The Role of Liz Cheney and Political Influences
The report also sheds light on a commentary piece published by The Washington Post on January 3, 2021, signed by all ten living former defense secretaries. This op-ed, which urged Miller to refrain from any actions that might appear political, was reportedly orchestrated by then-Rep. Liz Cheney. Her father, former Vice President Dick Cheney, was among the co-authors.
According to the report, this op-ed played a significant role in shaping Miller’s decision-making, which was influenced by fears of being labeled a “Trump crony.” Miller admitted as much, telling investigators:
“Then you had this constant drumbeat of… I was a stuffed suit that I was a Trump crony that was going to use the United States Military to conduct a military coup… So that is what was out there in the Twitter sphere.”
Pelosi’s Committee Under Fire
The findings of the report paint a damning picture of the January 6 Select Committee, led by then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi. It accuses the committee of failing to investigate critical elements of the day’s events and instead focusing on a narrative that cast Trump as the primary villain.
Liz Cheney, one of the two Republican members on the committee, is heavily criticized for her role. According to the report, Cheney’s actions contributed to the conditions that allowed the Capitol incursion to unfold.
A Twisted Narrative
The new findings cast doubt on the narrative pushed by Democrats and the media, which dominated public discourse leading into the 2022 midterm elections. The report suggests that a security vacuum, caused by Miller’s refusal to deploy military forces as directed by Trump, was a key factor in the day’s chaos.
For years, Americans were inundated with dramatic presentations from the January 6 Committee, bolstered by a willing media. These narratives likely influenced public opinion and may have helped Democrats limit Republican gains in the midterms.

What Happens Next?
With Congress set to certify the results of Trump’s 2024 election victory and his historic inauguration scheduled for January 20, the question now becomes: where does this revelation lead? Will the media and political establishment confront these findings, or will the narrative continue to be shaped by omission and bias?
This report not only calls into question the actions of individuals like Christopher Miller and Liz Cheney but also highlights the broader failings of a politicized process that sought to rewrite the events of January 6. As the nation braces for a new chapter, this revelation serves as a stark reminder of how critical it is to examine all perspectives before forming conclusions.
