Ms. Cheney, who is facing a vote Wednesday morning that is almost certain to succeed in ousting her from House Republicans’ No. 3 post, declared on Tuesday night that the nation was facing a “never seen before” threat in a former president who provoked the Jan. 6 attack and who “has resumed his aggressive effort to convince Americans that the election was stolen from him.” |
“Remaining silent and ignoring the lie emboldens the liar,” Ms. Cheney said. “I will not participate in that. I will not sit back and watch in silence, while others lead our party down a path that abandons the rule of law and joins the former president’s crusade to undermine our democracy.”
