Former Representative Liz Cheney responded to President-elect Donald Trump's criticism after receiving the Presidential Citizens Medal from President Joe Biden. Trump had dismissed the medals as "fake" and attacked Cheney's integrity on his social media platform. In her rebuttal on social platform X, Cheney emphasized that the U.S. is not like the Soviet Union, where truth can be manipulated or dissent silenced. She refuted Trump's ongoing false claims about the 2020 election and highlighted the legal repercussions faced by Trump's allies who attempted to overturn the election results. Cheney also recalled former Vice President Mike Pence's role in certifying the election results, reinforcing the peaceful transfer of power and urging Americans to stand against Trump’s falsehoods to protect democratic principles.
