Liz Cheney
The House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol insurrection voted unanimously to subpoena Donald Trump to give testimony about the role he played in fomenting the unrest.
The Wyoming lawmaker highlighted the dangers posed by the election-denying Republican candidates for Arizona governor and secretary of state.
Donald Trump's comments about Chao and Mitch McConnell "could well cause violence," the Wyoming Republican warned.
Cheney also weighed in on the possibilities of her own presidential run in 2024.
WHAT'S HAPPENING
Outgoing Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney (R) revealed that many in her own party hold their nose and support Trump, for fear of getting punished at the ballot box.
The Wyoming lawmaker has been one of the few Republicans to openly criticize the former president.
"He thinks he’s so smart no one can see through him. Ted, we can. All of us can," the GOP congresswoman said.
“I will welcome the opportunity to come and explain to them exactly what we found and the threat that Donald Trump poses,” the Wyoming Republican said.
Both GOP senators "took steps that fundamentally threatened the constitutional order and structure in the aftermath of the last election," she said of their 2020 denial.
Despite its censure of Cheney for investigating Trump earlier this year, there’s little the party could do if she decides to run for president as a Republican.
