A Republican congressman has denied accusations from former colleague Liz Cheney that he referred to former President Donald Trump as “Orange Jesus."

Former Wyoming Republican Rep. Liz Cheney wrote in her new book, Oath and Honor, that Rep. Mark Green (R-TN) used the nickname while he was lined up to sign a sheet objecting to the electoral votes for the 2020 election, according to an extract shared with CNN.

“Among them was Republican Congressman Mark Green of Tennessee,” Cheney wrote. “As he moved down the line, signing his name to the pieces of paper, Green said sheepishly to no one in particular, ‘The things we do for the Orange Jesus.’”

Green’s office, however, denied the accusation in a statement to the Washington Examiner.

"Liz Cheney’s accusation is false. She and her publishers would know this had they reached out to Rep. Green or his office," a spokesman for Green told the Washington Examiner. "There was a large crowd in the cloak room that day and Congressman Green unequivocally denies making this comment."

Cheney, a vocal Trump critic who sat on the House Jan. 6 select committee, also used her book to criticize former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) for saying one thing about the 2020 election behind closed doors while making different claims publicly. She claimed that McCarthy, who was House minority leader at the time, had talked to Trump days after the election, and he had acknowledged he lost the race.

“He knows it’s over,” McCarthy said, according to Cheney's book. “He needs to go through all the stages of grief.”

She said he went on Fox News later that day and claimed Trump had won the election.

Other claims from the former congresswoman in her book include the revelation that McCarthy told her he was visiting Trump at Mar-a-Lago in January 2021 because the former president was "depressed" and "not eating."
