But I think that she is a tremendous leader. I\u2019ve watched her up close. She is a leader of historic consequence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When asked later in the interview whether the country would be better off with a Republican majority, Cheney rejected the idea, preferring the same leadership that\u2019s suppressed energy production and sent inflation to new heights, among other fiascos.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople just need to understand what it will mean to have a Republican majority in the House of Representatives,\u201d Cheney said. \u201cThe people who will be running the House of Representatives in a Republican majority will give authority and power to some of the most radical members of Congress and I don\u2019t think that that\u2019s good for the country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Woodruff sought to clarify Cheney\u2019s remarks before the soon-to-be ex-lawmaker cut off the moderator. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think I\u2019ll leave it the way I said it,\u201d Cheney said. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe heard you,\u201d Woodruff responded candidly. <\/p>\n<p>Cheney was one of two Republicans in the lower chamber to be appointed by Pelosi to the speaker\u2019s committee hand-picked ostensibly to investigate the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riot, even though just a <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/07\/13\/jan-6-committee-avoids-probing-security-failures-as-hearing-finally-covers-capitol-riot\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">fraction<\/a> of the panel\u2019s time was dedicated to the actual riot. Pelosi chose Cheney to lead the committee as vice chair after the speaker took the self-proclaimed \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2021\/07\/21\/nancy-pelosi-kicks-ranking-republicans-jim-jordan-jim-banks-off-partisan-jan-6-commission\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">unprecedented<\/a>\u201d step of barring minority appointments by GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy. Illinois Rep. Adam Kinzinger, who is not running for reelection this fall, became the second Republican to join the partisan probe. <\/p>\n<p>Cheney, who was <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2021\/05\/12\/house-republicans-boot-warmonger-liz-cheney-from-party-leadership\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">overwhelmingly booted<\/a> from her No. 3 role in leadership as House GOP Conference chair last year, admonished McCarthy but refused to offer an alternative to speaker should Republicans reclaim the lower chamber.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWho would be the right leader for Republicans in the House?\u201d Woodruff asked. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI hesitate to give any names because I don\u2019t think it would help them,\u201d Cheney said. <\/p>\n<p>In fact, Republicans have fared poorly when given the Cheney stamp of approval. Out of the nine other Republicans who joined the Wyoming lawmaker in her vote to impeach President Donald Trump last year, <a href=\"https:\/\/fivethirtyeight.com\/features\/with-cheneys-loss-just-2-house-republicans-who-voted-to-impeach-trump-are-on-the-ballot-in-november\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">just two<\/a> remain on the ballot next week. The rest either lost primaries to a Trump-endorsed opponent or abandoned reelection altogether. <\/p>\n<p>Cheney <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/08\/16\/wyoming-republicans-throw-liz-cheney-out-of-congress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">lost<\/a> her primary by a wider margin than any to Trump-endorsed attorney Harriet Hageman, who carried the race by more than 37 points. Had Cheney not successfully courted Wyoming\u2019s Democrat voters, her already overwhelming loss would have likely been by <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/08\/18\/analysis-if-not-for-democrat-voters-cheneys-loss-would-have-been-even-more-devastating\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">far higher margins<\/a> in the Republican contest. <\/p>\n<p>In her Cleveland conversation with Woodruff, Cheney endorsed longtime local Democrat Congressman Tim Ryan\u2019s Senate bid against Republican venture capitalist J.D. Vance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ousted GOP Wyoming Congresswoman Liz Cheney appeared to endorse Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for another term with the speaker\u2019s gavel Tuesday, just a week before Election Day. \u201cI want to say a word about Speaker Pelosi,\u201d Cheney said at the City Club in Cleveland with PBS\u2019s Judy Woodruff. \u201cThere are many, many issues, maybe [\u2026]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":494,"featured_media":1720519,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[546],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1720516","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-federalist"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1720516","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/494"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1720516"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1720516\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1720519"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1720516"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1720516"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1720516"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
