cheney when we are talking about donald trump breaking liz cheney. during the trump's years, she voted with donald trump much more often than a lot of people are criticizing her. she was never a trumper way back. the breaking point was when she saw americans storming the capitol trying to overturn the election and trying to kill the vice president and speaker of the house. maybe that broke her like a lot of people in this country and having them say enough is enough. the next thing that makes her broken by donald trump in ted cruz's terms is -- and that according to ted cruz and others have broken liz cheney. >> and also liz even during the last year of donald trump's presidency, she got it right on covid. she said something on sense on covid. she told them stop accusing me of murder. we appreciated that. kevin mccarthy did what? >> she was right on covid and vaccines. and she attacked donald trump because you know he wanted to get out of afghanistan which is what's so rich about people criticizing joe biden for getting out of afghanistan because don

liz cheney or anybody else. maria: that was former new jersey governor chris christie with me this week on "mornings with maria" on fox business on the report to run for president again. perhaps with liz cheney as his running mate. he made headlines for voting with the democrats to censor gop representative and for being oust from wyoming republican party. my next guest is looking to unseat cheney and the house primary coming up. harriet hageman is a former republican national committee woman in the cabinet where you can do. good morning to you harriet, thank you for being here. >> in morning, thank you for having me. maria: president donald trump has endorsed you, cheney said the reelection bid in wyoming will be the most important house content and the country in 2022, do you agree. >> i tend to agree with that. i think there are many reasons why it is. what it comes down to, what side of the party are you going to be on. in wyoming we support the america first agenda in the wyoming first agenda. donald trump

there's not a big surprise here, liz cheney will have a primary. her primary opponent endorsed by the wyoming party by donald trump. liz cheney is the cheney name in wyoming goes very deep, perhaps she could pull off a win, but to susan's point, in the primaries, this is still donald trump's party. whether liz cheney returns to congress or not, her legacy will be richer because of what she's done the past couple years. >> time wise, i'm going to pose this question to both of you, rachelle and susan. let's look at the states when are redrawing every congressional district in the u.s., and so far in states with finalized maps, there will be 28 strong biden 2026, that's up three since 2020. 19 competitive districts, that is down 12 from 2020, but here's the big one. 68 strong trump districts, that's up 14 since 2020. both of you react. rachelle, you first. >> yeah, this is a huge concern. obviously. and i think that the democrats have got to get on point with their messaging. unfortunately, right now, with the democrats, it's a party of three. you hav

so, i'm definitely a liz cheney fan, always have been. and she is standing up to do what she thinks is right. everybody in our party should be doing that. doesn't mean they have to agree with liz. it means they have to stand up and believe what they believe is right and be held accountable for that. >> good morning, governor. it's good to see you. >> willie, how are you? >> since late february. i'm doing well, my new jersey native. let's go back to late february 2016, you surprised a lot of people when you stemmed on a stage in ft. worth texas, behind donald trump and offered your endorsement. you said you were proud to do it. you had basically taken out marco rubio before that. when you look back since then, are you proud to endorse him? >> yeah, i think a lot of things happened during the trump presidency through a policy perspective, willie. and then there were things that i didn't agree with the way he approached the job. and i spoke out about those things. but elections are choices. i was explaining about the ambassador when asking m

tim miller, reject the lie so says liz cheney. your reaction? >> liz cheney is right. so kudos to her for that. i agree with her about how in principle we need two parties and why i'm encouraged that there's something like liz cheney fighting but look. we have seen adam kinzinger is now retiring from congress. anthony gonzalez is retiring. i think that liz cheney is in for the campaign of her life and a heavy underdog right now and so i think that it's likely to come back in 2023 to have a congress that is a republican caucus that's more sympathetic to the events of january 6 than we do today rather than less and while i think liz cheney is correct from an ethical stand point, i do not share the optimism about the political prospects of saying no to the lie and today's republican party. >> what do you make of republicans looking at what happened in virginia? the distancing i should say of glern youngkin from the president -- the former president, somewhat like the "snl" skit and gaining success? rick scott say you don't have to embrace donald trump which i found surpri

i've got to jump. >> liz cheney -- okay. liz cheney will always be be respected. no matter what happens in a re-election, she's bigger than life right now. >> yeah. >> for the good. >> and unfortunately the way it looks right now she's got a good chance of being a regular on my show if they primary her and she gets kicked out. governor kasich, i appreciate and respect you. begala, thank you very much. best for thanksgiving. >> happy thanksgiving. >> always. >> happy thanksgiving. >> be well. i'm thankful for you both. all right. now, look, let's use our sense of common concern and collective will. all right? i just want to take a quick break beat and then we're going to stay on a story until it ends. okay? one of the best known names in tennis in china is missing. you may have never heard of her. she's a huge doubles player. i think she was ranked number one in doubles. she won majors and stuff. she's a phenomenal player. i've seen her play. she's missing. now, china's not saying that. but it it should be said. and it should be said by tennis. and not subtly. many

i mean, as -- as liz cheney points out. i mean, he accused cruz's father of being part of the kennedy assassination. he attacked the looks of his wife. i mean, it -- it's -- but it's -- the calculation here is quite simple. the vast majority of republican voters -- at least two-thirds in virtually every poll -- fully support donald trump. um, want him to run for president again. and even after all of this. so these -- ted cruz still wants to be president. there is no doubt about that. and he wants -- to do so, he has to get elected, nominated by a party where rank-and-file voters support donald trump. >> but i mean, could not -- had they just stuck to their guns after january 6th and, you know, lindsey graham stood -- not that anyone's waiting to hear what is coming out of the mouth of lindsey graham but i mean stood by his guns. he said he was out. he could no longer do it. mitch mcconnell. would it have made a difference? would it have broken the trump hold over the republican party? or would all of those people, then, ju

liz cheney and adam kinzinger throw their careers away and you couldn't enforce the subpoena? they couldn't do their work? isn't that a worse fate? >> i agree it would be a worse fate in terms of the rule of law and democracy and holding people accountable. i'm just saying the visuals here sort of what clint was saying earlier. steve bannon being sort of led away in a courtroom. that will be used in the disinformation campaigns. there's no choice. this subpoena had to be issued. this subpoena had to be enforced and steve bannon needs to be prosecuted for defying it, but, know, we just should brace ourselves, inevitable, that this wills seen as proof of some giant, you know, conspiracy by the courts and the media and, again, the deep state to silence trump and his supporters. but in a way this is what has to happen as we go through this difficult time in our country. >> you know, having served in

you know, liz cheney's comments laid out the stakes very clearly. and in the future when a new edition of profiles in courage is written, there may very well be chapters on conservatives like liz cheney and adam kinzinger, who tried to make a commission bipartisan because it's in the national interest. and there will be, you know, history's villains will be the people that aided and agbetted this and threatened their colleagues with total impunity, like paul gosar, the people that fanned the flames of the big lie. the stakes could not be clearer. >> is it a sickness in our politics or a sickness in the republican party really? >> it's clearly within the republican party right now, and it's not all republicans. that's why the people who have stood up -- the republicans who have had the courage to stand up to their leadership, to stand up to donald trump in the impeachment vote, in the january 6th commission, those people are heroes. they should be celebrated no matter what political party you're in. but we also need to recognize that unfortunately th

that's liz cheney. she called out kevin mccarthy, the republican leader in the house of representatives, saying the fact that he's not come out more strongly against gosar's actions is indefensible. >>> let's get more with our chief political analyst gloria borger. john cass sick, the former republican governor of ohio, is with us. cnn's jeffrey toobin with us,

the other, liz cheney, has been disavowed by her state's republican party. susan, can the republican party be savaged? and what should the rest of us be doing while these people hold positions of power in our country? >> well, can it be salvaged, not in its current enforcement it literally needs to be burned to the ground and rebuilt. that is the only way you're going to see a principled party come back. and again, we're not talking about -- juanita doesn't have to agree with me on tax policy, but she needs a governing partner or someone who's willing to have a conversation to get things done, and that's where that simply does not exist in leadership in washington or, frankly, in many other places right now. >> when you say burned to the ground, you're talking about

talking about liz cheney. step back, liz cheney, daughter of dick cheney, but in her own right, a conservative stalwart, thrown out of the party because she won't stand by one person. >> look, when the argument by kevin mccarthy was that you can't have a leader in membership against a leader in membership, it's more, you're not with donald trump. it was something different. the more you see this spread through the party, the harder it is going to be for anyone trying to challenge trump in any way going forward. >> it's not democracy, small "d," one politics, one man. not something you see in the u.s. >> this is not how the two-party system works. it is not pledging loyalty to one person. i thought the vote would be worse than it was. >> 31-29 shows a near majority of republicans in the state willing to say, this is stupid. >> i think there are a lot of people who actually are willing, certainly privately, i've talked to them, you've talked to them, who will say, "this is a mistake. this isn't the road they sho

and liz cheney is suffering from that. look, if it's spreading across the country and has spread widely. trumpism has been embraced increasingly, not decreasingly, all offer the country. and the republicans i think are really getting a little scared. it's getting too hot. they won in virginia, youngkin won in virginia because he struck a better balance. he kept his distance but didn't go after him. what he did was come forward with a fresh new agenda or what sounded like that. so that was a winning ticket, and they do need to take a stand on this fellow for what he did and make it clear, we're not, you know, we've got to work together on this. we cannot be for condoning violence. i mean, who -- if you run something showing somebody killing -- just by definition, it's wrong. it's crazy. >> yeah, you know, it's true. jeff, what sort of message does that send to other republicans, what the republican party in wyoming, for example, is doing to liz cheney as everyone is getting ready to now head into the midterm elections. >> l

after saturday he tweeted that liz cheney should write -- liz cheney wrote -- my republican party saved the union. act like it. we're back with a.b. stoddard. liz cheney walks and talks like she's going to pursue the truth about january 6th wherever that takes her, to the gates of hell. she doesn't have any more bleeps to give here. >> no, and that's why it's so interesting that ted cruz would be tempted to try to take on liz cheney. i mean, there are other people he could lob insults at, but she's the one person he should stay away from. i'm also surprised about all the bombshells in jon karl's new reporting in his book, that mitch mcconnell, the minority leader -- even though he's publicly sided with liz cheney, he's taken her aside and tried to convince her to stop criticizing 9 former president, because it's not good for the party. she doesn't warrant a republican that bowing to seditionist donald trump, and she's been saying that since january 6th. she's not interested in endorsing herschel walker, like mitch mcconnell is, or hoping to convince ron johnson to run for senate again l

he mentioned liz cheney earlier. she said president trump was the root cause, she's on that that committee. adam schiff your viewers know well about, the lead prosecutor. these people set it up. they sent the subpoena demanding his appearance and produce documents. >> sean: where is the commission looking into the 535 riots that took place in the summer of 2020 where dozens of americans died, billions of dollars in property damage and looting and arson? >> doesn't fit their political agenda. this is completely politicized and now they've politicize the criminal law. it's absolutely outrageous. what happened here is bannon is a layperson and that's the subpoena, invoked the privilege, the executive privilege applies here. bannon has a lawyer who he hired, a professional lawyer, experienced guy and said to him you must not appear, must not turn over the documents. he followed those instructions and he is charged with a crime for it. can you imagine? and the american people lose because this is a sham investigation. >>

my question is about whether liz cheney speaks just for liz cheney or whether there are others in her caucus who see the world just the way she does. >> i think there are other people in the caucus who see the world liz cheney does, but there are very few who are willing to speak up and say what she's saying and if you look at you know, just the small segment of republicans who have been willing to vote for the creation of this investigation of the january 6th attack who were willing to vote for impeachment. who were even willing to vote for policies like infrastructure. it's a small group of people and the incentives are all in the other direction for them politically. what you're seeing is most of the people willing to speak up and say the things she's saying are people who are retiring. are people who for whatever reason have their own sort of political identity that they think they can afford to do that, but it is a real risk and i think there's a much larger really more silent sort of rank and file, i don't know if you want to call them a majority, but there are large numbers of

that wouldst be a question i specifically would give to liz cheney. he's been on the high horse lecturing everybody about the constitution, the need for the rule of law, et cetera, et cetera. e as have many others that are on this commission with a predetermined outcome. when they kicked off jim jordan and jim banks and liz cheney -- you knew that it was a stacked deck that predetermines conclusion to whatever this commission was going to come up with. but if they really care about riots, why not investigate the ones that killed thousands of americans, hurt thousands of police officers where we have billions of dollars in damage in terms of looting and arson that took place. a cityf blocks over. tcops pelted -- we are not going to investigate that. dozens died. i guess that wouldn't advance, so let's say the rabbit obsessive-compulsive anti-trump agenda of people like liz cheney, or perhaps maybe the real agenda is to purge the republican party of all things trump. otherwise i would think he would treat all riots equally. and by the way, it's interest

do you think there is a lane for liz cheney in presidential politics? >> i do. i think there are a lot of republicans who feel they don't have a home right now so they are looking for someplace to go. i'm not sure liz cheney is going to be the home they might want to gear toward. i think there is an opportunity in the republican party to really decide who they are going to be and if they have a candidate that can draw away from this trump idol they have right now and really be competitive with the moderate voters we saw a week ago in virginia, not wanting to go with biden or whoever is on the ticket for the democrats in 2024 cheney may be an option. there may be a list of others as well >> i just think if one of your top three attributes is anti-trump, that there is not going to be an audience in the republican primary. >> maybe a lot of voters but some have left the republican party and they're not going to be voting in the republican primary. >> but to her point she is saying people are saying it behind closed doors. when you go into your ballot box you don't

host: david drucker, what is the future for people like liz cheney? we know adam kinzinger, another republican who opposed the insurrection in the capital. what is the future of that wing of the republican party, at least on capitol hill? guest: they may not have much of a future. there is not a wing of trump opponents on capitol hill. there are less than a handful of republicans who are willing to openly defy and criticize the former president for his postelection behavior, and his culpability in the january 6 riots. what you are going to see in 2024, and you are already seeing this in 2022, is a party that has -- that is broadly behind the trump legislative agenda, and i think what some people forget is liz cheney voted with trump when it came to legislation, more so than her successor. liz cheney had a 80's -- 80% something voting record with the trump agenda but this has never been about the legislative agenda. it's all -- it's always been about fealty or loyalty to trump the person. since last november, about this election. you will not see repub

adam kinzinger and liz cheney had the courage of their convictions. voting with all of the democrats for the censure resolution. the most severe punishment, short of being expelled. okay? then, in a rare moment not seen in a decade, right, gosar stood in the well of the house chamber as the house speaker nancy pelosi read out the censure resolution. look at your screen. you see him right there. he is on the right side of your screen getting handshakes and pats on the back. republicans giving him on attaboy. this is where we are. but get this. only took about an hour. just about an hour later, he was at it again, seriously. paul gosar retweeting a supporter, the one that appeared to show him attacking alexandria ocasio-cortez. watch. >> it's sad. it is a sad day in which a member who leads a political party in the united states of america cannot bring themselves to say that issuing a depiction of murdering a member of congress is wrong. what is so hard -- hwhat is so hard about saying that this is wrong? this is not about me. this is not about represen

liz cheney going to new hampshire to complain about washington republicans and chris sinunu saying i don't want to be a washington republican. >> well, people love to want to be washington republicans is a pretty grubby bunch. you know, we have people running -- there is three people endorsed by trump running for senate -- one running for house have actually been accused of domestic violence. we have people talking about violence. it's been awhile since the capitol was considered a dangerous place to be -- sorry, it was only january 6th it was considered a physically dangerous place to be and some of this might seem like people are just trying to control people's words. i've heard paul gosar say that was a joke, the thing he tweeted out that had an anime version of him committing violence against aoc. i'm for him being rude. this is about violence. this is disregarding like the structures of democracy, which do depend on ensuring people's physical safety. that's like the fundamental need, reason we have a state and if we can't do that at the capitol that seems like a bad thing. >> ad

of course, it was adam kinzinger and liz cheney. do you think more republicans should have joined them or not? >> well, first of all, i haven't seen the video. but there is no place in the public life for pretension of acts of violence or any depiction of that. that is the last thing that we need. i advocate for more civility, versus less civility. and so, i don't like it. at the same time, congress has to make these decisions and i have been on the ethics committee in congress. i've dealt with tough issues like this, and in anf anything' going to have an impact, there ought to be a better bipartisan foundation for disciplinary action. and the fact that you only got two republicans that supported that effort indicates that most the republicans just believe that this was overreach, too severe of a punishment, and not a good precedent for the house. >> right. >> that's -- congress has to deal with that and they dealt with it today. but i haven't seen the video, and that's all i can say on it. >> so let me ask you about the point that,

betsy, chairman thompson i think on friday talked -- and liz cheney has been pretty open about it as well, about the number of witnesses, about the vast geographical scope of where they have investigators on the ground. notably it includes georgia, but it also includes pennsylvania and arizona and michigan. the me what stands out for new the batch of subpoenas. then we will all get into some of the individual letters. >> the most low profile person in this batch of subpoena is angela mccallum, somebody who was doing work in connection with the trump campaign. contemporaneous news reporting out of michigan. documented the fact that mccallum actually reached out to members of the michigan state legislature in that weird interim of time between after trump lost the election and before the attack on the capitol on january 6th that she reached out to these state legislators presumely on behalf of trump campaign and urged them to overturn the election results in their state and try to install a different slate of electors who would vote for trump rather than vote for biden. mccallum has go

liz cheney is one of the rare republicans to actually rebuke paul gosar. and you so her not hold back that fire on ted cruz. but the loudest voices in the room continue to be people like marjorie taylor green. and we have seen silence from republican leadership so far, which really comes across as a direct or tacit support or endorsement of paul gosar's behavior, and the behavior of this faction of the house freedom caucus that is gaining increasing power in the republican conference. >> disorienting is the perfect word for it, ashley. as sit here i have got my colleague garrett haake's he can change with kevin mccarthy, and i have got speaker pelosi's comments on how they are going to sort of communicate about the infrastructure bill. let me start with pelosi. i think jackie is right to sort of hit this -- these sort of two lines of questioning for the two parties. one about extremists within the ranks, and the other about legislation. let me show you speaker pelosi first. >> joe biden is very committed to messaging this. as you see, he's already on the r
