Rep. Liz Cheney, the vice chair of the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 assault on the Capitol, indicated Sunday that the panel has not closed the door to fmr. Pres. Trump testifying on live television.

"The committee treats this matter with great seriousness, and we are going to proceed in terms of the questioning of the former president under oath," Cheney said."It may take multiple days, and it will be done with a level of rigor and discipline and seriousness that it deserves."Rep. Liz Cheney , Vice Chairwoman of the Select Committee to Investigate the Jan. 6 Attack on the U.S. Capitol, delivers remarks during a hearing of the committee on Oct. 13, 2022 in Washington, DC.

In addition to requesting a range of documents from the former president — communications, photos, records of phone calls and memoranda from the weeks leading up to Jan. 6 — the committee commanded Trump to answer questions under oath either in-person at the Capitol or by videoconference. It's unclear whether Trump will comply with the subpoena or challenge it in court, but Cheney said the committee has several options if the former president decides not to cooperate and asks the courts to intervene.

The Jan. 6 committee won’t take live TV testimony from Trump, Cheney saysThe House committee investigating the Capitol riot indicated Sunday it would not consider letting Donald Trump testify live on television about the direct role that congressional investigators say he played in trying to overturn the 2020 election. When it comes to transparency, Democrats don't want any of it. Although, that WOULD be a good way to get him to lie under oath....1,223 times.....if he thinks he has a national audience Would get Super Bowl ratings though

Liz Cheney: ‘Stunning’ That Kevin McCarthy Is Making Himself Leader of GOP’s ‘Pro-Putin Wing’“At every moment since, frankly, the aftermath of the election in 2020, when Minority Leader McCarthy has had the opportunity to do the right thing or do something that serves his own political purpose, he always chooses to serve his own political purpose.” She's awful but in this she's 100% right Isn't that literally every politician? It’s unconscionable that people would work in their own self-interest. Wait, what?

Liz Cheney predicts rise of ‘new conservative party,’ says Republicans ‘more dangerous’ than DemsRep. Liz Cheney said Sunday that a 'new conservative party' is on the horizon if former President Donald Trump becomes the Republican presidential nominee in 2024. Sadly liz cheney is a bitter, demented old lady who supports her father’s fabrication about Iraqi WMDs. LMFAO! Her opinion is being put to the test as we speak and I think I see the verdict ... A red wave.
