Thursday on Twitter, lifelong communist Sen. Bernie Sanders came to the defense of NeverTrump Republican Rep. Liz Cheney, calling the Republican Party an “anti-democratic cult.”

“Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) will likely be voted off the House Republican Leadership,” Bernie tweeted. “Her crime: acknowledging the reality that Trump lost the election. The Republican Party is no longer a ‘conservative” party.’ It is an anti-democratic cult pushing the Big Lie and conspiracy theories.”

Fact check: the Big Lie being pushed by leftists like Sanders is that Trump lost the 2020 election fair and square, and that anyone who questions this “reality,” including members of Congress, is a dangerous nut and domestic terrorist. This Big Lie is promoted eagerly by the leftist news media.

In fact, Cheney has received support from both Democrats and establishment Republicans following her Monday tweet in which she wrote, “The 2020 presidential election was not stolen. Anyone who claims it was is spreading THE BIG LIE, turning their back on the rule of law, and poisoning our democratic system.”

Fact check: the Democrats turned their back on the rule of law and poisoned our democratic system when they coordinated to commit massive voter fraud and then to cover it up by smearing their opponents as “anti-democratic” conspiracy cultists. If Liz Cheney is voted out, it will be because she has thrown in her lot with the totalitarians in power.
