Liz Cheney draws comparison in ad to Hillary Clinton for joining Jan. 6 panel (yahoo.com)
Washington Examiner . . ."House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy attempted to appoint five members from his own conference, but Pelosi rejected two of those members: Reps. Jim Jordan of Ohio and Jim Banks of Indiana. This prompted McCarthy to pull all five of his appointments.
"The Wyoming Republican supported Pelosi’s decision to deny McCarthy’s appointments, telling reporters that one of the rejected GOP-appointed members “may well be a material witness to events that led to that day, that led to Jan. 6." The other member, Banks, Cheney said, "disqualified himself by his comments in particular over the past 24 hours, demonstrating that he is not taking this seriously, that he is not dealing with the facts of this investigation but rather viewed it as a political platform.”
"Cheney has a vast campaign war chest, as well as multiple primary challengers in Wyoming this cycle. She is among several anti-Trump Republicans who voted to impeach the 45th president over the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol.
"The Wyoming Republican believes that the former president encouraged his supporters to attack the Capitol to prevent the certification of the 2020 presidential election.". . .
