Rep. Liz Cheney on Sunday agreed with Chuck Todd on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that the use of chemical weapons should be a “red line” for NATO to intervene in Ukraine.

“I think that we in the West, the United States and NATO — we need to stop telling the Russians what we won't do,” Cheney (R-Wyo.) said. “We need to be very clear that we are considering all options, that the use of chemical weapons is certainly something that would alter our calculations.”

Russian forces have bombed schools, hospitals and other civilian centers within the four weeks of their assault on Ukraine. Now, global leaders are concerned Russia is about to employ the use of chemical weapons.

Earlier in the month, Russia accused Ukraine of harboring chemical weapons, which U.S. officials believe to be a “false-flag” strategy to give Russia justification to use its own chemical or biological weaponry.

The term “red line” was also used by then-President Barack Obama in 2013. Obama had threatened airstrikes against Syrian government forces as a consequence for using chemical weapons. In that situation, Russian leader Vladimir Putin offered to force close ally Syrian President Bashar Assad to surrender his chemical arsenal if Obama promised not to bomb.

Trump's no longer President.  That "red line" was most likely drawn with a pink eyeliner pencil.

Sorry Cheney, you don't get to make red lines or decide what happens if they are crossed. Only a warmongering Cheney would want WWIII and the death and destruction involved.......just to make a buck. She acts as if she would be presidential candidate, if anyone would ever choose her, leaving the biggest question of for which party?

IF we make it to the '24 elections, I have no doubt that Cheney, Mittens and other GOPe/RINO's will be contending for the presidential nomination.  IF one of them gets the nomination, I won't be voting.  Why should I be voting for someone that doesn't represent a positive path forward for this country?  More of the same from the political elite club.

Exactly. I found her comment of chemical weapons alarming; she's the one that brought that issue up, especially since it has been 'rumored' that the U.S. has bio labs over in Ukraine (just ask Hunter and Joe).

Cheney has no authority or power to 'get us into war'.
This is only one single person's opinion.
And America would not be the first on the field anyway.
If chemical weapons are used in continental Europe, there are many players who would be much, much, much, more concerned about it than America. We have to accept the new American (semi-Third World) status under Biden. Nobody gives a shit what America thinks. Hell man, Biden or his clown-car staff can't even get anyone to take their calls.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

I see no red line with Biden as POTUS.  Putin and Xi both completely own his traitorous *ss.  His bribe machine, the family business, has compromised this POS more than any prior politician in our history.
