On Friday, President-elect Donald Trump was incensed by President Joe Biden’s decision to commemorate former Republican congresswoman Liz Cheney the day before a new post on Truth Social.
On Thursday, Biden bestowed the Presidential Citizens Medal upon Cheney at the White House, a recognition that was largely attributable to her vocal opposition to Trump since the January 6, 2021 Capitol disturbance.
The news was not well received by the president-elect.
“Biden gave Liz Cheney a Medal yesterday, even though she has proven to be totally corrupt. She, “Bennie” Thompson, and the rest of the Unselect Committee, destroyed and deleted all evidence from their crooked investigation of January 6th.” Trump wrote on his Truth Social account.
“Cheney has the distinction of losing her Congressional seat by the largest margin in History! The people of Wyoming understood how bad for our Country she was, but Biden rewarded her only because she hated “TRUMP.” She’s a Warmonger of low intelligence. All she wants to do is kill people in “Endless Wars,” with no gain other than to defense companies.” he added.
“Liz Cheney, Cryin’ Adam Kinzinger, Bennie Thompson, and the rest of these dishonest Thugs have gotten away with horrible things under the pretense of January 6th. Nancy Pelosi refused to accept the help which was offered for security. She is responsible, and admitted as much, for all to see, on her daughter’s tape.” Trump concluded.
Trump recommended that Cheney and other members of the January 6 committee “go to jail” last month.
