Aug. 17, 2022: Scoop: Liz Cheney’s next move


Listen Later

Rep. Liz Cheney is wasting no time beginning the next phase of her bid to prevent Donald Trump's return to office. 

“In coming weeks, Liz will be launching an organization to educate the American people about the ongoing threat to our Republic, and to mobilize a unified effort to oppose any Donald Trump campaign for president,” Cheney spokesperson Jeremy Adler tells Playbook exclusively.

The new group, which will serve as Cheney’s primary political vehicle as she considers whether to run for president in 2024, does not have an official name yet. An informed guess: The Great Task, which was the name of Cheney’s final ad of the campaign. The phrase is from the last sentence of the Gettysburg Address, and Cheney also referenced it in her concession speech from Jackson, Wyo., last night. 

Cheney will be on NBC’s “Today Show” at 7 a.m.
