Fake conservative Deep State neocon goon (is that enough of a descriptor?) Liz Cheney has a new book to sell, a new MSNBC contributorship to audition for, a democratic process in the GOP primary to thwart, and a few more Middle East Forever-Wars to start for God and Country.
She’s a busy lady, even in ostensible retirement, having been run out of office after she went full TDS.

In all of those endeavors, Cheney has a willing partner (the business kind, ostensibly not the sexual kind, although Maddow is a noted high-profile lesbian) in Rachel Maddow.
To those ends, Maddow invited Cheney onto her show for a good servicing.
Via Forbes (emphasis added):
It was one of the most unusual interviews in Rachel Maddow’s long tenure at MSNBC: former Republican Rep. Liz Cheney, who joined Maddow on set Monday night. As Maddow told viewers, “I disagree with Liz Cheney about everything. My whole adult life on everything in politics, I would not just say that Liz Cheney and I were on different proverbial teams, I would say we are from different proverbial planets. And they are planets that are mostly at war with each other.”
The Cheney interview drew a big audience: 3.15 million viewers, which made The Rachel Maddow Show the most-watched show in all of cable news Monday night, well ahead of Fox News Channel’s Hannity, which had a total audience of 1.936 million viewers, and CNN’s The Source with Kaitlan Collins, which drew a total audience of just 375,000 viewers…
Cheney, who has been fiercely critical of former President Donald Trump, made the trip to MSNBC to talk about her new memoir and her concerns about what might happen should Donald Trump win in 2024.
To appease her liberal audience and ease them into the fawning interview, Maddow spends several minutes emphasizing that she is not on the same political team as Cheney, despite inarguably being on exactly the same political team as Cheney — the Uniparty Team, the Deep State Team, the Permanent Administrative State Team, the Warmonger Team.
I say this tonight, not for the gee whiz factor of me having Liz Cheney here tonight, me having somebody here tonight who you would never expect. I say this not for just the man-bites-dog weirdness of this. I say it because I think, in civic terms, in sort of American citizenship terms, I think it's really important how much we disagree. It's important how far apart we are in every policy issue imaginable. It is important that Liz Cheney is infinity and I am negative infinity on the ideological number line. It's important because that tells you how serious and big something has to be to put us, to put me and Liz Cheney, together on the same side of something in American life.
Liz Cheney’s constituency is now the suburban D.C., MSNBC-viewing wine moms with “Thank You, Dr. Fauci” yard signs. That’s who she is.
In fact, a Swamp creature is who she has always been, and her degenerate war criminal daddy too. They just did a hell of a marketing job back in the day convincing gullible conservatives that they somehow shared any of their values or interests. Thankfully, though, the 2004 War of Terror days are long gone, and no decent American any longer doesn’t hate the Cheneys’ guts, and the Bushes’ too, and the whole lot.
