Fmr Meadows Aide Makes Never-Before-Heard Claims Before Jan. 6 Committee

-

Modern-Day Fawn Hall

Cassidy Hutchinson, the former chief assistant to ex-White House Chief of Staff , has concluded testifying before the House select committee investigating the .

Hutchinson's testimony before a hushed audience in the Longworth House Office Building made her the first Trump White House employee to publicly meet with the committee.

She started by claiming that, despite fears from within the White House that Jan. 6 could turn violent, former President only expressed alarm and indignation that day after it became clear his Stop the Steal rally had not reached capacity.

Answering questions from committee Vice Chair (R-Wyo.), Hutchinson said that Trump and Meadows received warnings from the before the rally that a number of the president's supporters had brought a variety of weapons, from AR-15s to sharpened flagpoles, with them. 

Despite this, Hutchinson claimed that Trump urged his security detail to remove the metal detectors that the crowd at the Ellipse on the National Mall had to go through so that the crowd size might meet his expectations.

Hutchinson testified, “I was in the vicinity of a conversation where I overheard the president say something to the effect of, ‘I don't f***ing care that they have weapons. They're not here to hurt me. Take the f***ing mags away.'”

Later, Hutchinson said Trump lunged at the head of his security detail and tried gaining control of the presidential limo after being told it wasn't safe to go to the Capitol.

Robert Engel, the special agent in charge on Jan. 6, 2021, had already testified before the committee.

Hutchinson proceeded to describe a discussion she claimed to have overheard between White House counsel Pat Cipollone, Meadows and Trump over the “hang Mike Pence” chats echoing that afternoon through the Capitol Building.

Per Hutchinson, Meadows allegedly said Trump replied that Pence “deserved it” when advisers told the president that rioters had called for executing Pence.

Cheney declared that Trump's response explained his alleged resistance to sending help as rioters defaced the Capitol Building.

Hutchinson testified that the White House had broken into three factions by the afternoon of Jan. 6, starting with the White House counsel's office and Ivanka Trump. That moderate bloc wanted the former president to tell the rioters to go home peacefully and condemn the violence.

Another group took a more neutral stance.

The last group, which supposedly included Meadows, allegedly sought to deflect blame from Trump and erroneously blame Antifa for violence perpetrated by rioters.

Hutchinson told the panel members that Trump could never bring himself to condemn the attack.

She also claimed that Meadows sought a presidential pardon after the events of that day.

While Hutchinson's testimony moved critics of the former administration and members of the legacy , others were more skeptical.

One prominent conservative, speaking on the condition of anonymity, compared Hutchinson to Fawn Hall. Hall served as Lt. Col. Oliver North's secretary during the Iran Contra affair. 

Hall received immunity from prosecution in exchange for two days of testimony in front of (where she admitted to shredding thousands of incriminating documents).

At least one prominent member of the Trump White House publicly disagrees.

Following Hutchinson's testimony, Rep. Cheney said the following in a closing statement: 

I want all Americans to know that what Ms. Hutchinson has done today is not easy. The easy course is to hide from the spotlight, to refuse to come forward, to attempt to downplay or deny what happened.

Following Cheney's remarks, Chair Bennie Hill (D-Miss.) reiterated his thanks for Hutchinson's service. He further stated that the committee's doors remained open to all potential witnesses, including anyone who had previously testified.

  1. More lies:
    Trump wanted 20K NG forces on duty BUT Pelosi said NO
    He was trying to tamp down protests
    Rigged evidence

    • Love how they don’t say Trump could NOT send in the NG without Piglosi’s request. Isn’t it convenient that she has bombshell testimony when the lefties found a new attorney for her. She’s nothing but a liar. Bet she got a big paycheck from the lunies (Soros)!

    • Yes, Stephen, this witness was well schooled (and probably well paid) to give this “evidence” to the rigged committee. Will we ever hear the truth from a biased, dishonest committee of democrats? I agree that DJT has thin skin and cannot help his mouth from opening when closing would be the smart thing to do. But this Jan 6th commission has shown how desperately the dems want to be rid of Trump. There are those of us who wish he would not run in 2024 because he cannot drop his obsession with 2020; but he would be great behind the scenes at leading the party, given a candidate who does not harbor rancor.

      • “drop his obsession with 2020 — If you went through all the BS Trump went through while in office and then to have an election literally ridiculously taken away from you — I doubt you would want to just get over it either and I don’t know a thing about you. This country will “FOREVER” have a black cloud hanging over it and we will “NEVER” move forward if that political crime of our history is not rectified and overturned. I hear people say we just have to move on — that is crap— we can’t move on without justice regardless of what any of you “get past it” think !!!!!!!

      • It seems to me that this is another he said she said and a person somehow happened to walk by and over hear the conversation! if it were true she would have spit the the information first thing . Why is it when The Democrats are unable to peddle their crap anymore there suddenly is someone that heard the conversation? sure it’s all bs and made up and shortly after her testimony she will probably disappear

  2. Hutchinson reads like, she wants her 15 minutes of fame. No one was arrested at the Capitol fiasco with an AR-15.

  3. The Senate Sergeant-At-Arms should be testifying because he has previously said it seemed like “the riots were fueled by professional agitators.”

    But wait, he can’t testify… he died suddenly last night.

  4. Well Lets see, Adam Shift and Pilosi are leading this kangaroo court so my belief is down to %50. She is repeating what she heard, which is non admissable in a regular court, more last minute hearsay… belief down to %30. Dems are doing badly in the polls.. down to %15. Peculiar her testimony is on the same day and almost same hours the polls open in many states… believe it by %10. It’s a known fact Trump gave authority for the NG. Why would he have called for the National Guard if his plans were to cut loose little green men? Belief probability… %5

    • Just got news the former Sargent at arms of the capital on Jan 6 has mysteriously died. Belief probability….. %1

    • This is a campaign to erase Trump and his family and his family’s family from the history books like all good communists and fascists have always done throughout history.

  5. I am so sick of the Leftists’ 5 plus year never ending, nearly continuous pursuit of President Trump that I do not care what they think they have found out. They can all pound sand for all I care. FJB!

  6. In her testimony, she said President Trump was doing everything he could to get to the demonstrations. He either thought it was peaceful or needed to get there to make it peaceful. He would not have gone there if he thought anyone’s life was in danger – including his own or the unarmed woman who was shot and killed.

  7. Let me present this, how would the president try to take over the wheel from the back seat with a divider in between. Just another rino wanting to be famous. This whole fiasco is nothing but BULL. The demorats are dulusional and will tell you next that a space alien will tell you it saw the whole thing.

  8. trump was a wimp. He should have ordered that Pelosi and Shumer be arrested and declared himself President for life. trump wimped out

  9. Liz Chaney conveniently left out the word “peaceful” which was in a quoted statement made by Trump at the January 6th gathering !
    She skipped over the word in asking about what was supposedly said —

  10. Well hear say does not travel far in my book. Most of her statements were based on what some else stated she never heard actual conversations only what she thought she heard.
    Trump ask for pelosi to bring in more enforcement several times and never condoned violence.
    Just another cute woman trying to make a name for herself that is my opinion. The left just can’t get a winner Trump out of their stupid brains. Liz is a real piece of work along with the other fruitless idiots on that committee. Hear say is not proof .

    • I don’t believe a word that come out of her mouth. I wonder if all of these people have never read their Bible, and don’t know the lies will be with them after death and they will pay the eternal price.

  11. Check her bank accounts — even the hidden ones. She sounds just like one of mueller’s side steppin,two steppin,back steppin — he said/she said– just tell me what to say. But in the end just like mueller and the POS schiff — they have nothing of substance and this female needs to spend some time behind bars.

  12. I don’t really believe anything this woman says. I believe the left paid her to say these things. They are so crooked; they would do anything to get rid of Trump. They knew they were not getting anywhere with their funny farm January 6 hearing. This has all been rigged and it is back firing on the left. Why don’t they take care of real business, and they wouldn’t have time for stupid charges?

  13. Headline needs to say “WH staffer lies under oath to illegitimate 1/6 HR kangaroo court”. Secret Service agent mentioned by name an others involved will swear under oath that this millennial loon lied.

  14. y—o news just keeps spreading misinformation in the hopes that their Dem buddies are gonna get reelected. If they’re telling you it’s a big election lie, YOU KNOW IT’S NOT AND TRUE!! The Donald was right, AGAIN!!!!!!

  15. She is obviously lying and what’s missing from this story is the fact that within minutes of her “blockbuster” testimony the agents in question communicated either directly or through lawyers/spokespeople that nothing of the kind was either said or done. She obviously has no knowledge of the Presidential Limo “The Beast” and it’s design. The President or any other occupant in the rear cannot reach for the steering wheel. I swear you can’t make up the kind of stupid these people are. Do they ever think anything through? Her “testimony” is nothing but hearsay and the people she supposedly heard it from deny it. Kavanaugh hearings ring a bell? If insanity can be exemplified by doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result, then all Democrats and Rinos are clinically insane.

  16. Wow!….. never before heard claims?.. That in itself is highly suspicious! Maybe tomorrow we will get new claims….?

  17. Such a pathetic liar. Trump offered Pelousy National Guard troops more than once but the deviant didn’t want then because she KNEW the setup was theirs and didn’t want any interference with their scam.
