OPINION:
Rep. Liz Cheney is a hypocrite. She continues to demean and punish former President Donald Trump. The Jan. 6 “hearings” leadership knows these facts to be true but chooses to hide them from the public.
Several days before the scheduled Jan. 6 speech, Mr. Trump met with several individuals who later confirmed that Trump authorized up to 20,000 National Guard personnel be present on that day. Those individuals confirmed this publicly and when they testified at the hearings.
Why would Mr. Trump want to overthrow our government? His intentions were to prevent any violence or destruction. It is also known that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi rejected Mr. Trump’s request.
The biased Democrats and Ms. Cheney continue their attacks on Mr. Trump, but these facts should end another falsehood about him.
