Liz Cheney is having a hard time of it lately.
The disgraced former Congresswoman, who wagered her entire political career on trying to defeat Donald Trump and lost spectacularly, lashed out at Elon Musk after he spoke out on her past links to USAID.
Musk, who is heading up the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), has recommended the gutting of the U.S. Agency for International Development and described it as a “criminal” organization involved in money laundering and wasting taxpayer dollars.
Posting on the X platform that he owns, Musk responded to a report by analyst Mike Benz that Liz Cheney had begun her political career at USAID.
Musk’s comment was picked up by Cheney, who used it as an opportunity to mock the fact that despite being a citizen, Musk was born and raised in South Africa.
“Damn right, @Elon. I’m proud of what America did to win the Cold War, defeat Soviet communism, and defend democracy,” she wrote.
“Our nation stood for freedom. You may be unfamiliar with that part of our history since you weren’t yet an American citizen.”
