Anybody want to join me moving to Wyoming for a couple of weeks before November 8? If so, we need about 99,998 more.

Was worth $1 million when she took office, made $174k per year, 6 years later worth $35 million.
I know, book deal.
Time to remove your head from Tucker’s butt:

That's what a patriot looks like. Country above party. Democracy above personal ambition. Integrity above power.
Look forward to Rep. Cheney's continued leadership on the Jan. 6 Committee, and her involvement in the 2024 GOP primary.
She can offer much more to the country on the national stage than serving 500k people in a mountain state.

RealClearPolitics...
"one of the most prominent platforms for elevating unverified and reckless stories about the president's (tRump's) political opponents"
"Real Clear Politics gave top billing to stories that reinforced the false narrative that the president (tRump) could still somehow eke out a win."

It's frustrating to hear some Democrats that can't simply respect the bravery of her stance. She's been incredibly valuable.

I think history will look very favorbly on her.

According to this source, Liz Cheney’s net worth in 2022 is $7m. According to Tucker Carlson, that’s what her net worth was before being elected. Not much growth, there.
I don’t know how reliable a source “exactnetworth.com“ is, but I do know that Tucker Carlson, as a pundit, is not obligated to the truth. His show is not a news show, it’s entertainment. IIRC, that’s how Rupert Murdoch clarified the purpose of Fox News in general: Entertainment, not news. That’s how he excuses the overall lack of factual information on that network.

There's no need for anyone to feel sorry for Liz. She's fine and will be fine. Feel for us that she'll be replaced with a Trump sycophant. We've had to battle Cheney but at least not over this.
