Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) on Sunday suggested that House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) is withholding "important information" about the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

"I ask this about both McCarthy and Elise Stefanik (R-NY)," Wallace said. "Are they being complicit in what you consider the Trump lies?"

"They are," Cheney agreed. "And I'm not willing to do that. There are some things that have to be bigger than party, that have to be bigger than partisanship. Our oath to the Constitution is one of those."

Wallace went on to ask Cheney about her recent suggestion that McCarthy should testify before a bipartisan commission about his knowledge of the Jan. 6 attack.

"I think it's very important," Cheney explained. "He clearly has facts about that day that an investigation into what happened, into the president's actions ought to get to the bottom of. And I think that he has important information that needs to be part of any investigation, whether it's the FBI, the Department of Justice or this commission that I hope will be set up."

1. Complicit republiQons who have betrayed America deserve justice

Lock them up.

?1

[DBoon]

11. Joseph McCarthy's eyes show a dark, persistent evil to the very core of his being

Kevin McCarthy's eyes show a "Vacant - For Rent" look

[kimbutgar]

14. I know a woman who is related to him and she said the family was shocked he went into

Politics because he was a dumb drunk frat boy the family laughed at.

[DBoon]

17. I assume you mean Kevin

[C Moon]

39. Then that's why he went into politics for the GOP: revenge.

[Probatim]

25. He looks like he's surprised he can maintain the ins and outs of breathing

[ShazamIam]

41. I've always held a pet theory that Ted Cruz was the invitro child of Phyllis Schafly &

Joe McCarthy, but maybe it is Kevin who really fits that scenario. /s

[myohmy2]

28. I'll bet...

...they're related...

[soothsayer]

2. She's got free time now that they bounced her

She should think up more!

[pazzyanne]

23. You can count on her thinking up more!

"Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned."

[DENVERPOPS]

36. He must not know Dick is her daddy

With the connections and resources he still has, he could dig up a lot of stuff to destroy anyone who goes after his daughter.
Then daddy just turns over the info to her, and lets her wave it in his face in front of the Republic Party and public.....

[hlthe2b]

3. I don't think little Kevin has any clue how badly out of his league he is with all this...

Take him down, Liz. Works for me.

[Walleye]

4. She is the strongest woman in their caucus. And the bravest GOP rep in the House

Wasn’t very smart to pick a fight with her. All of the men in that caucus are outclassed by her

[dlk]

5. When McCarthy and his caucus went after Liz Cheney, they picked the wrong hill to die on

I predict they will be sadder but wiser before long.

[jgmiller]

31. Everytime they go after her I think of Star Wars

and Obi Wan telling Vader that if he strikes him down he will become more powerful than he realizes.

She warned them in so many ways and now she's coming for all of them.

[dlk]

33. Excellent analogy

[onetexan]

45. Yup they gave her a megaphone to yell her message much louder

That they're crooked as hell, every one of them who support the big lie.

[jalan48]

6. When will this commission start calling witnesses?

[Mr.Bill]

7. The only question is

will McCarthy ignore a subpoena, take the 5th, or lie onder oath.

[paleotn]

8. Oh, now that's an escalation.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

9. Liz is just warming up, boys.

She is going to own their asses for pledging loyalty to Trump.

McCarthy and the Republican House Caucus are in for a world of hurt.

[Paladin]

10. O HELL Yeah! (nt)

[bucolic_frolic]

12. Wow, that's a schism

Separating party patriots from party complicits

[infullview]

13. Yea! they're eating each other :)

Like sharks in the womb - who will be the strongest member to carry on....

[kimbutgar]

15. I think the GOP will regret they got rid of her

She will be their worst enemy and the media loves seeing internal fights within the parties. She will be on a lot of political news shows going forward.

[colsohlibgal]

16. Damn You Liz

You keep dong righteous things and we grudgingly approve. The enemy of our enemy.

She better have good security just like AOC, Pelosi and others.

[pazzyanne]

24. She has her dad.

Dick Cheney is someone you don't want to mess with, and Liz does not fall far from that tree.

[liberaltrucker]

29. Yep, Dick knows where the bodies are buried

and will happily dig more graves if need be.

[orangecrush]

34. Got that right.

[ananda]

18. Loud guffawing here.

Gawd, you can't make this stuff up.

[Jilly_in_VA]

19. I don't even LIKE Liz Cheney

but I approve of what she's doing, because what the rest of them are doing is infinitely worse. And I hope she learned dirty tricks at daddy's knee, because she's gonna need 'em.

[Scalded Nun]

20. She has nothing to lose and everything to gain

[Mr. Ected]

21. If we don't march the seditionists in front of Congress and grill their asses like a pork butt

They may win next time.

And then there won't be any do-overs.

[Evolve Dammit]

22. Needs to happen

[George II]

26. Good! She's not letting up. Would Politico call this "republicans in disarray"?

[myohmy2]

27. +1

...

[orleans]

30. if kevie testifies and tells the truth (under oath)

i imagine he'll end up throwing trump under the bus simply by telling the truth. and the rest of the q repukes will go after him

[oldsoftie]

32. Hell hath no fury.....or "fuck YOU" nt

[orangecrush]

35. Shit's gettin' real

Real fast.

[Warpy]

37. She is not going away meekly or quietly

This just might be her finest hour.

I honestly don't agree with her about anything else. I do applaud her courage in this.

[sheshe2]

38. Welp

Here is a Kevin photo OP supporting police... and then not.

Link to tweet

Well shit. Just looked at the photo again. Look at the respect?! He is in a jogging outfit on his break from a run to respect the men in blue.


Fucker!

40. K&R

[KPN]

42. McCarthy screwed with a Cheney. Like father like

daughter (in this case at least). This should be entertaining as well as enjoyable.

[Volaris]

43. Lol and see, all this time we thought WE were the ones haha..

Kevin is about to be Introduced to the Shiv Crew that is the Lincoln Project, courtesy of one Richard 'Dick' Cheney (aka the republican who shot a guy in the face that he was only MILDLY ANNOYED WITH).

Maul is Liz. Palps is trumpism. All of us, are Kenobi.

[BobTheSubgenius]

44. This is a classic example.

Sometimes, the enemy of your enemy is NOT your friend.

[ck4829]

46. Kick

[LudwigPastorius]

47. McCarthy's role in instigating the coup is already in the Congressional Record.

He voted against certifying the election results in Arizona and Pennsylvania, sending the implicit lie to Trump's salivating dogs that that the election was stolen.

It was only when the insurrectionists were breaking into his office that he implored Trump to call them off.
