Trump Left Out of Cheney's Final Farewell

Washington, D.C., USAFri Nov 21 2025
President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance won't be attending former Vice President Dick Cheney's funeral. This isn't just any funeral. It's happening at the National Cathedral in Washington, D. C. on Thursday morning. Usually, sitting presidents go to funerals of past presidents and vice presidents. But Trump and Cheney's family? They've had a rocky relationship lately. Why the cold shoulder? Well, Cheney's daughter, Liz Cheney, played a big role in investigating Trump's part in the January 6th Capitol attack. That didn't go down well with Trump. So, it's no surprise that Trump wasn't invited to say goodbye to Dick Cheney. But that's not all that's been happening in politics. There's a lot going on. For instance, some Democratic-led states are going after Big Oil in court. Meanwhile, NYC's new mayor, Mamdani, says he'll work with Trump to make life more affordable, even though they don't see eye to eye on many things. Trump has also been busy. He's called out six Democrats for telling troops to refuse unlawful orders, saying they're traitors who should be arrested. And he's been teasing Elon Musk at a recent forum, showing that their once-frosty relationship might be thawing. But let's not forget about the bigger picture. Politics is always changing. And with every new development, it's clear that the political landscape is far from simple. It's a mix of old rivalries, new alliances, and everything in between. So, while Trump might not be at Cheney's funeral, he's certainly making his presence felt in other ways.
