LIZ CHENEY FOR PRESIDENT?????? Why would former Rep. Liz Cheney run for president? Is she nuts? Is she trying to sell a book? Why would a Republican whose last election was losing a state primary by 37 points think she should now seek the highest office in the land? Why would a politician hated by most of her own party and used by the other party simply to attack her colleagues think she could bring 80 million people together behind a Cheney candidacy?
for each other and we get to the goal, which is providing the american people with a full accounting of what took place on january 6th. we re also going to be releasing the evidence, which may be the most important thing. the voluminous transcripts the documents and emails. we want to make sure that s put before the american people. we certainly don t want the jim jordans of the world to cherry pick anything not disclosed and make a false or misleading narrative out of it. so the country will have the evidence. they re going to have our report. and i m enormously proud of what we ve done. schiff didn t comment on allegations of liz cheney s spokesperson accused staffers of trying to slip liberal biases into the report. there does seem to be tension surrounding the vice chair of the committee liz cheney. one former staffer told the washington post that people working for the committee became, quote, discouraged when they felt it had become a cheney
around the vice chair of the committee, liz cheney. one former staffer told the washington post that people working for the committee became discouraged when they felt it had become a, quote, cheney 2024 campaign? is that fair? i never viewed it that way. i think her role on the committee has been indispensable. i have tremendous respect for her and adam kinzinger. they ve shown a lot of courage and backbone, something in very short supply in the gop these days. the committee would not have been the same without both of their participation, and i have nothing but respect for both of them. as you well know, the man who was trying to be speaker, republican kevin mccarthy says that he wants to kick you off the intelligence committee, the committee that you now chair because of your handling of the trump/russia investigation, specifically that you repeatedly asserted there was direct evidence of collusion direct collusion which didn t materialize.
separate appendices, what can be corroborated. we want to make sure we have every fact nailed down. that s part of the reason our committee has been so successful and we want it to continue to be. before i do, there seems to be tension around the vice chair of the committee, liz cheney. one former staffer told the washington post that people working for the committee became discouraged when they felt it had become a, quote, cheney 2024 campaign? i never viewed it that way. i think her role on the committee has been indispensable. i have tremendous respect for her and adam kinzinger. they ve shown a lot of courage and backbone, something in very short supply in the gop these days. the committee would not have been the same without both of their participation, and i have nothing but respect for both of them. as you well know, the man who was trying to be speaker, republican kevin mccarthy says that he wants to kick you off
that she wants to keep the focus on trump, there is a sort of juxtaposition here because as the focus is on trump, the committee itself and multiple members that i ve been talking to over the course of the last year, have really tried to make the point that this is a threat that started with trump. but that it s a threat that far extends him. it makes sense while they want to keep the focus on trump, they want to show what went wrong on january 6th from a security perspective, but also what that threat is continuously. clearly tension within the committee trying to spell out publicly as they get into their final weeks in existence. we know republicans control the house chamber and this committee is done. david, one of the staffers said the committee has become a cheney 2024 campaign. is it that liz cheney has that much power and sway in that committee? look, i think there s a division among members and there s no question that the primary challenge and problem here was donald trump
