Has anyone accused her of lying?

Former Vice President Dick Cheney's little girl, Congresswoman Liz Cheney, is a member of congress from Wyoming and the current House Republican Conference Chair. To be honest with you, I have no idea what the House Republican Conference is nor do I know what the role of it's Chair is but I do know that Liz Cheney has been calling Donald Trump out every time he says the 2020 Presidential election was stolen from him.

I personally think Donald Trump lost the election fair and square. I also believe Donald is practitioner of the Joseph Goebbels school of propaganda:
    If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.
Near as i can tell, Trump's entire life has been a lie. He lies about how he acquired his wealth, claiming he built his "billion dollar" real estate empire from "a small loan from his father". It was actually built upon a rather large loan from his father followed by a significant inheritance upon his fathers death.

As most of you know, I don't like Trump. I didn't like him before he ran for president but he really pissed me off the minute he called John McCain a loser.

But all that aside, Liz Cheney is calling Trump out every time he tells his lie about the election and because of that, the Republican leadership is trying to oust her from her chair. Basically they are a dysfunctional family in the middle of a war over who is the boss of who.

My question is pretty simple: Of all the republicans trying to oust Cheney from her role as chair, have any of them called her a liar for saying that Trump is lying? Are any of them willing to go on record to accuse her of lying about the election?

The short answer is, no, none of them want to go on record accusing her of lying because they all know she is telling the truth about Trump's lie.

The Republican Party is done. It's tearing itself apart from the inside out. It's fast becoming irrelevant and I predict a new party made up of like-minded independents (constitutionalist perhaps?) will one day form to fill the void left by the GOP.


My wife and I both need to get new cell phones.

My phone is at least 7 years old (it's an iPhone 6) and while it works like a champ when it comes to texting and talking, it's beginning to fall down on the job when it comes to finding things on the internet and providing that much-needed GPS service I find so helpful.

My wife's phone isn't much newer (it's a first-gen iPhone SE) and it not only can't handle any modern applications, it's constantly out of memory and it's having problems interacting with her other Apple products.

The problem is, it's been so long since we bought cell phones, we don't know what the new ones are like. We need to see them and at some point this week, we'll be heading over to the Verizon store and seeing what's what.

Oh, and for the record, neither one of us likes change so this should be interesting.


The Red Sox and the Orioles play game four of their four-game series at 7:00 tonight.

The Bruins and the Islanders drop puck at 7:00 tonight.

That means I have another evening of flip-flopping between NESN and NESN+

I also really hope the Bruins win tonight because if they lose, the Islanders will move back into third place and the Bruins will end up in fourth place.

Third place is better than fourth...
