Former President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Donald Trump</a> said on Sunday that former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) and other members of the now-defunct <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/january-6-committee" target="_blank" rel="noopener">January 6 Committee</a> should be jailed.
A House GOP report released last week said Trump&#8217;s driver on January 6, 2021, &#8220;refuted&#8221; a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/testimony-of-cassidy-hutchinson-appears-to-fall-apart-as-new-reports-surface-about-secret-service" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claim</a> relayed by former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson that Trump attempted to grab the steering wheel to redirect the SUV to the U.S. Capitol following his speech, and lunged at his head of security.
Just the News CEO and Editor in Chief John Solomon highlighted on Trump&#8217;s Truth Social platform the particular finding that Cheney, who served as vice chairwoman of the January 6 Committee, <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@jsolomonreports/posts/112079019142185501" target="_blank" rel="noopener">personally took part</a> in an interview with the driver and did not include that denial in the panel&#8217;s final report.
&#8220;She should go to Jail along with the rest of the Unselect Committee!&#8221; Trump <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/112111518330244944" target="_blank" rel="noopener">exclaimed</a> in a post to Truth Social. He went on to share links to several articles concerning the revelations from the House Administration&#8217;s Subcommittee on Oversight, led by Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA).
Cheney, who has <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/liz-cheney-suggests-she-may-enter-2024-presidential-race" target="_blank" rel="noopener">indicated</a> in recent months that she is open to entering the 2024 presidential race to ensure Trump does not win the contest, responded to Trump on X with a screenshot of his post to Truth Social and references to the 2020 election interference cases he faces.

Trump is facing four criminal cases, including two focused on the January 6 Capitol breach and the 2020 election, as well as civil litigation. He has broadly denied any wrongdoing and argued that politically motivated prosecutors are conducting a “witch hunt” against him.
Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS), who served as chairman of the January 6 Committee, also pushed back on the findings in the House GOP&#8217;s report.
&#8220;The Select Committee&#8217;s final report took into account the testimony of all witnesses,&#8221; he said in a <a href="https://twitter.com/BennieGThompson/status/1767300191843983406" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a>, adding the claim that all the evidence points to &#8220;the same conclusion: Donald Trump wanted to join his violent mob as it marched on the Capitol, and he was irate when his security detail told him he couldn&#8217;t go.&#8221;

Kash Patel, a top official in Trump&#8217;s administration, called for &#8220;some serious congressional action&#8221; when pressed on Cheney during an interview on Fox News.
&#8220;Somebody should be subpoenaing her tomorrow to ask her what other information of innocence she withheld, because this was, singularly, the insurrection exoneration of Donald Trump, and Liz Cheney put it in her nuclear football and tried to bury it,&#8221; he told &#8220;Sunday Morning Futures&#8221; anchor Maria Bartiromo.

Former Rep. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/liz-cheney" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Liz Cheney</a> (R-WY) suggested during an interview over the weekend that she may still enter the 2024 presidential election, even though the process is already well underway.
Cheney made the remarks during a Sunday CNN interview with Jake Tapper on &#8220;State of the Union&#8221; while discussing the state of the election.
&#8220;I haven&#8217;t endorsed anybody in this presidential race, certainly would never support Donald Trump,&#8221; she said. &#8220;And we know what Donald Trump will do, because he&#8217;s telling us every day. And anybody who has spent any time overseas, who has spent any time studying the history of autocracies and of autocrats knows we have to listen to what Donald Trump&#8217;s saying.&#8221;
Tapper responded by asking: &#8220;Are you still considering it, or would you rule it out?&#8221;
&#8220;I haven&#8217;t made any decisions about it yet,&#8221; Cheney responded. &#8220;I&#8217;m going to do whatever is necessary to defeat Donald Trump.&#8221;
Tapper asked if Cheney would endorse Biden over Trump.

&#8220;I&#8217;m not going to make any announcements or endorsements this morning,&#8221; Cheney responded. &#8220;But the most important thing is to defeat Donald Trump, and I will do whatever, whatever it takes to do that.&#8221;
Cheney said that it&#8217;s not &#8220;a hard call at all&#8221; to say that she supports former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley over Trump in the Republican Party primary.

Liz Cheney Suggests She May Enter 2024 Presidential Race

Elections

Joe Biden

Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) hinted that she might be ready to cast a 2024 ballot to re-elect Democratic President Joe Biden, although she stopped short of giving the incumbent her full endorsement.
Cheney argued during an appearance on ABC&#8217;s &#8220;The View&#8221; that re-electing Biden would pose less of a threat to the United States than re-electing former Republican President Donald Trump.

Regular cohost Joy Behar put the question to Cheney directly, asking, &#8220;Let me ask you a radical question, because I know you&#8217;re a patriotic American and you will vote: if it came down to Biden v. Trump, would you vote for Biden?&#8221;
&#8220;I&#8217;m not going to endorse anybody today,&#8221; Cheney replied, adding, &#8220;And I think that, again, we don&#8217;t know exactly what the choice will be. I would say that I will never vote for Donald Trump.&#8221;
The audience cheered as Cheney continued: &#8220;There are some conservatives who are trying to make this claim that somehow Biden is a bigger risk than Trump. My view is – I disagree with a lot of Joe Biden&#8217;s policies. We can survive bad policies. We cannot survive torching the Constitution, it&#8217;s not even the same level.&#8221;
The former congresswoman, who was <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-liz-cheney-destroyed-in-wyoming-gop-primary-trump-responds" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ousted in the 2022 primary</a> by new GOP Rep.

&#8220;No, I&#8217;m not,&#8221; Cheney said after being asked by anchor Jake Tapper in an interview on CNN&#8217;s &#8220;State of the Union.&#8221;

&#8220;We&#8217;re going to see what happens. We&#8217;re going to see how things unfold,&#8221; Cheney said.
Cheney, daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, called Trump a &#8220;threat&#8221; and said she would &#8220;imagine that there will be a number of other candidates in the race.&#8221;
She also said Biden is more effective on the international stage than Trump, but Cheney conceded that she thought Biden&#8217;s withdrawal of U.S. forces from Afghanistan was &#8220;probably the biggest mistake that we made post-9/11.&#8221;
Trump is running a 2024 campaign for a second term in the White House and has <a href="https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2024/president/us/2024_republican_presidential_nomination-7548.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">dominated</a> Republican presidential nomination polls in a field with several other candidates. If he prevails in the primary contest, Trump is poised to have a 2020 rematch against Biden.
Cheney <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-liz-cheney-destroyed-in-wyoming-gop-primary-trump-responds" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lost</a> her primary last year to now-Rep. Harriet Hageman, who was endorsed by Trump, after establishing herself as a top foe of the &#8220;MAGA&#8221; movement and serving as vice chairwoman of the January 6 Committee.

The former lawmaker said she is &#8220;definitely&#8221; going to spend next year helping to elect &#8220;serious&#8221; and &#8220;sane&#8221; people in both major parties to Congress.
&#8220;We have got to elect people who believe in the Constitution and who take their responsibility seriously to Congress,&#8221; Cheney said.
Cheney was once the third-ranking Republican in the House, but acknowledged that she does not carry so much sway in the current GOP conference. On the topic of the GOP-led House finding a new speaker, Cheney demurred.
&#8220;I hesitate to endorse anybody because I think that won&#8217;t be helpful for them,&#8221; Cheney said.
After leaving Congress, Cheney <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/liz-cheney-lands-on-her-feet-with-gig-at-university-of-virginia">landed</a> a position as a professor of politics at the University of Virginia earlier this year and has been working on a <a href="https://www.axios.com/2023/09/20/liz-cheney-book-cover-new" target="_blank" rel="noopener">book</a> that is due out in December.
Cheney told Tapper the book would offer a &#8220;cautionary tale&#8221; on how the Republican conference embraced Trump.

Liz Cheney Won’t Rule Out A Presidential Run

Jake Tapper

ABC News producer and reporter Ben Siegel walked back his claim that former Rep. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/liz-cheney" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Liz Cheney</a> worked behind the scenes, courting Democrats to assist in removing House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) from his position.
In an X post, Siegel explained that a call to &#8220;get rid of&#8221; Speaker McCarthy — which he had attributed to Cheney — had actually come from impeachment attorney-turned-Congressman Dan Goldman (D-NY).
&#8220;Clarifying some earlier reporting, per Dem members &#8211; &gt; Goldman said Cheney reached out to him after a TV hit to agree w/ his sentiments that McCarthy — and Trump — threatened democracy. Goldman said, &#8216;Let’s get rid of [McCarthy],&#8217; speaking for himself, not Cheney.&#8221;

Many students turned their backs to Cheney during her speech and others booed, while she also received some signs of support from the audience. According to the Cowboy State Daily, <a href="https://cowboystatedaily.com/2023/05/30/colorado-college-grads-turn-backs-to-alumnus-liz-cheney-during-commencement-address/#:~:text=About%20half%20of%20Colorado%20College's,Class%20of%202023%20on%20Sunday." target="_blank" rel="noopener">roughly half</a> of the graduates turned their backs to Cheney during her speech.
“It’s an honor to be here with most of you to celebrate this tremendous accomplishment,” she said during her speech, which also took aim at former President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Donald Trump</a>.
“After the 2020 election, and the attack of Jan. 6, my fellow Republicans wanted me to lie,” Cheney said. “They wanted me to say that the 2020 election was stolen, that the attack of Jan. 6 wasn’t a big deal, and that Donald Trump wasn’t dangerous.”
“I had to choose between lying and losing my position in House leadership,” she added.
Colorado College is a private liberal arts college in Colorado Springs and has a student body of over 2,000 students. The school’s president, Leah Song Richardson, <a href="https://gazette.com/news/education/colorado-college-alum-liz-cheney-delivers-commencement-speech-graduates-turn-chairs-away-from-stage-in/article_32e7fc22-fd89-11ed-92a8-f7214a714b08.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told students</a> to “welcome different perspectives” in the leadup to Cheney’s speech.
“The liberal arts education that you received here, both inside the classroom and outside, has taught you how to think,” she said. “It’s taught you how to think critically, to welcome different perspectives, to see and understand different viewpoints, to challenge and debate each other and the ideas with which you may disagree.”

Cheney, who became well-known for her feud with Trump while serving on the Democrat-run <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/january-6-committee" target="_blank" rel="noopener">January 6 committee</a>, was booted from Congress after she lost a primary race to current Rep.

One student complained to the Cowboy State Daily that Cheney was too conservative. “She stood up to Trump, and that was commendable,” one student said. “But that doesn’t change her voting record or her stance on what I consider to be basic human rights.”
During her speech, Cheney also took shots at men, saying that more women should be in politics.
“This country needs more of you [women] in office,” she said. “You may have noticed that men are pretty much running things these days, and it’s not going all that well. You can change that.”
In the lead-up to the 2022 midterm elections, Cheney campaigned for a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/first-time-im-campaigning-for-a-democrat-liz-cheney-hits-the-trail-in-michigan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Democratic candidate in Michigan</a> and opposed Republican Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake.

Former Congresswoman <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/liz-cheney" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Liz Cheney</a> has landed on her feet with a new job as a professor of politics at the University of Virginia.
The UVA Center for Politics announced the hire Wednesday. Cheney will become a professor of practice at the school and participate in both seminars and research. Cheney was one of the ten Republicans who voted to impeach former President Donald Trump in 2021. She was primaried out of her seat in the 2022 midterms.
“Preserving our constitutional republic is the most important work of our time, and our nation’s young people will play a crucial role in this effort,” Cheney said in the university&#8217;s <a href="https://news.virginia.edu/content/liz-cheney-serve-professor-practice-uva-center-politics" target="_blank" rel="noopener">news release</a>. “I look forward to working with students and colleagues at the center to advance the important work they and others at the University of Virginia are doing to improve the health of democracy here and around the world. I hope my work with the Center for Politics and the broader community at the University of Virginia will contribute to finding lasting solutions that not only preserve, but strengthen our democracy.&#8221;
As a professor, Cheney will give University-wide lectures, and serve as a guest lecturer in seminars with Center for Politics director Larry J. Sabato and other faculty. She will also contribute to the center&#8217;s research, and participate in university and community events. She will retain her position through the end of the fall 2023 semester, with an option to renew.
“With democracy under fire in this country and elsewhere around the world, Liz Cheney serves as a model of political courage and leadership,” Sabato added in the news release. “Liz will send a compelling message to students about integrity. She’s a true profile in courage, and she was willing to pay the price for her principles and democracy itself.”
“Our students will have an incredible opportunity to learn from Liz Cheney, who has fiercely defended democracy as part of a distinguished career,&#8221; University of Virginia President Jim Ryan added. &#8220;I’m delighted that she has chosen the University of Virginia and the Center for Politics as a next step, and I very much look forward to working with her.&#8221;
Cheney was one of the ten Republicans who voted to impeach former President Trump. That vote, along with repeated criticisms of her own party, cost Cheney her position as the House Republican Conference Chair. After that, she was nominated to the January 6th Committee. Cheney lost her seat in the 2022 Republican primary to a Trump-backed challenger, natural resources lawyer <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-liz-cheney-destroyed-in-wyoming-gop-primary-trump-responds" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harriet Hageman</a>, in a 66%-29% blowout. Hageman went on to win the general election.
Cheney has already had some experience as a lecturer. In October, she gave a series of lectures at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWZ8PI7eEYg" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Syracuse University</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-Cs82o9WOk" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harvard University</a>, and the <a href="https://constudies.nd.edu/events-news/events/2022/10/14/congresswoman-liz-cheney-saving-democracy-by-revering-the-constitution/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of Notre Dame</a>.

Time Magazine announced on Monday that finalists had been selected for its 2022 Person of the Year, including Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), outgoing Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY), and Twitter CEO Elon Musk.
Other finalists listed in the <a href="https://www.today.com/news/time-2022-person-of-the-year-shortlist-rcna60072" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announcement</a> — revealed by the &#8220;TODAY&#8221; show on Monday — included Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, Chinese President Xi Jinping, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. The winner will be revealed on &#8220;TODAY&#8221; during Wednesday&#8217;s broadcast.
DeSantis was re-elected as Florida&#8217;s governor in November and has been widely speculated to be a GOP alternative to former President Donald Trump in the 2024 election. The governor became well-known for his attacks against COVID pandemic restrictions and his criticisms of the Biden administration.
The Daily Wire previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/desantis-holds-massive-lead-over-trump-in-2024-matchup-poll-shows" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a> that DeSantis holds a 20-point lead over Trump for the Republican Party’s 2024 presidential primary, according to a new poll from Marquette University Law School.
<a class="c-link" tabindex="-1" href="https://get.dailywire.com/subscribe/plus?utm_campaign=dwplus&amp;utm_medium=editorial&amp;utm_source=dwsite&amp;cid=dwplus&amp;mid=z&amp;xid=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://get.dailywire.com/subscribe/plus?utm_campaign=dwplus&amp;utm_medium=editorial&amp;utm_source=dwsite&amp;cid=dwplus&amp;mid=z&amp;xid=0" data-sk="tooltip_parent" data-remove-tab-index="true" aria-describedby="sk-tooltip-15826">TIRED OF THE LEGACY MEDIA&#8217;S BIAS CONTROLLING THE NARRATIVE AND OBSCURING THE TRUTH? JOIN US AND SAVE 30%.</a>
The poll found that DeSantis has gained ground on President Joe Biden, moving from being down nine points at the start of 2022 to being tied with the president now, 42-42. Trump trails Biden by 10 points, a gap that grew by two points since the start of 2022.
Cheney&#8217;s notoriety has increased in mainstream media over her opposition to Trump and involvement in the House committee to investigate the events of January 6, 2021. Despite her acclaim among some of those on the Left, Cheney was soundly defeated during her party&#8217;s August primary by Harriet Hageman. Hageman would go on to win Wyoming&#8217;s only House seat in November.
The congresswoman later chose to endorse multiple Democrats in the days ahead of the midterm elections. Some rumors have also swirled regarding Cheney announcing a future <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/liz-cheney-says-shes-thinking-about-presidential-run-after-gop-primary-loss" target="_blank" rel="noopener">presidential run</a> in 2024.
“I will be doing whatever it takes to keep Donald Trump out of the Oval Office,” Cheney said about a potential run.

The Tesla and SpaceX leader added Twitter to his resume this year in a $44 billion deal to recreate the Big Tech giant as a free speech platform.
His leadership has not been without controversy. Musk laid off about half of the company&#8217;s workers shortly after his purchase.
In addition, Musk&#8217;s recent launch of the &#8220;Twitter Files&#8221; revealed the company&#8217;s role in suppressing Hunter Biden&#8217;s laptop prior to the 2020 presidential election. He has promised to release additional &#8220;files&#8221; that further point out past company censorship.
Among other finalists, Zelensky was nominated for his leadership following an <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/united-nations-call-on-russia-to-pay-ukraine-war-reparations" target="_blank" rel="noopener">invasion</a> of Ukraine by Russia in February. Despite being under-resourced and outnumbered, his nation has continued to push back the Kremlin&#8217;s attacks and garner world support to defend itself.

GOP Rep. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/liz-cheney" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Liz Cheney</a> has drawn the ire of House <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/january-6-committee" target="_blank" rel="noopener">January 6 Committee</a> staffers over her influence on the final committee report expected out next month.
At least fifteen current and former members of the committee believe Cheney is manipulating the final report to place too much focus on former President Donald Trump while leaving other important information out, according to <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/11/23/liz-cheney-jan-6-committee/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Washington Post</a>. Cheney’s office says that the staffers are wrong and that the information the Wyoming congresswoman is cutting out was rife with “liberal bias.”
One former committee staffer said that Cheney’s changes to the report were done chiefly for political reasons. Cheney’s focus on Trump is potentially coming at the cost of other committee research on law enforcement, militia groups, and financing, staffers complained.
“We 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,” the former staffer told WaPo. “But when [the committee] became a Cheney 2024 campaign, many of us became discouraged.”
Cheney spokesman Jeremy Adler said that the congresswoman is trying to protect the integrity of the committee’s work by cutting out “liberal bias” and narrative that has infected the committee’s investigative work and draft report.
“Donald Trump is the first president in American history to attempt to overturn an election and prevent the peaceful transfer of power,” Adler told WaPo in a statement. “So, damn right Liz is ‘prioritizing’ understanding what he did and how he did it and ensuring it never happens again.”
“Some 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’s work,” Adler continued. “She won’t sign onto any ‘narrative’ 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.”
January 6 Committee spokesman Tim Mulvey sided with Cheney in a statement, saying the committee’s “historic, bipartisan fact-finding effort speaks for itself, and that won’t be changed by a handful of disgruntled staff who are uninformed about many parts of the committee’s ongoing work.”
Cheney lost her primary for reelection to the Trump-backed Harriet Hageman earlier this year. Hageman went on to win the election to Cheney’s 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.
The final report on the January 6 Committee’s 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’s 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. Trump has <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2022/oct/14/trump-trashes-house-jan-6-committee-witch-hunt-14-/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">criticized</a> the committee’s investigation into him as a politically-driven “witch hunt of the highest level.”

Republican House candidate Harriet Hageman rolled to a decisive victory in Wyoming Tuesday night, replacing outgoing GOP Rep. Liz Cheney.
Decision Desk HQ and other outlets projected Hageman as the winner at approximately 11 p.m. Eastern Time Tuesday.
&#8220;Thank you, Wyoming. I am honored to represent you and I will always put Wyoming first,&#8221; she tweeted.

The Wyoming attorney earned 69.99% of the state&#8217;s votes with an estimated 91% of the votes in, <a href="https://results.decisiondeskhq.com/national/2022-house">according to</a> Decision Desk. Democrat Lynnette GreyBull held 24.67% of the vote.
Wyoming&#8217;s two GOP senators celebrated Hageman&#8217;s win in a joint <a href="https://www.barrasso.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/news-releases?ID=A04E9899-8590-49DE-8696-FCBB8F3CF18F">statement</a>.
&#8220;Congratulations to Harriet Hageman on her decisive victory tonight,&#8221; Sen. John Barrasso said. &#8220;I look forward to working side by side with Harriet along with Senator Lummis for Wyoming. Together, we will be a reliable, conservative and effective team. We will focus on issues that matter most to the people of Wyoming: unleashing American energy, fighting inflation, securing our border and cutting wasteful Washington spending.&#8221;
Sen. Cynthia Lummis also heralded Hageman&#8217;s victory.
&#8220;Harriet Hageman has spent a lifetime defending Wyoming’s natural resources while championing our people, businesses and rural way of life, and I am pleased she will be taking this experience and commitment to Wyoming to Congress,&#8221; Lummis said. &#8220;She is the conservative fighter our state needs in the U.S. House of Representatives and will be an excellent teammate for Senator Barrasso and I in Washington.&#8221;
Hageman previously ran for governor in 2018, losing to GOP Gov. Mark Gordon in the primary. She returned for a shot at the state&#8217;s only House seat with the backing of multiple Republican leaders, including an endorsement from former President Donald Trump, who sought to see Cheney&#8217;s time in Congress end.
Cheney voted to impeach Trump following the events of January 6, 2021. She has also served as one of only two Republicans on the House committee to investigate January 6.
The Wyoming congresswoman was later censured by her own state&#8217;s Republican Party, which backed Hageman in the August primary. Hageman went on to defeat Cheney.
Cheney later chose to endorse multiple Democrats in the days ahead of the midterm elections.
The congresswoman expressed her public endorsement of Michigan Democratic Rep. Elissa Slotkin in her re-election campaign against a Republican opponent just days ahead of the midterm elections. She also said she would not vote for Republican Senate candidate J.D. Vance if she lived in Ohio.
Cheney’s political action group, The Great Task, also <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/liz-cheney-backs-another-democrat-says-she-would-not-vote-for-ohios-j-d-vance-over-tim-ryan">announced</a> plans to spend $500,000 on airtime to urge Arizona voters to oppose GOP gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake and Secretary of State candidate Mark Finchem.

2022 Election

2022 Midterms

A campaign stump from Rep. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/liz-cheney" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Liz Cheney</a> (R-WY) appears to have had no positive effect for a vulnerable House <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/democratic-party" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Democrat</a> in <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/michigan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Michigan</a>.
A survey conducted Wednesday of 402 likely voters in Michigan’s 7th Congressional District showed Rep. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) in a dead heat with Republican challenger Tom Barrett. The new poll from <a href="https://mirs-uploads.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/4605-Mitchell%20-%20MIRS%20Press%20Release%20CD%207%20Poll%2011-3-22_.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mitchell Research/MIRS</a> suggests a huge drop in support for Slotkin in recent weeks.
“We conducted a small sample survey (N=283) in the 7th Congressional District three weeks ago that showed Slotkin leading by 11 percent (53%-42%). However, as we are seeing nationwide and within Michigan, there seems to be a late last minute surge to Republican candidates,” Steve Mitchell, president of Mitchell Research, said in a <a href="https://mirs-uploads.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/4605-Mitchell%20-%20MIRS%20Press%20Release%20CD%207%20Poll%2011-3-22_.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">statement</a>.
Slotkin <a href="https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2022/house/mi/michigan_7th_district_barrett_vs_slotkin-7902.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">led</a> by as many as 18 points, according to a September poll, before her lead was cut to six points in a poll conducted a month later; Cook Political Report has <a href="https://www.cookpolitical.com/ratings/house-race-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noopener">rated</a> the race a toss up. Michigan will be a closely-watched state on Tuesday as Republicans look to flip multiple House seats and vote first-term Democratic Governor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/whitmer-says-small-businesses-have-her-support-these-small-business-owners-havent-forgotten-her-shutdowns/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gretchen Whitmer</a> out of office. The Mitchell Research poll also showed the Republican gubernatorial candidate Tudor Dixon slightly leading Whitmer among voters in the 7th district.
The most recent survey of the House race was conducted the day after Cheney <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/first-time-im-campaigning-for-a-democrat-liz-cheney-hits-the-trail-in-michigan/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">traveled</a> to the Great Lakes State to speak at a campaign event in support of the Michigan Democrat. Cheney focused her speech on restoring a republic she believes has been damaged by many in the Republican Party.
“If we want to ensure this revival of our republic, we have to walk away from politics as usual,” the Republican told a crowd of 500, according to the Detroit News, adding. “If the people in our party are not doing the job they need to do, then we’re going to vote for the people in the other party.”
Slotkin rehashed Cheney’s concern for the state of American politics, saying that the biggest issue the two agree on is “preserving American democracy.”
The Democrat’s GOP opponent Barrett railed against Cheney and Slotkin, calling them “war-hawks.” Barrett was endorsed by Harriet Hageman who defeated Cheney in Wyoming’s Republican primary in August.
“People are sick and tired of these establishment forces hanging together, no matter what,” Barrett said. “The phony idea that Elissa Slotkin and Liz Cheney are now part of some non-partisan coalition together – the only thing they brought us is the misery we’re all feeling right now.”

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) backed another Democratic candidate on Tuesday, telling a journalist in Ohio that she would not vote for GOP Senate candidate J.D. Vance.
Cheney shared the comment during a conversation with journalist Judy Woodruff in Cleveland, Ohio, on Tuesday.
“I would not vote for J.D. Vance,” Cheney <a href="https://www.beaconjournal.com/story/news/politics/2022/11/01/liz-cheney-spurns-j-d-vance-backs-tim-ryan-in-ohio-race-for-senate/69610822007/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a>.
When asked if she would vote for Ryan if she was a resident in Ohio, she responded, &#8220;I would.&#8221;
Vance and Ryan are competing to become the state&#8217;s next senator following Republican Sen. Rob Portman&#8217;s decision not to seek re-election.
Cheney&#8217;s remarks come after she has expressed support for a growing list of Democratic candidates in the final days ahead of the midterm election. The GOP congresswoman previously expressed her public endorsement of Michigan Democratic Rep. Elissa Slotkin in her re-election campaign against a Republican opponent.
“I’m proud to endorse Elissa Slotkin. Serving together on the Armed Services Committee, I have come to know Elissa as a good and honorable public servant who works hard for the people she represents, wants what’s best for the country, and is in this for the right reasons,” Cheney <a href="https://elissaforcongress.com/press-release-cheney/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in a statement released by Slotkin&#8217;s campaign website.
“While Elissa and I have our policy disagreements, at a time when our nation is facing threats at home and abroad, we need serious, responsible, substantive members like Elissa in Congress. I encourage all voters in the 7th district – Republicans, Democrats, and Independents – to support her in this election,&#8221; she added.
Cheney&#8217;s political action group, The Great Task, also recently announced that it is spending $500,000 on airtime to urge Arizona voters to oppose GOP gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake and Secretary of State candidate Mark Finchem.
