Republican Rep. Liz Cheney suggested Sunday that former President Donald Trump's tweets chastising Mike Pence during the January 6 riot ty the Capitol complex was, potentially, "a premeditated effort to provoke violence" during an appearance on "Fox News Sunday." "I think people all across Wyoming understand and recognize that our duty is to the Constitution," she said in response to being formally censured by the Wyoming Republican Party on February 6 over her vote to impeach the former president a second time. "The oath that I took to the Constitution compelled me to vote for impeachment and it doesn't bend

Liz should take a couple of days off. Relax awhile. Maybe go hunting with her dad.

This stupid woman doesn't understand that people all across Wyoming and the rest of the world DO understand what 'duty to the Constitution' means. Allowing a blatant chinese steal of a national election is NOT doing your duty, idiot. Just admit that you are tight to the beltway club and that every Trump attack is to preserve all that dirty money your family and friends 'earned' selling out the USA. Live in fear that actual justice, duty and the Constitution will be followed up on and you will have to face it.

Liz, ever hear the phrase, "when you are in a hole, stop digging"?
You are obviously not very bright and soon will be former Congresswoman.

Trying desperately to come up with a reason to justify her unjustifiable vote now that we know that the riot was (1) planned in advance by Antifa and BLM, and (2) started before Trump said anything about peacefully marching to the Capital building,
Face it Liz - you rushed to judgement without benefit of the facts or due process. You screwed up, and no ex post facto rationale will change that.

Good Lord, doesn't she understand she is gone in 2022? Between Matt Gaetz and Scott Presler (#ThePersistence) her career is toast.

If she is so certain of her moral duty to the Constitution why didn't she have the courage to go before her constituents before the vote and make her case to them? She never responded to their requests for a meeting or in anyway acknowledged that she was their representative and not her own self righteous source of power. If she and her party are betting on the short attention spans of Republican grass roots voters they are going to lose big time.

Rep. Cheney, if your duty is to the Constitution, please explain how you can vote for an action that is clearly, demonstrably unconstitutional? The Constitution explicitly indicates that impeachment is to remove an official, not punish someone no l longer in office.

So a tweet chastising someone is now a high crime or misdemeanor? Seriously?
Congrats to Cheney, it's not easy to come off as dumber than Chrissie Wallace, but she obviously managed.

Quite a lot of interpretation in Liz's view of that quote. if instead of using a literal meaning, using interpretation can bring up any result you want. We know that Liz's daddy didn't like Trump, We know that, Liz.

So if I understand correctly, BLM and Antifa had advance knowledge of Trump's tweet when they were planning the riot days before. Got it, Liz. Thanks for clarifying.

Interesting. After being censured in Wyoming with a Wyoming GOP demand for her to resign and pay back the money donors gave her, Liz Cheney says "Eff y'all! I'm doubling down." Maybe that vote to remove her from GOP house leadership maybe shouldn't have been so secret after all.

Cheney is an idiot. She has not made any effort to look into what really happened on Jan 6, voting without hearing or seeing any evidence whatsoever. That is the act of a fool, which she is.

Maybe the Cheney's THINK they own WY, but the real tell will be in 2022 when she is up for re-election. I think Trump and some of his biggest supporters will be out in full force, campaigning for her Primary Challenger! I did not watch Wallace and Cheney this morning, but reading what she had to say make me think it came straight out of Dick Cheney's mouth! He knows she stepped in it. I don't think he can save her. I think her "Career" is mostly over!

Liz ain't dumb. She's one of, or a combination of: 1) benefitting from the fraud, 2) too cowardly to confront the fraud, or 3) part of the conspiracy. I'd go with all of the above.

She's lining herself up for a 7-figure job in the military-industrial-government complex. She will also make big bucks as a "conservative" commentator on NBC/CNBC/MSNBC as well as a guest on late night "comedy" shows.
The one thing she has no plans to do is go back to WY. She's a DC elite thru and thru

Cheney is an anti-Trump globalist who didn't like Trump's policies because they cut into her pocketbook. She is also my rep -- for I hope only 2 more years. Her line that "I think people all across Wyoming understand and recognize that our duty is to the Constitution," is also trying to use the Constitution to justify her vote. Apparently she only believes, like Democrats, in those parts of the Constitution that support what they want. Cheney forgot about due process which is enshrined in the Constitution, about being innocent until proven guilty, about being able to present evidence for ones innocence. These parts of the Constitution didn't matter to Cheney because she hates Trump. To me this proves she is an arrogant, empty, ethicless and dishonest person who does not represent me or anyone I know in Wyoming.

Cheney's statement comes from the same place where Bush called the vermin Clyburn our "savior" . At least we are no longer nursing any illusions about these people.

She is a globalist like her Dad, obviously she hates the idea of any sort of "America first" political agenda, and that's why she is targeting Trump. She is in a big hole as far as the Republicans in Wyoming are concerned, and it looks like she will continue to keep digging.
