Dear Ms. Cheney,
I’m late to the conversation, but let’s add some much-needed context to your stance on Ukraine by looking at the legacy you come from.
Your father, Dick Cheney, had a long and influential political career:
📌 Received five draft deferments during the Vietnam War, citing “other priorities,” and never served in the military.
📌 Served in key government roles, including White House Chief of Staff (Ford), U.S. Representative (Wyoming), and Secretary of Defense (Bush Sr.).
📌 As Secretary of Defense, oversaw U.S. military interventions in Panama and Iraq (Desert Storm).
📌 Led Halliburton as chairman and CEO (1995–2000), a company that later secured massive defense contracts in war zones.
📌 As Vice President, was a principal advocate for the 2003 Iraq invasion, citing claims that proved to be false.
📌 Accumulated a net worth reportedly reaching $86 million largely due to Halliburton.
These are facts. Neither you nor your father served in the military, yet he played a leading role in sending Americans into war—many of whom returned disabled, traumatized, or never returned at all. He and you profited immensely from the war machine while veterans struggled for the benefits they earned.
Despite this, you now position yourself as a leading voice on Ukraine. Why should anyone take your stance seriously, given your personal and family history of benefiting from military conflicts? Talk about the biggest conflict of interest ever.
So, before demanding action on Ukraine with emotional appeals, perhaps you should address the far more relevant issue: Why should anyone believe that your position is anything other than a continuation of the same war-profiteering playbook your family has long followed?
@wademiller@MSNBC I guess those who drafted the Mayflower Compact, Declaration of Independence & the Constitution of the United States were ALL CHRISTIAN NATIONALISTS...........what a tool!

This is one of the first things you MUST set right @realDonaldTrump . We didn't treat 9/11 terrorists in Gitmo like this. All Jan6r's must be set free if they are still in prison like this poor soul, and everyone that was 'convicted' must be pardoned. Restitutions to everyone and to the families of those WHO TOOK THEIR OWN LIVES AFTER BEING TORTURED AND LEFT HOPELESS. This is a travesty! A true travesty! This is worse than what they do in banana republics AND ALL THOSE THAT HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH WHAT HAPPENED HERE MUST BE BROUGHT UP ON CHARGES--TBD BY YOUR JUSTICE DEPT., MR. PRESIDENT! @PamBondi
@oregon_leader@Darlene93485061 This is a bad look for you sir, I established the @marioncogop handle in 2013 as Vice Chair of MCR, @DlorenDarnell (RIP) developed the branding. While you did some good work in your 2 years as Chairman, all of that...even the following you brought is intellectual property of MCR.
