Fmr. President George W. Bush will fundraise for Rep. Liz Cheney as GOP rivals target her House seat. Cheney was one of 10 House Republicans to vote to impeach fmr. President Trump for role in Jan. 6 riot.
But he spoke out after the deadly Jan. 6 invasion of the U.S. Capitol, saying it "made me sick." Without mentioning Trump by name, BushOn the 20th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, Bush said that theCheney, who represents conservative-leaning Wyoming, was one of 10 House Republicans to vote to impeach Trump for inciting the Capitol riot. That handful of Republicans has since come under fire — not just from Trump's loyalists in Congress, but also from Trump himself.
After losing the election to President Joe Biden, Trump spent weeks fomenting false election conspiracies, while he and his allies filed lawsuits aimed at overturning states' election results. At a rally outside the White House on Jan. 6, Trump repeated the false election-rigging claims to a crowd of supporters, then directed the supporters toward the Capitol to pressure Republicans not to confirm Biden's victory.
