Long before anyone knew Mike Johnson would be the next Speaker, Liz Cheney had already singled him out as someone who would break any rule for Trump. Via CBS News:

Cheney's book also details the groundwork laid by Trump's allies in the weeks leading-up to January 6, including by a previously relatively-obscure Louisiana Congressman, Mike Johnson, who in October was elected Speaker of the House. "Mike and I were good friends," Cheney said. "But what I learned was that he was operating in a way that was dangerous. It was dangerous because what Mike was doing was taking steps that he knew to be wrong, doing things that he knew to have no basis in fact or law, or the Constitution. Mike was willing time and again to ignore the rulings of the courts, to ignore what state and federal courts had done and said about the elections in these states, in order to attempt to do Donald Trump's bidding."

Dickerson asked, "So, he was asserting not only facts for which he had no evidence, but which the courts had already ruled had no merit?"

"Right, exactly."

We asked Speaker Mike Johnson for comment. His office tells "Sunday Morning" Cheney's book "does not present an accurate portrayal of those events," and that he wishes her "the best."
