Liz Cheney Awarded Presidential Citizens Medal Amidst Partisan Divides
Former congressional representative Liz Cheney recently received the Presidential Citizens Medal, the second highest civilian award in the United States. The medal was awarded by President Joe Biden in a ceremony filled with applause and gratitude for her dedication to American democracy, particularly her role in the January 6 House Committee.
Cheney has become a polarizing figure in the political landscape, especially among Republicans. At the award ceremony, President Biden praised her for placing "the American people over party," a sentiment that sparked mixed reactions among GOP members and conservative commentators.
