CHENEY in WaPo op-ed: The GOP "is at a turning point, and Republicans must decide whether we are going to choose truth and fidelity to the Constitution" washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/…
Cheney: "The question before us now is whether we will join Trump’s crusade to delegitimize and undo the legal outcome of the 2020 election ... I have worked overseas in nations where changes in leadership come only with violence"
CHENEY calls out McCARTHY: On the House floor on Jan. 13, "McCarthy said: 'The president bears responsibility for Wednesday’s attack on Congress by mob rioters. He should have immediately denounced the mob when he saw what was unfolding.'
"Now, McCarthy has changed his story."
"Now, McCarthy has changed his story."
Cheney: "We Republicans need to stand for genuinely conservative principles, and steer away from the dangerous and anti-democratic Trump cult of personality."
Cheney: "History is watching. Our children are watching. We must be brave enough to defend the basic principles that underpin and protect our freedom and our democratic process."

"The Black Lives Matter and antifa violence of last summer was illegal and reprehensible, but it is a different problem with a different solution."

“Friend,
I was recently in Mar-a-Lago with President Trump.”
