Summary

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes announced her office is examining whether Donald Trump’s recent remarks about former GOP Rep. Liz Cheney, made during an event with Tucker Carlson, could qualify as a death threat under Arizona law. Trump suggested that Cheney might reconsider her “war hawk” stance if guns were “trained on her face," prompting Mayes to instruct her criminal division to investigate.

Vice President Kamala Harris condemned Trump’s rhetoric, calling it “disqualifying” and warning of his “increasingly unstable and unhinged” behavior.

    Liz Cheney had an insanely high percentage of voting with Trump on legislation. Like 95%+. Way way higher than Elise Stefanik, who took her place in house leadership, because Stefanik was loyal on election denial.

    It is insane that anyone is fighting over Cheney vs Trump. None of them are good for America.

      But there are conservative-leaning never trumpers who have an ounce of moral standards that doesn’t let them vote for Trump who is unquestionably worse than Liz Cheney in every way (namely, she didn’t try to overthrow democracy on January 6th and continue to peddle the Big Lie).

      It is these voters Liz Cheney seeks for Harris and it’s clearly scaring the fuck out of Trump lol
