vote for those people.
Look, there are very few certainties in politics. But one thing that you can absolutely count on is that there are tens of millions of Americans who will do everything we need to do to make sure Donald Trump is never the president again.
We know, for example, from his own actions and his own inactions what he did and failed to do while the attack was under way.
Our institutions only hold when men and women of good faith make them hold regardless of the political cost.
We need to demonstrate that the United States of America recognizes we have to be a leader in the world.
He's not going to turn this into a circus. This isn't going to be, you know, his first debate against Joe Biden and the circus and the food fight that that became.
