Liz Cheney praised Milley for “standing in the breach” on January 6th at the Afghanistan hearing and then said anyone questioning his patriotism is ‘despicable’. Seriously.
Liz Cheney said:
“General milley, you found yourself in your constitutionally prescribed role standing in the breach. And for any member of this committee, for any American to question your loyalty to our nation, to question your understanding of our constitution, your loyalty to our constitution, your recognition and understanding of the civilian chain of command, is despicable. I want to apologize for those members of this committee who have done so. And i want to thank you for standing in the breach when so many, including many in this room, failed to do so.”
I don’t mean to be flippant, but Never Trumper gonna Never Trumper. That’s what I’ve come to expect from her and I’ll be damn glad when she loses next year and is out of the Congress. And you can bet CNN will be first in line to hire her.
