Former No. 3 House Republican Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.)
recirculated Rep. Elise Stefanik’s (R-N.Y.)
statement on the Jan. 6 Capitol attack after
the current House GOP Conference Chair
reportedly deleted it off her website.
On Tuesday, Cheney shared on X, formerly known
as Twitter, a link to Stefanik’s now-deleted
statement about Jan. 6.
After sharing Stefanik’s statement, it was
deleted from the New York congresswoman’s page,
which now only displays the “ERROR” message.
On Saturday morning, Cheney posted on X that
she was informed that Stefanik deleted her
statement about Jan. 6 where she called for
the Jan. 6 perpetrators to be prosecuted “to
the fullest extent of the law.” Cheney also
shared the screenshot of Stefanik’s statement.
In her statement on the Capitol riot, Stefanik
characterized the violence as “anti-American”
and called it a “tragic.”
“This is truly a tragic day for America,”
Stefanik said in the statement on Jan. 6, 2021.
“I fully condemn the dangerous violence and
destruction that occurred today at the United
States Capitol. Americans have a Constitutional
right to protest and freedom of speech, but
violence in any form is absolutely unacceptable
and anti-American. The perpetrators of this
un-American violence and destruction must be
prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
Stefanik has since changed the way she
describes those who stormed the Capitol.
During an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press”
in early January, she stated she had “concerns
about the treatment of Jan. 6 hostages.”
And here's Stefanik's tweet:
