No evidence of political motivation behind FBI raid of Mar-a-Lago, Cheney says

Source: CNBC

By Amanda Macias

Representative Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., told ABC News that there was no political motivation in carrying out an FBI search of former President Donald Trump’s resort home in Palm Beach, Florida.

“I’ve seen no evidence that there was any political motivation,” Cheney told ABC News when asked about the Mar-a-Lago raid carried out by FBI agents.

“I was ashamed to hear Republicans immediately and reflexively attack the FBI agents who executed the search warrant. I was disgusted when I learned that President Trump had released the names of the agents when he released the unredacted search warrant, and that has now caused violence,” Cheney said in the interview, which aired on Sunday.

“This is a really dangerous moment,” she added.

It's all over every online news source. Headlines everywhere.

She opens her mouth, it's news. The deplorables won't believe a word she says anyway.
