Liz Cheney says Trump and Pompeo flat-out lied about the Afghan peace deal


Even though she has been one of President Donald Trump’s most ardent defenders over the past three years, Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) isn’t happy with the recently announced U.S.-Taliban peace deal, and she’s even claiming that Trump and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo lied about the details of the plan.

During a briefing in the House on Tuesday, Cheney accused Pompeo and the administration of not telling the truth, noting that classified documents related to the deal with the Taliban don’t include the things the Secretary of State said they would:

As Cheney is learning the hard way, much of what the Trump administration says cannot be accepted at face value. The president himself has been caught in over 16,000 lies or half-truths since taking office, and usually resorts to fiction rather than merely stating the facts and being honest.

When it comes to the U.S.-Taliban deal, Cheney sounded totally unconvinced that such a plan was in the best interests of the United States, remarking:

“What we have seen with this agreement now concerns me as much as the Iranian nuclear deal did, now that I have seen the documents and now that there seems to be still no verification mechanism by which we are going to enforce any of the so-called Taliban promise.”

5. Gee...

... Liz is a little late for the party... he lies constantly. Maybe someone should tell her NK and Iran are joining the nuclear playground, after Crooked Donald's bad dealing...

6. Liz doesn't need Trump

I bet Dick still has more pull in DC than Trump. I would love for Dick to snap his fingers to start a republican/pentagon/State Department revolt. Pompeo probably stands in Cheney's corner.

13. Not Pompeo

He's a religious nut bag like Pence and Barr...and he knows the best way to get his book of myths into the legal system is to stay true to Trump, and those Evangelicals that support him!!!

[Fla Dem]

22. Liz is a slow learner

From the OP.

As Cheney is learning the hard way, much of what the Trump administration says cannot be accepted at face value. The president himself has been caught in over 16,000 lies or half-truths since taking office, and usually resorts to fiction rather than merely stating the facts and being honest.

It's taken her over 3 years to realize Trump and his administration are a bunch of flim-flam artists who will do or say anything to get you to buy into their scam.

7. Anyone with half a brain just has to watch the fricking pattern. He

ALWAYS announces something as if it is a "thing" and then later, when that thing does not come to pass, we're already several news cycles down the road, and it gets buried.

He rolled out this HUGH!!1! "peace deal" to kick off his coronavirus press conference on Saturday, thinking that this would be what gets attention, blunting the negativity of the spread of the virus, but the deal obviously wasn't even worth the paper it was printed on.

Lather, rinse, repeat.

19. The implication here is that Trump's supporters don't even have half a brain.

8. So why don't you go impeach him, Liz

9. They learned to lie at her daddy's feet

She has some nerve - fuck everyone of them

[2naSalit]

14. +1

Never forget. We are suffering directly from the evil from which she spawned.

[gratuitous]

10. To quote your father, Liz: So?

Trump lied. He lied to your face. He sent his lackeys and underlings out to lie to you. You figured it out while they were still in the room. And your response? You're concerned. That's just so jejune. Angling for Susan Collins' street corner, are you?

[2naSalit]

15. Another quote from her dad...

directly from me to her, "Go fuck yourself."

[malaise]

16. Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Perfect

[kimbutgar]

12. Liz better shut up or MF45 won't be giving one of his insane rallies and bringing her on stage

With his endorsement. :sarcasm

Couldn’t happen to a better person

[Javaman]

17. fuck you, liz. stating the obvious is no fucking skill.

now go fuck off.

[Mr.Bill]

18. Sorry to hear about her

learning disability.

[relayerbob]

20. Trump Lied??? Who'da thought that?

She's pissed cause it means a reduction in Daddy's war income

[Hulk]

21. North Korea....take two

Just propaganda....nothing more. Not surprised it crumbled already. If it EVER happens, you can bet money that the Taliban will come down like an avalanche on the Afghan government once we pull out. They have NO intention of honoring an agreement with the infidel nation’s. Get serious!

If we think abandoning the Kurds and the corrupt South Vietnamese government were tragedies...you ain’t seen nothing yet. Not sure what the answer is, but if we don’t keep the threat of immediate retaliation...they will come down on the Afghan army like locusts.
