George W. Bush maxes out political donations to Trump impeachment supporters Liz Cheney and Lisa Murkowski
Business Insider ^ | Feb 1 | Bryan Metzger

Posted on 02/01/2022 11:27:52 PM PST by RandFan

Former President George W. Bush gave the maximum allowed political contributions to Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney and Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski, two Republicans who supported impeaching former President Donald Trump over the January 6 Capitol riot.

New disclosures filed with the Federal Election Commission said Bush gave Cheney $5,800 on October 28 for both the general and primary elections. On December 31, he also gave Murkowski $2,900 for her primary. The FEC sets limits on political contributions.

Cheney, the daughter of Bush's own vice president, Dick Cheney, and an outspoken Trump critic, now serves as the lead Republican on the House Select Committee investigating January 6. She's set to face off against Harriet Hageman, a former RNC official who has been endorsed by Trump, in an August primary. Cheney has outraised Hageman by more than four to one — $2 million for Cheney versus $440,00 for Hageman — FEC disclosures showed.

In Alaska, Murkowski faces Kelly Tshibaka, a former commissioner of the Alaska Department of Administration. Given her relatively moderate voting record, Murkowski has long been vulnerable to primary challenges, and she waged a successful write-in campaign in 2010 after losing that year's Republican primary.

Back when she got primaries but won via write in, or whatever I figure with what’s known now that she won by vote fraud.

I refused to vote for this lump of coal in 2000.

I did go out and support him when Gore was trying to take
the election.

Heaven knows why...

He sure wasn’t on our team.

Three words “North American Union.”

The Bush Crime Family should be put on trial and imprisoned if found guilty.

Back on the day, his biggest weakness was he refused to stand up for himself and refused to stand up those who voted for him. I remember the 'Bushitler' years.

Sadly as time has gone on, he has gotten worse, much worse. I used to really respect him, but that is long gone due to his own backstabbing behavior.

I think we can say Bush’s are dynasty supporters....want the same people in office they’ve used for decades....they see themselves as having ‘family’ in congress and politics NO that the politicians represent the people....rather them and their interests.

He said they could fight it out in the courts!

Thanks George. Why did I stand at the corner of 24th and Mass, Ave. telling Gore to “Get out of Cheneys House”. You let us all down pal.
