Cheney knocks ‘growing Putin wing of the Republican Party’ (at the McCain Institute)
The Hill ^ | 10/05/22 8:39 PM E|| | BY JULIA MUELLER

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) on Wednesday criticized her party for what she sees as a growing sector of the GOP that supports Russian President Vladimir Putin as he wages his attacks on Ukraine.

“You know, the Republican Party is the party of Reagan, the party that essentially won the Cold War. And you look now at what I think is really a growing Putin wing of the Republican Party,” Cheney said at a McCain Institute event at Arizona State University.

The outgoing congresswoman, who lost her reelection bid in Wyoming to her Trump-backed Republican challenger, knocked Fox News for “running propaganda” and called out Fox host Tucker Carlson as “the biggest propagandist for Putin on that network.”

“You really have to ask yourself, whose side is Fox on in this battle? And how could it be that you have a wing of the Republican Party that thinks that America would be standing with Putin as he conducts that brutal invasion of Ukraine?” Cheney asked.

No report or photos of the crowd she allegedly spoke to - was the room empty?

I saw the first few minutes and nobody is that stupid. Liz Cheney is deliberately telling blatantly false lies. In one sentence she said Jan 6 protesters were armed and police were killed. This was an unbelievable propaganda event, meant to ramp up hate for the Trump-deranged.

The camera was close, showing perhaps two front rows if I recall. They probably paid them to be there.

Its the usual from the neocon warmongers.

Did YOU ever put on the uniform, grab a rifle and go into battle Liz? Did your Daddy? Of course not. You expect other people’s kids to get killed for your imperial fantasies.

Cheney. McCain. Romney. etc.

We were complicit, back in the day, or making the RINO party. DC elites who hate real americans by the millions. Use them as fodder in foreign wars. Lie to them and do nothing about taxes, education, immigration and freedom.

Are these the last rattles of a dying snake that was once not only drunk on power, but relied on it?

How will she survive?
Speaking fees?
Does she get a congressional retirement ?
I really don’t care but am curious.

:: Its the usual from the neocon warmongers. ::

There is an actual problem that conservatives face.
That being there are thousands of conservative patriots that DID serve in Vietnam that continue to view Communism (Russia & CHY-na) as the “Nuclear Bear” intent on destroying “The American Way”.
In my experience, they are immovable.
Their response to modern warfare tactics is always the standard neoCon response: bomb the shit out of those animals until they are all gone.

Even in their state of denial, they use “conventional” responses to mentions of modern asymmetric warfare.
Tell them that CHY-na released COVID as a weapon and they insist that isn’t true because the US did not carpet-spray Ricin on mainland CHY-na in retaliation.

Who exactly are these “Putin supporting” Republicans, Liz? Defend your statement.
