Representative Liz Cheney, a Wyoming Republican, accused House Minority Whip Representative Steve Scalise of being part of an "attack" on the U.S. after he declined repeatedly in a Sunday interview to say the 2020 election wasn't "stolen."

Trump and many of his Republican allies continue to baselessly claim that President Joe Biden won the presidential election through widespread voter fraud. During an interview with Fox News Sunday, Scalise was pressed multiple times by host Chris Wallace to answer whether he agreed with the extraordinary allegation, but the Louisiana Republican side-stepped and did not respond directly.
