'In a lot of trouble': Trump lashes out at Liz Cheney in middle-of-the-night attack

In the very early hours of Wednesday, Donald Trump took to his Truth Social platform, attacking ex-Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) and doubling down on his threat to see her prosecuted for opposing him.

On Tuesday the former GOP House member pushed back at a report released by MAGA Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) defending the president-elect over his part in the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol that led to a House elect committee investigation.

As part of that report, the Georgia Republican suggested Cheney should be investigated by FBI, soon to have a new hand-picked director after Trump assumes power in January.

In a statement, Loudermilk claimed, "It wasn’t to say one side was right, one side was wrong. It was to get to the facts of what really happened. Because you can’t fix a problem until you get to the root of the problem.”

Cheney responded, "The January 6th Committee's hearings and report featured scores of Republican witnesses, including many of the most senior officials from Trump's own White House, campaign and Administration ... The Department of Justice conducted its own independent investigation and reached the same fundamental conclusions."

At approximately 2:30 AM ET, on Wednesday, Trump signaled his belief that Cheney should be investigated.

"Liz Cheney could be in a lot of trouble based on the evidence obtained by the subcommittee, which states that 'numerous federal laws were likely broken by Liz Cheney, and these violations should be investigated by the FBI.' Thank you to Congressman Barry Loudermilk on a job well done. Newsmax, by Greg Kelly," he wrote on Truth Social.
