Read our privacy policy Congresswoman Liz Cheney denounced two of her party’s furthest-right members in the US Senate on Sunday and called them categorically “unfit” for office. In an interview with ABC’s This Week, her first major sit-down interview since losing her primary election to Donald Trump-endorsed Harriet Hageman on Tuesday, she excoriated Sens Josh Hawley of Missouri and Ted Cruz of Texas for their roles in supporting Mr Trump’s lies about the 2020 election. “When you look at somebody like Josh Hawley, or somebody like Ted Cruz,” said the congresswoman, “both of whom who knew better” than to believe Donald Trump’s conspiracies about election fraud. “In my view, they both have made themselves unfit for future office.” Ms Cheney herself is thought to be harbouring future political ambitions, and is launching a group aimed at breaking Donald Trump’s hold on the GOP.
