What would possess Liz Cheney, a Republican from a notable Republican family in Wyoming, the second most conservative state in the union, to present manipulated evidence regarding a recorded event where the distortions can be easily proven?

Part of the answer lies in her father, Dick Cheney, who came from big oil to serve as establishment President George W. Bush’s Vice President.

I was surprised to find Cheney speaking at the conservative Reagan Museum in Simi Valley, California, on June 29, 2022. Especially as part of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation & Institute’s A Time for Choosing Speaker Series, which is billed as a forum for leading voices in the conservative movement to address critical questions facing the future of the Republican Party. Through formal speeches delivered at the Reagan Library in Simi Valley, California, speakers specifically address fundamental questions, such as “Why are you a Republican?” “What should the Republican Party stand for?” and “What are the Republican philosophies we can all agree on?”

But then I remembered that the Reagan Museum is controlled by the Reagan Foundation, headed by an establishment Republican. Although Fred Ryan served as Chief of Staff to Ronald Reagan from 1989 until 1995, he is also the Publisher and CEO of Jeff Bezos’ corrupt publication, The Washington Post, and the co-founder of the left-leaning Politico, where he served as President and CEO.

Cheney is definitely a RINO (Republican In Name Only) turncoat, once reviled by the Democrats and now feted as a “truth-teller” ,,,

Some of the most striking revelations during the prime-time hearing from the House January 6 committee were delivered by the top Republican on the panel, Liz Cheney. She also delivered an ominous message to her party.

CHENEY: Tonight, I say this to my Republican colleagues who are defending the indefensible - there will come a day when Donald Trump is gone, but your dishonor will remain.

CHENEY: I am a conservative Republican, and the most conservative of conservative principles is reverence for the rule of law.

CHENEY: When I know something is wrong, I will say so. I won't waiver or back down. I won't surrender to pressure or intimidation.  <Source>

This is said as she participates in an illegally-constituted committee, using illegal subpoenas, and presenting doctored, out-of-context” evidence obtained by a process that violated due process.

Bottom line...

It appears that the Democrats and the RINO cohorts are destroying our institutions one by one.  I will think twice about supporting the Reagan complex in nearby Simi Valley, California.

We are so screwed.
