Liz Cheney is now free to run the Jan 6th Commission without fear or political concern. With Pence announcin' he is open to testifyin', she's about to burn MAGA to the ground.

I support the FBI and the current DOJ.

Quote: “We owe you big man, we owe you.”

As President Biden signed the PACT Act, which expands health benefits to veterans who were exposed to toxic burn pits, he praised Jon Stewart for the comedian’s leading role in pushing Congress to pass the bill. When the bill was being blocked by some GOP lawmakers, Stewart protested with veterans groups and unleashed tirades that went viral online.
