Cheney Rips Trump, Pompeo for 'Praising' Russian President: 'Putin Is Evil'

Representative Liz Cheney, a Wyoming Republican, took aim at former President Donald Trump and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo—suggesting they are providing Moscow with propaganda in support of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Trump controversially described Putin as a "genius" as the invasion of Ukraine commenced this past week. Pompeo in recent interviews described the Russian president as "savvy" and "talented," he also said he had "enormous respect" for Putin.

In a Friday evening Twitter post, Cheney shared screenshots from Russian media promoting remarks from Trump, Pompeo and Fox News host Tucker Carlson that appeared to be favorable to Putin. The GOP congresswoman knocked the right-wing politicians and commentator for their positive assessments of the Russian adversary.

"As Russian forces invade Ukraine, Russian TV features Donald Trump, Mike Pompeo and Tucker Carlson praising Putin," Cheney tweeted. "Putin is evil. Every American watching what's happening in Ukraine should know that."
