yoomian 's review for:

5.0

I never thought I would read a book by Liz Cheney. I can’t say I was a fan of her or )or her dad) but I admired her for standing up for the constitution, even when she knew it would cost her her job. Even if you disagree with her policies and beliefs (which I do), you can’t deny that she believes in the rule of law and that the constitution is what makes democracy work. When senators and representatives are sworn in to office, they swear and oath:


I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.


An oath to the constitution. Not to their party. Not to any man. I believe Liz Cheney upheld her oath. I cannot say that for many others she used to work with.

I recommend the audiobook. She’s clear and calm, her voice never wavers. She lays out the events leading up to January 6th and the investigation after. This is important. The facts matter.
