By The Next Hearing, Liz Cheney Will Be A Lame Duck Congressional Representative

Whatever you want to say about her politics, and believe me, I'd like to say A Lot, she sacrificed her career to do the right thing this one time.

I can't imagine how she'll feel, if no consequences result from this committee, but I feel confident she won't regret the choice she made.

And another goal is to educate the American public about exactly what happened that day.

She has achieved the goal of informing the public.

We shall see if it ruins Trump's chances of winning an election in the future.
And if the DOJ picks up the baton and runs with her work.

And I don’t understand why Murkowski would have any loyalty to the Republican Party after the way she had to fight just to get on the ballot

We haven’t seen the last of her. She could find herself in demand for other offers as her performance on the committee shows her true grit.. I only wish she were always in sync with our visions n platforms
