Liz… pound sand. You’re as corrupt as they come. WE THE PEOPLE were the guardrails, against the courts and the media and grifters like you, last night standing for our CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC ! (You learn that we aren’t a democracy in middle school by the way)

Lawyer up, @Liz_Cheney.
The evidence suggests you colluded with a key January 6th witness to commit perjury and obstruct a congressional investigation. https://t.co/F74HlkvAR3
