Wyoming voters have sunk U.S. Rep. Liz Cheney’s congressional career, but the anti-Trump Republican is already positioning herself for a presidential run — with a surprising amount of help from Hollywood liberals. Topping those donors are Jeffrey Katzenberg and his wife, Marilyn, who have already donated to two of Cheney’s Leadership PACs, according to Federal Election Commission filings.

But it didn’t just happen overnight. Last August, the couple together donated $21,600 to The Great Task PAC as Cheney began her ultimately futile fight for re-election. The PAC — which has raised nearly $1 million — was consolidated with Cheney’s campaign committee on election night, according to FEC records.
