I think she got run out because she was passing info to the other side. That would be people around Bush/Obama.
They probably caught her in a sting. Only thing I can think of for the reason she dug in, rather than go quietly, was she made a dare, ordered by Bush/Obama that she thought had teeth.
She got BTFO anyway, which is a good sign. Good guys didn't give a fuck about the dare.
Could be other side is being cut off, comms-wise. Thinking a Cheney sting was used to misdirect, and fucked the other guys up, judging by the screeching from the usual suspects.
If Cheney had any character she would switch parties. IMO. Staying pub means she's still going to tattle, and will get a "dominion" favor in 2022 for being a good troop.
