Cheney\u2019s office says that the staffers are wrong and that the information the Wyoming congresswoman is cutting out was rife with \u201cliberal bias.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One former committee staffer said that Cheney\u2019s changes to the report were done chiefly for political reasons. Cheney\u2019s focus on Trump is potentially coming at the cost of other committee research on law enforcement, militia groups, and financing, staffers complained.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe all came from prestigious jobs, dropping what we were doing because we were told this would be an important fact-finding investigation that would inform the public,\u201d the former staffer told WaPo. \u201cBut when [the committee] became a Cheney 2024 campaign, many of us became discouraged.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cheney spokesman Jeremy Adler said that the congresswoman is trying to protect the integrity of the committee\u2019s work by cutting out \u201cliberal bias\u201d and narrative that has infected the committee\u2019s investigative work and draft report.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDonald Trump is the first president in American history to attempt to overturn an election and prevent the peaceful transfer of power,\u201d Adler told WaPo in a statement. \u201cSo, damn right Liz is \u2018prioritizing\u2019 understanding what he did and how he did it and ensuring it never happens again.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome staff have submitted subpar material for the report that reflects long-held liberal biases about federal law enforcement, Republicans, and sociological issues outside the scope of the Select Committee\u2019s work,\u201d Adler continued. \u201cShe won\u2019t sign onto any \u2018narrative\u2019 that suggests Republicans are inherently racist or smears men and women in law enforcement, or suggests every American who believes God has blessed America is a white supremacist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>January 6 Committee spokesman Tim Mulvey sided with Cheney in a statement, saying the committee\u2019s \u201chistoric, bipartisan fact-finding effort speaks for itself, and that won\u2019t be changed by a handful of disgruntled staff who are uninformed about many parts of the committee\u2019s ongoing work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cheney lost her primary for reelection to the Trump-backed Harriet Hageman earlier this year. Hageman went on to win the election to Cheney\u2019s Wyoming congressional seat with nearly 70% of the vote. Cheney is reportedly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2022\/09\/20\/cheney-2024-election-trump-legacy-00057599\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">eyeing<\/a> a return to political office with a 2024 presidential run.<\/p>\n<p>The final report on the January 6 Committee\u2019s investigation into the riot at the U.S. Capitol is reportedly to span about 1,000 pages, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/2022\/11\/24\/cheney-trump-jan6-report-pages\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Axios<\/a>. The committee\u2019s publicized hearings, in which Trump was a major focus, took place over the course of the summer as the Republican and Democratic parties battled for control of Congress next year.
