She may not have her power legitimized by elected office but that doesn't mean her or her Dad are powerless. They are both DC insiders, have a significant amount of money, wealth, connections, influence and information or access to information sources. They've held and marshalled influence not only in the US but internationally for decades. I wouldn't count either one of them out yet.

Sure she lost one primary election. What if she moves to California or Jersey for the next one? What if she changes her party? I doubt she's licking her wounds. She's probably looking for new options and opportunities.

When the pile of chicanery her and her fellow travelers starts to be really sifted through, if ever in a timely manner or for that matter not, they are all going to find the "turn about" they have set the standard for is going to be painful and those behind the curtain are going to find that though it is good concealment, once the spotlights get realigned that will change along with the illusion of cover it gave them.

Make no mistake, it is a long and bumpy road ahead of us with both fog, smoke and darkness to impede the immediate view mixed in with the random occasional calthrop and hair pin turn.
Never heard/read that word before, so I looked it up. In case I’m not the only one …

Her comments show just how “ impartial “ she is on the Jan 6 th witch-hunt….
Exactly right! She does not sound like a fact finder, but is openly admitting that she's out to stop Trump from winning again at all costs.

Of course, anyone paying attention could already see that, thus the landslide yesterday...

Saved, to glorify God.
She STILL doesn't know how to be an American citizen! It is not enough to concede you lost the election. The winner is your new leader, to whom you are obligated accept, without trying to sabotage and impair his authority.

She does not believe in democracy, she believes in I get what I want legal or not legal.

Records: Liz Cheney’s Net Worth Ballooned as Much as 600 Percent During Her Time in Office​


"Rep. Liz Cheney’s (R-WY) net worth ballooned from an estimated $7 million when she first took office in 2017 to possibly more than $44 million in 2020, according to analysis from the Center for Responsive Politics and her most recent financial disclosure forms.

Depending on where she falls in the ranges in her latest financial disclosure forms, that could represent as much as a 600 percent increase in her net worth in just a few short years in Congress–a massive boom for an already-independently wealthy political scion of the powerful Cheney family which counts among its most powerful her father, former Vice President of the United States Dick Cheney.

During Cheney’s first term in office, from 2017 to 2018, her net worth grew from the 71st ($7,036,013) to the 24th ($14,710,513) wealthiest member in the U.S. House of Representatives, the Center for Responsive Politics analysis shows.

Since then, Cheney’s net worth has continued to grow–perhaps significantly. According to her 2020 Personal Financial Disclosure former, Cheney declared her net worth was estimated between $10,422,023 and $44,140,000 stemming from assets valued between $10,432,024 and $44,155,000. Cheney reported no earned income, gifts, or transactions. Yet Cheney declared she held three posts, which include a trustee position at the University of Wyoming, a member of a holding company, and what appears to be her family’s trust.

he documents are reported in ranges, so it is unclear at this time exactly how close she falls to the top of the broader range, but even if her worth is the lower end, she still significantly increased her net worth while in office.

Cheney’s boosted net worth comes amid political controversy about how some congressional members have enriched themselves while American workers do not have the same access or connections. The median American household net worth is $121,700, NerdWallet estimated.

WASHINGTON, DC – JULY 28: Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) walks to a meeting in the office of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on Capitol Hill on Thursday, July 28, 2022 in Washington, DC.

Notably, in 2018, Cheney’s top listed assets were Citibank ($3,000,000) and Latham & Watkins ($3,000,000). Latham & Watkins is Liz Cheney’s husband’s law firm, where Philip Perry, Cheney’s husband, has been a partner since 2017. According to Cheney’s 2020 Personal Financial Disclosure, Perry has an “equity ownership” in the firm worth between $1,000,001 and $5,000,000.

Perry’s firm has advised a Chinese Communist Party-linked technology company named TME and Exelon Corporation. The State Department in 2019 dubbed TME a tool of the Chinese government. According to the Wall Street Journal, in 2011, Exelon Corporation agreed to provide consulting and training services to an arm of the state-owned China National Nuclear Corporation (CNNC). The state-owned CNNC’s president and vice president are appointed by the highest administrative position in the Government of China, the Premier of the People’s Republic of China. The CNNC supervises all facets of China’s nuclear programs.

While Perry’s law firm has serviced Chinese clients, Cheney has sat on the Armed Services Committee with many powerful subcommittees dedicated to national security. Cheney worked with House Republicans’ on producing a 2020 report on Communist China entitled the “China Task Force Report.” The report states, “[T]he greatest generational challenge we face today is the threat of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).”

Cheney’s GOP primary opponent, Trump-endorsed Harriet Hageman, has slammed Cheney and her husband for his connections to the CCP-liked companies. Hageman believes the Perry family is “personally” and “financially benefiting from working for China,” Hageman told Just the News.

Concerning Perry’s partnership at Latham & Watkins, Cheney’s spokesman Jeremy Adler previously told Breitbart News that Perry has not financially gained from the “Chinese Government” during his partnership tenure. “Harriet is telling you an outright lie. Liz’s husband, Phil Perry, receives no financial benefit at all from any Chinese Government entity,” Adler wrote in an emailed statement. “This is pure defamation, and Harriet should be accountable for it.”

Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., vice chair of the January 6 Committee, gives a speech at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum, June 29, 2022, in Simi Valley, Calif.

Breitbart News reached out to Cheney’s office to ask how she explains her net worth grown from an estimated from $7 million in 2017 to possibly more than $44 million in 2020 depending on where she falls in the reported ranges on her 2020 Personal Financial Disclosure document. Cheney’s office did not return a request for comment on this front.

Questions surrounding Cheney’s wealth come has she is trailing in the polls to opponent Harriet Hageman by about 30 points and predicted to lose the GOP primary on August 16. Cheney’s political approval is on a downward trend due to her fixation on fighting against former President Donald Trump on the partisan January 6 Committee. Fifty-four percent of voters were less likely to support Cheney’s reelection “because she’s part of the panel investigating the attack on the Capitol,” Casper Star-Tribune/Mason-Dixon found.

Cheney’s opposition to Trump has won her favor with many in the establishment uniparty. In recent weeks, Cheney has won endorsements from Hollywood elites and donations from Hillary Clinton and former President Barack Obama donors. She has also solicited votes from Democrats, though Joseph Barbuto, the chairman of the Wyoming Democrat Party, believes the tactic will not be effective.

Cheney has also received large amount of money from outside state donors looking to save Cheney from defeat. The incumbent has out-raised Hageman by nearly three to one. Yet Hageman has done very well with Wyoming voters, who have donated more than $1.2 million — more than four times as much as Wyoming voters have donated to Cheney, FEC data shows.

“Liz Cheney has lost Wyoming. Liz Cheney doesn’t live in Wyoming. She doesn’t represent us,” Hageman told Breitbart News. “She doesn’t represent our values.”

According to PredictIt odds, Cheney has only a three-cent chance on the dollar of winning. Trump-endorsed Harriet Hageman is favored by 97 cents on the dollar."

The Best Historical Analog For Liz Cheney Isn’t Lincoln. It’s Colin Kaepernick​

BY: SHAWN FLEETWOOD
AUGUST 17, 2022

"Following her humiliating defeat in Tuesday’s Wyoming primary elections, soon-to-be-former Rep. Liz Cheney gave one of the most comically narcissistic speeches by a politician in recent memory.

Despite losing to Trump-endorsed Harriet Hageman by more than 30 points, Cheney thought it was fitting not only to forecast a potential run for president in 2024 but to do so while comparing herself to former President Abraham Lincoln.

“The great and original champion of our party, Abraham Lincoln, was defeated in elections for the Senate and House before he won the most important election of all,” she said before an audience of what few supporters she has. “Lincoln ultimately prevailed. He saved our union, and he defined our obligation as Americans for all of history.”

Hardly finished with her delusional Civil War era comparisons, Cheney went on to equate her ongoing fight with former President Donald Trump to Union Gen. Ulysses S. Grant during the Battle of the Wilderness.

“As the fires of the battle still smoldered, Grant rode to the head of the column. He rode to the intersection of Brock Road and Orange Plank Road, and there, as the men of his army watched and waited,” Cheney said. “Instead of turning north back towards Washington and safety, Grant turned his horse south toward Richmond and the heart of [Confederate Gen. Robert E.] Lee’s army. Refusing to retreat, he pressed on to victory.”

Colin Kaepernick 2.0​

While Cheney’s self-indulged fantasies about becoming the country’s next Lincoln is great comedy, there is one figure throughout American history that the Wyoming representative measures up to quite well: former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick.


Much like Kaepernick, who made a Civil War era comparison of his own by relating the NFL draft process to a slave auction, Cheney has always been a washed-up nobody that was never good enough to make it in the pros. Rather than engaging in serious self-reflection as to why her popularity plummeted among the Wyomingites she swore to represent in Congress, Cheney decided to play the victim card and cast her work in the disgraceful Jan. 6 Committee as necessary for the future of the republic. From that point forward, anyone who refused to go along with her one-woman war against Trump became the enemy, while the bitter resentment intended to drive the rest of her political career completely divorced her from reality.

The same pattern of delusions can also be found in Kaepernick’s story. In the case of the disgraced former quarterback, Kaepernick has to believe that NFL teams’ refusal to hire him is all about racism because the reality — that he sucks and just isn’t good enough to make it in the pros — hurts his ego too much to be accepted.

At the end of the day, Cheney didn’t lose her job in Congress because of her integrity any more than Kaepernick lost his job because of race. The simple truth is that they both got fired for the same reasons: They were incapable of doing what they were hired to do, and everyone got tired of watching them fail over and over again."

No, the “reality” is that his Wokeness and racist rants are bad for business, and no football team wants to saddle themselves with his whiny ass.

She is the last ditch chance to keep the secrets of the Bushes and her dad.
Remember at Bush Sr's funeral, envelopes were handed to Bush, Clinton, Obama and a few others and when they opened them and read them, the look on their face's told a story. Maybe a note from Trump? He's taken down most of them. Maybe they'd all be taken down if he had been President another 4 years.

I do remember the notes. And I also note that most of those folks haven't really been heard from much. Well, Obama was just out detailing how Biden is his third term. But I don't recall the impact those notes had on, well, anything really.

I do not say this lightly, but she is unhinged. And she has the financial resources to plan and execute many things.
You are describing a die hard leftist. And based on her J6 conduct, she certainly is. One characteristic of many leftist women is they are not happy, they seldom smile or attempt to be charming. Compare this witch to Noem, Palin or many of the other notable conservative women, they often smile when talking, they often appear happy, their voices seldom have an angry tone. Even her dad made efforts to smile and show some degree of happiness.

Cheney is anything but well adjusted, her deep anger is so visible just in her eyes alone. Aside from being mentally imbalanced, Trump's term as President must have done something to upset her apple cart, she must have been making illegal cash somewhere or somehow lost power or something to be this angry. She's a female version of Mitt, only on steroids.

It's plain and simple: Liz Cheney's obsessive hatred of Donald Trump blinded her to anything and everything else. She looks at her defeat as the price to be paid for her delusional anger. She has always been about ½ bubble off, now it's just showing more than it did.
