Liz Cheney Increased Her Wealth by $36 Million After Serving Just 6.5 Years in Congress
2023-01-05
[The Republic Brief] Tucker Carlson slammed former US Rep. Liz Cheney for getting rich, making close to 6 Million dollars a year, somehow- while she was in office as a public servant

Cheney’s salary from her work in DC was $174,000 per year as a member of Congress, which she has received since starting that job in 2017.

Just two years after she started in DC, Republican Speaker Paul Ryan (RINO-WI) elevated her to the Chair of the House Republican Conference. Ryan did this knowing Cheney was a bombastic Never Trumper.

In 2018 Cheney’s estimated net worth, according to OpenSecrets, was nearly $15 million.

So Cheney reportedly was worth $7 million in 2017, and in 2023 she is worth an estimated $44 million.

That is quite a huge bunch of money for someone who is supposed to be serving the public.

Tucker Carlson slammed her hard for her wealth:

#4  Demonstrates her superior business sense and investment skill, unlike the actual businessman Trump who lost a fortune while in office…
