Dear Ms. Cheney,
I’m late to the conversation, but let’s add some much-needed context to your stance on Ukraine by looking at the legacy you come from.
Your father, Dick Cheney, had a long and influential political career:
📌 Received five draft deferments during the Vietnam War, citing “other priorities,” and never served in the military.
📌 Served in key government roles, including White House Chief of Staff (Ford), U.S. Representative (Wyoming), and Secretary of Defense (Bush Sr.).
📌 As Secretary of Defense, oversaw U.S. military interventions in Panama and Iraq (Desert Storm).
📌 Led Halliburton as chairman and CEO (1995–2000), a company that later secured massive defense contracts in war zones.
📌 As Vice President, was a principal advocate for the 2003 Iraq invasion, citing claims that proved to be false.
📌 Accumulated a net worth reportedly reaching $86 million largely due to Halliburton.
These are facts. Neither you nor your father served in the military, yet he played a leading role in sending Americans into war—many of whom returned disabled, traumatized, or never returned at all. He and you profited immensely from the war machine while veterans struggled for the benefits they earned.
Despite this, you now position yourself as a leading voice on Ukraine. Why should anyone take your stance seriously, given your personal and family history of benefiting from military conflicts? Talk about the biggest conflict of interest ever.
So, before demanding action on Ukraine with emotional appeals, perhaps you should address the far more relevant issue: Why should anyone believe that your position is anything other than a continuation of the same war-profiteering playbook your family has long followed?
