WASHINGTON – Utah Republican Sen. Mitt Romney on Tuesday defended embattled Rep. Liz Cheney, who is facing attacks from fellow House Republicans after she repeatedly pushed back against former President Donald Trump's claims the election was stolen.

Cheney, R-Wyo., is under mounting criticism and scorn from Republicans over her statements regarding Trump. She called his election fraud claim a "big lie" on Monday

"Every person of conscience draws a line beyond which they will not go: Liz Cheney refuses to lie," Romney tweeted Tuesday.

"...about this"

The full sentence should be "Liz Cheney refuses to lie ABOUT THIS."

She'll still lie about everything else. JFC, she's a Cheney. She is only speaking out because the crazies are taking the control that was supposed to go to her, that's ALL.
