When this committee is done, I hope that the next committee is aimed at the finances of these networks, and prosecuted using Rico.

How are you gonna say suggests and report it as news when it's not fact 🤨🤨

[chrisredfield]

Shouldn't the headline START with "Cheney suggests"? It's put in there as a minor footnote. Very dishonest presentation.

[shrek]

What a waste of taxpayers money. There are other problems in america they need to address.

This is the saddest thing I've ever seen. When are we gonna have a hearing for the crackhead and his lying daddy. That's what we really need to be worried about..

[hauraw]

This media coverage is what's criminal

[joefrederick]

This “headline” is not worthy of journalism. The suggestion should be the first part of the title, not at the end. Sorry news media, you lost me again.

This country is cooked. We’re finished with these people in charge.

[southernman]

The key word here is "unnamed witness."

[WARVANE]

this is not a court of law, its just political theater. Waste of time and money.

CALLING A WITNESS WHEN THEY NOT A WITNESS YET 😂

2 things, Cheney and “suggests”…seriously? Now we’re considering speculations as evidence ?

[Ralph-nyey]

"Cheyney suggests" should be at the front of the headline instead of the back. Sensational reporting still doing its thing I see.

[carternelson]

A missed phone call is tampering. How is this not misinformation. This is such a joke

[joelyates]

There will never be any indictments. In a criminal trial, these self anointed arbiters of truth will themselves be required to testify under oath.

If only Liz went hunting with her dad more often....😂

That title is a perfect example of a clickbait title. In the first half it misleads the viewer into thinking its true and that's the only part that shows up when someone sees the thumbnail in the Top News. The second part doesn't show up unless you clicked the video to watch it.

[mikehall]

Cheney personally coached Cassidy Hutchison for 2 weeks before her testimony then gave her a hug afterwards for her performance...what exactly would you call that?

[tsc]

Cheney will be out of office soon. America can't wait.
