Republican former Rep. Liz Cheney said she believes a GOP majority in the House in 2025 would present a “threat” to the country.

“I believe very strongly in those principles and ideals that have defined the Republican Party, but the Republican Party of today has made a choice and they haven’t chosen the Constitution. And so I do think it presents a threat if the Republicans are in the majority in January 2025,” Cheney said in an interview that aired on “CBS Sunday Morning.”

Cheney, who represented Wyoming in Congress from 2017 to 2023, said current House Speaker Mike Johnson was “absolutely” a collaborator in the effort to overthrow the 2020 election and he should not be speaker in 2025.

      I don’t agree with your assessment of Kissinger. I believe that is what he wanted you to believe about him.

      He broke the peace process in Vietnam just so he could get a job with Nixon and Nixon broke it so he could get a win from LBJ.

      All the politicians are in it for their own personal gain. They use the aesthetic of whatever of whatever ideology has the most support in their local area.
