As we reported earlier Monday, former January 6 select committee member and Kamala Harris campaign tour buddy Liz Cheney seemed nervous. In response to President-elect Donald Trump's suggestion that she and the other members of the committee should be in jail, Cheney told the New York Times, "Donald Trump’s suggestion that members of Congress who later investigated his illegal and unconstitutional actions should be jailed is a continuation of his assault on the rule of law and the foundations of our republic."
It's been reported that President Joe Biden is considering preemptive pardons of Cheney and Adam Schiff. Why would he do that if they hadn't done anything criminal, like withholding exculpatory evidence and committing perjury?
We're hearing now that Cheney has a warning for any lawyers who would investigate members of the January 6 committee: they'd be subject to sanctions.
🚨BREAKING: Liz Cheney warns that any lawyer who investigates members of the January 6th committee will be engaging in conduct subject to sanctions.

So, she is saying that some people are above the law? Got it.

But I thought no one is above the law

Liz and her committee cohorts are apparently, above the law https://t.co/VxaZXyZAE4

Sanctioned by whom for what?

Even more of a reason to investigate them.

How so?

What government position does Liz Cheney have again?

Scary Liz trying to be scary. We aren't impressed.

Someone sounds highly guilty. She should be the first one investigated

Sanctions? She’s a private citizen. What is she going to do with sanctions? Talk about sanctions? That’s about it.
— Tom Maga 🇺🇸 (@itstommaga) December 9, 2024
What exactly is Liz in charge of anymore? Remind me?

That’s cute.
— Mario Lawrence (@mariolawrencejr) December 9, 2024
I hope every lawyer in the country launches an investigation out of spite.
What sanctions and from whom?
— Implicit Truths (@CrayCrayBlocker) December 9, 2024
Empty bloviating.
That sounds like a threat. She must really be wanting that preemptive pardon.
