- Former lawmaker Liz Cheney has settled for a professorship at the University of Virginia after dramatically losing Wyoming’s congressional seat in the primary by about 40 points.
- Cheney will be the professor of “practice” at the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia, Politico Playbook reported Wednesday afternoon.
- The center’s director, Larry Sabato, claimed, “Cheney serves as a model of political courage and leadership,” and that she has a “compelling message to students about integrity.”
- Cheney accepted the position after losing by about 40 points in 2022 to Rep. Harriet Hageman (R-WY), who ran a grassroots campaign in Wyoming while Cheney mostly remained in Washington, DC, driving the partisan January 6 Committee probe against former President Donald Trump.
