President-elect Trump predicted there's "trouble" in sight for former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), after a recent report from House Republicans recommended a criminal investigation into the ex-lawmaker over her role in the House panel investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol.

“Liz Cheney could be in a lot of trouble based on the evidence obtained by the subcommittee, which states that 'numerous federal laws were likely broken by Liz Cheney, and these violations should be investigated by the FBI,'” Trump wrote in an early Wednesday morning post on Truth Social.

He also praised Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-La.), who chairs the Committee on House Administration's Subcommittee on Oversight.

His post came less than a day after the subcommittee released its 128-page interim report analyzing what Republicans called the “failures and politicization” of the House Jan. 6 committee, arguing the now-disbanded panel unjustly blamed Trump for the Capitol riot and that it was unlawfully formed.

“Speaker [Nancy] Pelosi’s multimillion-dollar Select Committee was a political weapon with a singular focus to deceive the public into blaming President Trump for the violence on January 6 and to tarnish the legacy of his first Presidency,” the report said. 

The committee also said that an FBI probe looking into Cheney should be completed. The former No. 3 House Republican was accused of witness tampering by being in contact with former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson. 

Cheney, one of Trump's most vocal critics since he lost the 2020 election, slammed the report for fabricating “lies” and “defamatory allegations.” 

“Chairman [Barry] Loudermilk’s (R-Ga.) ‘Interim Report’ intentionally disregards the truth and the Select Committee’s tremendous weight of evidence, and instead fabricates lies and defamatory allegations in an attempt to cover up what Donald Trump did,” Cheney said in a statement.

“Their allegations do not reflect a review of the actual evidence, and are a malicious and cowardly assault on the truth. No reputable lawyer, legislator or judge would take this seriously," she added.

GOP lawmakers also accused the Jan. 6 committee, chaired by Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.), of deleting evidence it gathered. Members of the panel have rebuked the attacks, however, saying they kept everything they were required to by law which was shared publicly on a government website.
