When it was inconvenient for Cheney to be part of the executive branch, he suddenly became part of the legislative branch. So now how is he going to play the "executive privilege" card?

Well he isn't even part of the Legislative Branch if he no longer is in the Executive Branch because the; Vice President to be the President of the Senate, but have no vote, unless they be equally divided.
(Article 1 section 3 paragraph 4).
Being he is no longer Vice President, he can not claim "executive privilage", that is only applicable to {current} Executive Employees, But we've seen how that works with ex-employees.

Of course. That is the right thing to do.
