I am grateful that Rep. Liz Cheney lived up to her oath. She also voted regularly to kill Democratic proposals and promote tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans. She is a "profile in courage" for standing firm as her political party abandoned her, but she is no hero.

Liz is a mixed bag. She is her father’s daughter for sure but it’s possible all this, plus her exile, may have given her a new perspective on life as a far right humper. Im going to read her book(thanks Jeff for the link)and see if a different light shines from her eyes. If it’s still red, then she’s still a republican, just not a trumper.

She did say she gained a lot of respect for Pelosi when she agreed to put her on the J6 committee. Look, she was vice chair with Bennie Thompson serving as chair. I would not doubt that her eyes were opened wide. Yes, she’s her corrupt father’s daughter, and yes, she’s had some hardline issues that I have never agreed with, but I too, will not be purchasing her book. i am certain it will be a best seller, just without my money.
