The leak of the names of FBI agents who searched the Mar-a-Lago home was denounced by Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney.
The FBI searched Trump's home in Palm Beach, Florida, on August 8 and seized government documents. An "unprecedented" number of threats were received by the FBI.
During an interview that aired Sunday on ABC's "This Week," Cheney said Republicans continued "stoking the flames."
The former president of the United States stoking the flames of that instead of saying "We need to learn the facts" is dangerous. The evidence needs to be learned by us. Cheney told Jonathan Karl that they needed to learn what happened.
She said that they would attack the people for doing their job. I think that the American people are aware of the dangers of hypocrisy.
The Republicans spent a lot of time after the FBI agents who executed the search warrant.
When I found out that President Trump had released the names of the agents, I was disgusted. Cheney claimed that Trump was behind the release of the names of the agents.
The names of FBI agents involved in the search of Mar-a-Lago were included in an un redacted version of the search warrant that was published three days after the raid. The site was accused of sexual harassment.
Some people, including a national security lawyer and a CNN correspondent, suggested that Trump or someone close to him might have leaked the warrant.
"Liz Cheney just suffered one of the most devastating and embarrassing losses in political history, but it appears that hasn't stopped her from making up stories to stay relevant," said Trump's spokesman.
Representatives for Cheney didn't reply immediately.
