Former Rep. Liz Cheney plans to campaign with Vice President Kamala Harris on Thursday in Ripon, Wisconsin, the birthplace of the Republican Party, a campaign official told Axios.

Calling him an establishment hack, he worked to oust Cheney from Congress by a nearly 40-point margin.
Axios reported Harris/Cheney campaign events:
Driving news: According to campaign sources, Harris, who will give a speech at a school building considered to be the birthplace of the Republican Party, is expected to praise Cheney as a patriot who put the country before the party.

Harris is also expected to attack former President Donald Trump over his past comments calling for “abrogating” the U.S. Constitution.

Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on a partisan Jan. 6 committee and reportedly leaked information about former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, leading to Democratic votes in her 2022 re-election campaign. , increasing his net worth from an estimated $7 million at the time. He was first appointed in 2017 and could earn more than $44 million in 2020.
