Washington – This morning, Wyoming Congresswoman and House GOP Conference Chair Liz Cheney (R-WY) appeared on Fox and Friends where she spoke about the latest developments after Iran launched missiles at U.S. bases in Iran. Watch the full interview here, and see an excerpt of the transcript below:

BRIAN KILMEADE: So you were tweeting last night, you responded to Nancy Pelosi’s tweet. She said this, “Closely monitoring the situation following bombings targeting U.S. troops in Iraq. We must ensure the safety of our servicemembers, including ending needless provocations from the Administration and demanding that Iran cease its violence. America and world cannot afford war.” You responded, “Speaker Pelosi is an embarrassment and unfit for office.”

REP. CHENEYYes, and I mean, look, Speaker Pelosi has proven herself time and time again to be completely and totally lacking in any seriousness. Don’t forget, the Speaker of the House is second in line for the presidency after the Vice President of the United States. This is the person who told us for months and months that it was urgent for our national security that we impeach President Trump, so the House Democrats impeached him with no direct evidence. Now she’s been literally sitting on the Articles of Impeachment ever since, it seems now to be urgent not to impeach President Trump. Now in the wake of missiles raining down on American service members in Iraq, Speaker Pelosi is saying it was needless provocation on our part. She’s blaming the United States of America, she’s suggesting a moral equivalence between the United States and Iran. I think she is clearly an embarrassment. I’m frankly surprised that the Democratic Caucus continues to support her as their leader and as the Speaker of the House.
