Letter: Cheney’s actions deserving of her recognition
Fox News contributor and former U.S. Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) is offended that President Biden gave former Representative Liz Cheney (R-WY) the Presidential Citizens Medal for leading the January 6 Committee and for putting country above party.
I thank Cheney for standing against a man who played a version of the national anthem at his campaign rallies that was sung by Jan. 6 prisoners who attacked police officers.
Moreover, in an interview with Jonathan Karl of ABC News, Trump defended the Jan. 6 rioters’ “Hang Mike Pence!” chants.
Liz Cheney was right to refuse to normalize Donald Trump’s behavior.
