The moment on January 6 that changed Liz Cheney
CNN
January 6 changed Liz Cheney.
While she hadn't been a big fan of Donald Trump for his four years in office, the riot he helped incite at the US Capitol that day convinced the Wyoming Republican that she needed to speak out more forcefully. "The President of the United States summoned this mob, assembled the mob, and lit the flame of this attack," she said soon after the insurrection. "Everything that followed was his doing." She was one of 10 House Republicans to vote to impeach Trump -- which ultimately led to her ouster as the third-ranking Republican in the House.More Related News
