As my colleague Nick Arama reported, Kamala Harris surrogate and Never Trumper Liz Cheney made claims on X that former President and GOP nominee Donald Trump threatened her and “those who speak against them with death.” Cheney posted a snippet of a Trump interview taken totally out of context to shore up her fallacious point.
This is how dictators destroy free nations. They threaten those who speak against them with death. We cannot entrust our country and our freedom to a petty, vindictive, cruel, unstable man who wants to be a tyrant. #Womenwillnotbesilenced #VoteKamala https://t.co/URH5s929Sa

It has not gone well for Cheney, and she is receiving scorn from both the Left and the Right for her comments and selective showing of the video. Cheney attempted to score political points on the subject of wars that she herself voted for and co-signed. Cheney is still on board for more wars, which is why she is endorsing and campaigning for Kamala Harris. She appears to enjoy the blood on her hands while wearing white gloves in an attempt to hide them.
Iraq and Afghanistan war veteran Johnny “Joey” Jones took to X to go scorched earth on Cheney. In 2010, as an ordinance disposal technician, Jones was deployed to Helmand Province in Afghanistan. During a routine drill, while in the process of destroying explosive devices, Jones mistakenly stepped on a hidden Improvised explosive device (IED), and it deployed. Jones lost both his legs, injured his wrists and right forearm, and after multiple surgeries and massive therapy and rehabilitation, Jones is able to walk with prosthetic legs. Two years ago, Jones celebrated the 12th anniversary of his “Alive Day” while promoting a Fox Nation documentary about those men and women who paid the ultimate price for Jones’ and our lives and freedoms.
WATCH:
So, Jones, as well as his brothers- and sisters-in-arms, suffered the true cost of Harris’ Cheney’s, and Biden’s forever wars.
Jones quote posted Cheney’s egregious rant with this message:
WARNING: Strong language.
As one of the Marines sent to fight your daddy’s bullshit war I just need you to know active duty and veterans say this about you and those like you all the time. We are not petty, vindictive, cruel or unstable. We’re amputated, mangled, stressed and fed up. https://t.co/m9lUJDOsgm

Wow, that’s going to leave a mark. Cheney lives in an ivory tower with her attorney husband, and raised her five children in ease and luxury, while Jones and his fellow service members bled, died, and suffered incalculable loss in the Middle East and even more when they returned home. The ultimate spitting on them occurred with Biden-Harris’ disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan while they pontificate about Trump being a dictator and warmonger. This characterization falls solely in their camp, but they accuse their opponent of that which they themselves are doing.
Jones wasn’t finished with Cheney. He continued in a different post, condemning the blood money that has paid for her ease and comfort.
When you die OF OLD AGE you’ll be buried with Halliburton money. Your kids and grandkids will inherent Halliburton money. When you cry at night over means tweets, you’ll wipe your tears with Halliburton money. My friends in Arlington died earning Halliburton more money. https://t.co/m9lUJDOsgm

Brutal, but straight-up truth. Cheney should now slink away in shame after this, but sadly, she has none.
