Liz Cheney: Trump Wants Luz Pardoned?

Donald Trump Wants Liz Cheney Pardoned / Opinion

Story by Ross Rosenfeld. December 20, 2024.

• Trump’s Strategy: Donald Trump suggested that Liz Cheney (R-WY) could be prosecuted for her role in investigating the January 6 attack, but he might actually want her pardoned to avoid relitigating the insurrection.
• Political Implications: Prosecuting Cheney (R-WY) could backfire on Trump, making her a hero and bringing renewed focus to his actions during the January 6 events.
• Legal Hurdles: The Constitution’s speech or debate clause provides members of Congress with immunity for acts performed on the floor, complicating any prosecution.

• Pardon Considerations: President Joe Biden might consider offering preemptive pardons to those under threat from Trump’s potential actions, though some may prefer to fight the accusations.
