Liz Cheney: Democrats "pure evil", will turn "maternity wards turned into killing fields"

[867-5309.]

Just a reminder how disgusting she is. Our cooperation with her on J6 is purely transactional.

1. I don't need the daily reminder. If we don't have democracy everything else is for naught.

There are NO GOOD REPUBLICANS. We all know that.

[Funtatlaguy]

2. In politics, war, sports, etc. "the enemy of my enemy is my friend".

Right now, our country is in crisis mode to prove that Trump and Trumpers have tried and are still trying to destroy democracy.
Liz believes in democracy. She is also very far right of center in her policy viewpoints.

[PortTack]

6. I too believe very strongly in the idea of enemy of my enemy my friend

When j6 is over ….the friendship ends.

She is said to be mulling the idea of presidential run. If she really really wanted to put a complete and total end to trump and his cronies she would run as an independent!

[dwayneb]

62. Any port in a storm

In many ways her world view and values are totally different from mine.

But she still believes in Democracy and we should be thankful for that. Without that, this country will regress into another apartheid era South Africa, or worse.

[PortTack]

3. And there you have it .....nuttier than a fruit cake!

[pnwmom]

73. Why does anything she said in 2019 matter now? We knew she wasn't an ally then.

And she only is now because of Trump, but that's fine.

The fact that she's standing with us now, despite all her opposed views, shows how serious she is about Trump.

[duckworth969]

4. She's a Cheney, what would you expect?

I just need her to get this J6 stuff done, then she get tossed off a cliff for all I care.

[Haggard Celine]

45. Funny, Cheneys don't care about killing fields

when they're making profits off of them.

[LakeArenal]

5. Is this recent? Wow.

[Deuxcents]

15. It said July 4, 2022

But is that when she gave that speech or is it when it was posted?

And if I may add..she’s certainly a woman of her convictions and gets her message across. She’s on the same page as us for J6 n if she’s ever in a position to be on our side again, I think she’ll put every effort out there b/c that’s what she is showing me, at least, who she is, we know where she stands, how she thinks n now, know what to expect n how to work with this person. The J6 committee has done a damn good job. No infighting..looks very disciplined n dedicated to get to the truth. Gotta always keep our eyes on the prize.

[SunSeeker]

36. No, the video clip of her talking about abortion is from 2019.

She is referring to the Governor of Virginia supporting abortion rights. She was referring to Democratic Governor Ralph Northam. Northam was succeeded by anti-abortion Republican Glenn Youngkin in November of 2021, so it can't be 2022 in the video.

[Mad_Machine76]

38. Northam wasn't defeated

He couldn’t run again.

[SunSeeker]

39. Ok, but Youngkin (R) won the VA governorship in Nov. 2021. The point is this clip was in 2019.

Not 2022.

[pnwmom]

72. Winslow posted it on July 4, 2022, but Cheny SAID this in Feb. 2019

when the Democrat Ralph North Northam was in office.

I'm disappointed with Winslow that he'd do a splice and dice job like this.

[SunSeeker]

37. No, the video of her talking about abortion is from 2019. nt

[obamanut2012]

60. No, 2019

[Karma13612]

7. So freakin' sad. Eom

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

8. Never forget this!!

[C Moon]

9. So now I wonder if she's only working with J6, so she can get Trump out of the way in 2024.

I knew something like this was going to happen.

[PatrickforB]

28. She definitely wants to run.

No doubt.

[Ocelot II]

10. Or... we could consider that this is the way temporary, emergency alliances work.

Cheney was in the GOP leadership, so of course she made highly partisan statements, and we know full well that she holds views that are anathema to most progressives. However, we are currently facing an existential threat to democracy, so for the duration of the emergency, the enemy of my enemy has to be my friend. And for the duration of that emergency, it is also not productive to regard the enemy of my enemy as also my enemy if they don’t agree with us on all other issues.

I see absolutely no value in undercutting Cheney or Kinzinger while as members of the J6 Committee they are effectively exposing Trump's crimes.

[LakeArenal]

70. I agree.

Also, with the backlash on reversal, she may have a different more politically palatable stance on it.

12. Ally vs Friend

A friend is someone who is with you 99% of the time and is a friend through good and bad
And ally is convenient and issue-to-issue
Stalin was an ally, not a friend

[eppur_se_muova]

54. THIS! nt

[usonian]

13. The only good republican is

is

is

Hold on. Phone call.

[NanceGreggs]

14. And the purpose of posting this ...

... is what exactly?

I doubt that anyone here doesn't know that Liz Cheney is a Republican, and that many of her past positions are abhorrent - and in all probability, her future positions will be equally so.

But in the here and now, she is serving an invaluable service in her role on the J-6 Committee, and admirably so.

The fact that she perceives Democrats as being "evil", and yet joined them to investigate Trump's crimes and that of his co-conspirators, is a testament to her willingness to put country above party - even at the expense of her own political career.

Whatever she did before now, and whatever she will do in future, is irrelevant to the issues-at-hand.

Let's leave the Liz-bashing to Republicans, and stop undermining her service to a righteous cause.

[Hugin]

18. Nice. Clear. To the point.

[Ocelot II]

25. Yup, all this bashing is just stupid,

and Don Winslow seems to be missing the point altogether, which is that Liz Cheney is not only useful, but essential to what the J6 Committee is trying to accomplish. There is nothing to be gained by undercutting her or Kinzinger, notwithstanding their views on other, unrelated issues - however much we might find those views unacceptable. Those two have made common cause with the Democrats in an essential matter, effectively torpedoing their political careers (Kinzinger isn't running again, and Cheney is being primaried by a Trumper and will probably lose). Whatever their views on abortion or whatever might not even matter if they've been sidelined by their own party.

[SunSeeker]

43. Thank you. Winslow has really been bashing Cheney and it is not helping us.

Cheney has no chance to win her seat back in Wyoming, let alone get the Republican nomination for President. I don't know why Winlow feels compelled to dredge up this shit from 2019.

She is referring to the Governor of Virginia supporting abortion rights. She was referring to Democratic Governor Ralph Northam. Northam was succeeded by anti-abortion Republican Glenn Youngkin in November of 2021, so it can't be 2022 in the video.

She doesn't call us the "Democrat Party" anymore. She calls us by our name, the Democratic Party. That video was from 2019. I think her change of tone may be because she finally saw REAL evil on 1/6/2021, and has put aside the anti-abortion, anti-Democratic Party bullshit, at least for now. I think she saw how dangerous it could be to repeat the lies of the stupid GOP base.

Bashing her at this point serves no purpose.

[Mr. Evil]

48. Then again...

Maybe she is using the J6 Committee as her friend to defeat her enemies. She wants to be president and the allies of her father will see to it. She wants to destroy TFG but, cannot do it alone. She needs many others to be ridiculed, indicted, humiliated or just outright ruined to have a shot at continuing her father's legacy. Where does everyone think she got her political acumen from? She's a republican and she wants the power her father could never have. In other words, she is a snake and a chameleon. She sure as hell isn't doing any of this work within the J6 Committee for love of country and our best interests.

Her father, his loyal cronies and their newfound blood are as sinister as they come. They're republicans (the Party Of Death). They'll destroy everyone and everything in their way. That's all they do. And I think they're plan is to destroy TFG, DeathSentence and any other Death Party candidate that dares to become an obstacle.

The enemy of my enemy is a snake and a chameleon and is playing both sides for her ultimate goal.

Maybe I'm wrong but, I never put anything past them.

[JI7]

52. Anyone who thinks she can be President is a fucking idiot

[uponit7771]

56. ... said Donald Trump.

[JI7]

59. Trump had support from a Party that represents his views

Who is going to support Cheney ?

[Mr. Evil]

67. The republican mind

is a bit distorted and disturbing. They always think they have a way to game the system. The republicans got their way in 2000 and 2016 so who knows what they'll try next.

If you're implying that I think she can be president, you're dead wrong. But, she's a republican and lusts for that power every day. They cheat and they'll fuck over anyone, R or D, even the entire country, to get what they want.

[NanceGreggs]

53. I'm trying to figure out ...

... how this brilliant strategy is supposed to work.

Liz becomes president by turning against her own party and destroying Trump and his allies - but she can't do it alone, and the allies of her father will see to it?

Where are these alleged allies of her father now? Why are they not defending her, championing her position, aiding in taking down Trump so as to clear the way for Liz's triumphant election as POTUS?

I think your "logic" might be a tad flawed.

[Mr. Evil]

65. OK,

I'm just not as smart as you.

They do their dirty work in the dark. They don't brag about what they want and they only want to neuter her obstacles. These people are devious. I've read enough of your posts over the years to know you understand this. It's sort of 'old money' vs. 'new money.'

My take is that Liz Cheney is the daughter of Dick(head) Cheney. She is not our friend, nor will she ever be. And anyone that thinks she is, is also using logic that's a tad flawed. But, she is up to something and it isn't good.

[NanceGreggs]

66. Please enlighten us all ...

... as to "the something she's up to" ... and how being part of the J-6 Committee is part of her evil plan to become POTUS.

I am truly fascinated by the logic behind this scheme.

[Mr. Evil]

68. This isn't rocket science.

It's to make her likeable with the older independents and conservative D's. They'd fuck over anyone to attain what they want. The only good R are those that have renounced their (former) party's direction in recent years and left the party altogether. I do not trust her. She's playing some angle.

I'm 62 and I have learned a few things in this life. I actually love reading your posts but, please don't be condescending just because I don't agree with you automatically. I'm allowed to have my opinion and to be skeptical. I don't have all the answers but, *newsflash!* neither do you. And both of us, along with everyone else, will see what she's up to in a little less than 2 years.

[NanceGreggs]

69. This has nothing to do ...

... with agreeing with me, automatically or otherwise.

Yes, you are allowed your opinion - but unless you have something to support that opinion, it is irrelevant.

Saying "we'll see what she's up to in a little less than 2 years" has nothing to do with what she's doing right now.

I'm still waiting for you to explain how Liz Cheney is on her way to the WH as a result of her being on the J-6 Committee.

[Mr. Evil]

71. I just don't trust her.

It's like making as many people look really bad (anyone involved with TFG) so that in the end she'll look good and more noble. Republicans are known for playing the long game.

I'm not privy to republican insiders nor would I want to be. If I had actual information to support my opinion it would no longer be just an opinion, it would be fact.

I never said she's on her way to the WH. She wants to go there. Don't forget who her father is. He's as cold and calculating as they come and I'm of the belief that he passed on some of that political acumen to her. They're republicans. They aren't motivated by kindness or integrity. How many posts have you made and that I have read describing their callous, abhorrent behavior? I'm suspicious, ok. Dick Cheney always had something us his sleeve and I just think she does, also.

If it turns out that I'm wrong I'll be the first one to admit it.

[uponit7771]

55. There are PLENTY of people who don't know what *KIND* of republican Liz Cheney is. She's holding

... her own on J6C cause she loves her country first but that's where sound thinking stops.

[NanceGreggs]

58. It doesn't matter.

The only thing that matters right now is her role on the J-6 Committee.

[pnwmom]

76. Exactly. In fact, her credibility is heightened among R's and Indie's because she has a long

history of opposing us on the other issues.

[obamanut2012]

61. +1

[LoisB]

16. She is a Republican. I think McCarthy and the rest made a mistake in removing her from

her leadership role. Perhaps she wants to take them all down, perhaps she just hates TFG, perhaps she's planning her run for President or maybe she believes in the Constitution and thinks what happened that day was beyond the pale. I don't know what her motives are but she is doing a really good job on the J6 Committee.

[keithbvadu2]

17. Republicans are in favor of killing living babies and have done so.

Republicans are in favor of killing living babies and have done so.

Pro-life to conservatives/republicans is a myth.

The supposed pro-lifers cared naught when the state of Texas (republican gov, republican Prez) deliberately killed living baby Sun Hudson against the mother's wishes because he was an inconvenience to the state.

It is not a matter of life to the supposed pro-lifers.

It is a matter of control.

[ColinC]

19. "you kill babies but please coalesce around me in my primary"

What a selling point

[Eyeball_Kid]

20. Oh, Liz! We were turning into such good friends, and then this.

She was becoming America's stern but loving mother. She could have become a great successor to Oprah. And then this...

Maternal celebrity turned into the Ayatollah. Crap.

[comradebillyboy]

21. Liz is deplorable, but at the moment she is quite useful.

We have a temporary alliance that is mutually beneficial. Let's see if she's still in congress after the mid terms.

[TreasonousBastard]

22. WTF is she talking about? When did Dems advocate killing...

babies?

[vanlassie]

24. Good Question

[Mariana]

26. She's just lying, like any other Republican.

Anti-choice Republican voters love to hear stuff like this. They don't care whether it's true.

[pnwmom]

74. What she said was in 2019, and Winslow has put this together to suggest it's current.

I'm more disappointed in him than her. We knew she was opposed to us on all the issues except Trump.

[FreepFryer]

23. sick projection is now a GOP litmus (nt)

[Whiskeytide]

27. I suspect Cheney is one of the ...

… few Republican politicians on which Тяцмp and the GRU couldn't find any real dirt. I believe a lot of them are somehow compromised, and the ones who aren’t suck up to Тяцмp for the base vote. A few have some decency, and are pretty clean - but they are still republicans.

[Gaugamela]

29. Lying through her fuckin' face and she knows it. She's trying to set herself

up for a run for the President. Pathetic.

[pnwmom]

78. She said it in 2019, and it's irrelevant why. The only thing that should matter to us

is her work on the committee now.

I'm disappointed in Winslow that he would post a deceptive tweet.

[elleng]

30. 'purely transactional' can be useful,

and thinking people recognize that.

[Samrob]

31. There is simply no reason for any Democrat to vote for Liz Cheney for any position after J6 is over.

[Thtwudbeme]

32. Huh- oh well, I prefer that to the war zones of elementary schools

churches, concerts, 4th of July parades.....

[SunSeeker]

33. She doesn't call us the "Democrat Party" anymore. She calls us by our name, the Democratic Party.

That video was from 2019. I think her change of tone may be because she finally saw REAL evil on 1/6/2021, and has put aside the anti-abortion, anti-Democratic Party bullshit, at least for now. I think she saw how dangerous it could be to repeat the lies of the stupid GOP base.

Bashing her at this point serves no purpose.

[pnwmom]

41. I agree. I see nothing recent about that topic except Winslow's tweet.

Everything else is from 2019.

[SunSeeker]

44. It can't be 2022 I'm the clip. She is referring to the then-Democratic Gov of VA, Ralph Northam.

She is referring to the Governor of Virginia supporting abortion rights. She was referring to Democratic Governor Ralph Northam. Northam was succeeded by anti-abortion Republican Glenn Youngkin in November of 2021, so it can't be 2022 in the video. It is a misleading posting by Winslow. Why is he doing that?

[Bev54]

34. Never again say she is an arbiter of truth, she is a lying republican

Just wants Trump out of the way and is doing the job assigned by her Daddy and buddies. It must be so difficult for the democrats on the committee to work with her after this type of nonsense. Well I now hope the dems in Wyoming do not vote for her in the primary.

[SunSeeker]

46. This clip was from 2019. She is not saying this lie now, we NEED her on the J6 Committee.

If she loses her seat, there is NO Republican who will replace her. And she is doing a great job. She is certainly not repeating any lies from her position on the J6 Committee.


That video was from 2019, not 2022, as suggested by Winslows misleading post initially flashing a current Fox shot of her before the older video begins. Not cool.

She doesn't call us the "Democrat Party" anymore like in that video. She calls us by our name, the Democratic Party. I think her change of tone may be because she finally saw REAL evil on 1/6/2021, and has put aside the anti-abortion, anti-Democratic Party bullshit, at least for now. I think she saw how dangerous it could be to repeat the lies of the stupid GOP base.

Bashing her at this point serves no purpose. She needs help or she is on track to lose the GOP primary in Wyoming. The Dem candidate has no chance. Whoever wins the GOP primary will win the Wyoming House seat. Why would we want Liz Chaney replaced by a pro big lie Republican?

[pnwmom]

40. I think this really came from something she said in 2019.

Except for Winslow's tweet, these quotes of hers all appear to be from 2019.

But that's really far afield and nothing like what Republicans are doing to fuck up actual babies who don't have parents with money.

All's fair on the election trail, I suppose.

[czarjak]

42. When you're spawned by a Real Dick, you "wouldn't change a thing"...

Let's Go Your Daddy

[live love laugh]

47. Maternity wards to killing fields .... wtf

Such exaggerated BS.

I especially hate those who think what they do is what others should do as well.

She is the mother of 5 — good for her. That’s not true for more than 50% of women let alone mothers.

[Skittles]

50. THANK YOU

I am tired of all the fawning on DU, she is a repuke through and through, she's fighting for old school repukes, not America.

[jcgoldie]

51. fuck Liz Cheney

She spent 4 years voting with Trump before she suddenly got a conscience when he tried to overthrow the republic. She is not our friend and its fucked up how much she is lionized on DU.

[raccoon]

57. Damn, and she seemed so smart and professional. Nt

[pnwmom]

75. Nothing about what she said in 2019 should change our minds. We KNEW

she opposed us on almost all the issues. That gives her even more credibility as a member of the committee, not less.

[Maru Kitteh]

63. Winslow WRITES for a living yet spells "they're" their.

SMDH.





We already understood who Cheney is, but thanks Dad.

[nolabear]

81. You know, it is possible to miss an autocorrect.

It’s happened to me, and I’m as grammar Nazi as they come.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

64. Dear GOP: Don't fool yourself into thinking Democrats are enamored by this woman.

She's still a Cheney and good at projection and radical right-wing evil like her dad. She'll throw America under the bus any day of week just for a lowered corporate tax rate.

Never forget or forgive Tricky Dick II and Halliburton.


KY.....

[Elessar Zappa]

77. She's valuable when it comes to protecting Democracy.

Otherwise, she’s a wing nut.

[Bettie]

79. She is our ally in one specific, narrow and short term issue

on everything else, we need to remember, she's not our friend, or really anyone's friend. She's a Cheney, which means she'll stab anyone in the back for the sake of her ambition.

[pnwmom]

80. Yeah, narrow like: is our democracy going to survive or not?

I don't give a damn what she said about abortion 3 years ago. It's not news to anyone here that she's hard right.

[Bettie]

83. I'm just saying I don't expect her

to ever support anything other than this that is even vaguely good for humans or the country.

Who knew Cheneys had a line they won't cross?

[DiamondShark]

82. Can you repost on Twitter?

k thx bye

[pnwmom]

84. He got it from Twitter. It doesn't need more exposure there. Cheney is one of only 2 R's

to stand up for our democracy.

What she said in 2019 about ANY other topic doesn't matter now.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

85. You can be anti-choice without that overwrought rhetoric.

Also, it's an old clip.
