Liz Cheney takes her message to Fox News, saying the former president is telling “lies about the election” and that his rhetoric is “dangerous.” 
Liz Cheney on Fox News: “There are too many people in the leadership of the Republican Party today who’ve been willing not only to sit by silently but to help enable that, to help embolden those claims. And that’s dangerous for the country.”
Liz Cheney says on Fox News: “We all have an obligation. And I would say Fox News — especially, especially Fox News — has a particular obligation to make sure people know the election wasn’t stolen.”
Liz Cheney uses the phrase “the big lie” on Fox News to slam Trump’s 2020 claims. Things get a bit testy when Bret Baier interrupts to point out that his show has not spread the lie or disputed Biden’s legitimacy. She persists in making her point.
Liz Cheney says she is NOT running for president.
“The danger the former president poses is too great for us to simply hope for the best,” Cheney says. “When you talk about the extent to which the big lie has taken hold, part of that is because people have just sort of said well we’re gonna ignore it and we’re gonna move on.”
