Evidence Against J6 Committee

The past week has proven to be exceptionally challenging for ex-Representative Liz Cheney (R-WY) as she continues to fixate on the events of January 6th. Her narrative appears to be unraveling, particularly as she attempted to conceal evidence pertaining to the security arrangements of former and possibly future President Donald Trump for that fateful day.

Representative Barry Loudermilk (R-GA), chairing the Subcommittee on Oversight within the Committee on House Administration, also disclosed a report conducted by his committee on “the politicization of the January 6th Select Committee.”

Several pivotal discoveries revolved around the so-called “star witness,” Cassidy Hutchinson, whose testimony underwent significant changes. Furthermore, her statements were directly challenged by U.S. Secret Service agents, casting doubts on her credibility. Despite these discrepancies, the Select Committee maintained its trust in her testimony.

Additionally, the report shed light on the involvement of embattled Fulton County DA Fani Willis, who sought to engage with the Select Committee. As Mia has diligently reported, Willis encounters challenges in her legal battle against Trump, particularly with Judge Scott McAfee recently dismissing certain charges against him.

“The American people deserve the entire truth about Jan. 6,” Loudermilk posted, though it doesn’t appear as if Liz Cheney, who served as the vice chair of that dismantled Select Committee, would agree. Rather, she has a narrative to uphold, as evidenced by her onslaught of fiery posts.

Cheney’s most recent post, from Tuesday morning, which she herself also reposted, comes with a particularly nasty and steep charge about not being on America’s side. 

“If your response to Trump’s assault on our democracy is to lie & cover up what he did, attack the brave men & women who came forward with the truth, and defend the criminals who violently assaulted the Capitol, you need to rethink whose side you’re on. Hint: It’s not America’s,” her post read as she ironically brought up “truth.”

There’s already been close to 15,000 replies and close to 1,000 quoted replies of people having had enough of her talking points. 

Although the referenced post refrains from singling out Loudermilk or any other individuals, former congresswoman’s social media activity did directly target conservatives such as Mark Levin and Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT).

For those anticipating Cheney’s departure from the political scene, the reality may disappoint, even if she appears oblivious to the dwindling extent of her influence within the Republican Party. Her narratives have faced widespread debunking, and it’s worth recalling her substantial defeat in the August 2022 primary to now-Representative Harriet Hageman, with a margin of almost 40 points. Additionally, in May 2021, she was replaced as the House Republican Conference chairwoman by Representative Elise Stefanik (R-NY), a position Stefanik continues to hold.

Despite this, Trump recently secured the nomination following his victory in the Washington state primary on Tuesday night, which suggests that Cheney’s vocal opposition to him as a perceived threat to democracy will likely persist, potentially intensifying.

Cheney has subtly hinted at the possibility of a presidential run, albeit under the condition that it doesn’t benefit Trump—a question that has lingered since well before her primary defeat. On Wednesday morning, The Hill released an article spotlighting Cheney’s actions, particularly regarding speculation about her future endeavors, including whether she might endorse President Joe Biden for re-election.

It appears highly improbable that Cheney would extend her support to Trump, contrary to some lingering hopes among certain individuals. Her March 6 post, which remains pinned on her X account, unequivocally expresses her determination to prevent Donald Trump from returning to the Oval Office.

She urged people to back her organization, The Great Task, coincidentally timed with the withdrawal of former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley from the Republican presidential race.
