Here we go… #January6thCommitteeHearings

Hutchinson has already appeared before the #January6thCommittee 3x

Wow, this is going to be good. Hutchinson has first hand knowledge on Trump’s conspiracy to overturn the election. #January6thCommitteeHearings

Hutchinson worked w both Scalise and Ted Cruz b4 working in the Trump WH.

She also acted as Meadows liaison on Capitol Hill.

Chairman Thompson did a good job laying the foundation for questioning demonstrating proximity to conspirators etc.

Rudy G front and center. Hutchinson demonstrates both Rudy and Meadows knew of Jan 6th violence beforehand.

Have a deposition starting at 3 so I’ll thread until about 2:30 if it goes beyond that. #January6thCommitteeHearings

“Dangerous repercussions” - strong testimony thus far from Hutchinson.

Secret Service made the WH aware of potential violence on the 6th. Hutchinson heard the words Oath Keepers and Proud Boys when Rudy G was around.

Hutchinson received call from NSA asking if DCS Ornato knew about potential violence on Jan 6th.

Secret Service also passed on reports of potential violence and weapons being present on Jan. 6th.

Incredible how many weapons equipment confiscated by Secret Service from those who went through the checkpoint.

Secret Service passed on reports of a man w an AR-15 at the ellipse. DCS and Meadows had a convo RE: weapons of all types. Turning flag poles into spears. Nuts.

Meadows didn’t appear to be surprised about weapons being present.

Hutchinson stated that Meadows did nothing RE: weapons being present at ellipse.

Hutchinson was backstage w Trump family during rally. Trump was mad that Sec Ser wasn’t allowing ppl in ellipse w weapons. That they weren’t there to hurt him. Yikes. #January6thCommitteeHearings

“They can march to the Capitol after the rally, take the f’ing mags away….” = seditious conspiracy.

Hutchinson had convos at ellipse w Ornato and Sec Ser stating Capitol doesn’t have enough personnel to defend it.

Hutchinson then went to notify Meadows. Meadows continually ignored her by shutting car door twice. After telling him, meadows had no reaction - seemingly expecting what occurred (more evidence - conspiracy).

Defining SPM and OTR - scheduled movements of POTUS vs off the record movement.

Hutchinson spoke w Cippilone on Jan 3 having Trump going to the Capitol on Jan 6. On Jan 6, Cippilone wanted Hutchinson to ensure Trump going to Capitol that day. - obstructing Justice and Congress - more crimes.

Tons of evidence demonstrating that Trump wanted to be at Capitol Hill on Jan 6th. More evidence of seditious conspiracy and obstruction of Congress.

NSC staff probably losing their mind in attempting to get Trump to Capitol Hill.

ML McCarthy called Hutchinson. Sounding pissed, McCarthy told her not to have Trump come to Capitol.

Secret Service informs Trump that they won’t allow him to go to the Capitol.Ornato met w Hutchinson in his office w leader of Trumps SS detail. Trump loses his mind about not being able to got to Capitol Hill. Trump attempts to grab steering wheel. Trump then attacks Bobby Angle

My God. I didn’t have Trump attacking his SS detail leader on my bingo card.

Trump blames Meadows for not being allowed to go to Capitol Hill.

Trump loses his mind again about AG report finding no evidence of voter fraud. Trump throws ketchup laden plate against wall.

Trump likes to throw dishes and flipping table cloths when he’s angry. What a child.

Looks like we’re taking a 10 min break. Wow, just wow. #January6thHearings

Hutchison is only 25 years old. Such courage in someone so young. She has drawn the line between Rudy G, Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, Meadows, and Trump for seditious conspiracy. Definitely same level testimony as @JohnWDean

And we’re back. Cheney putting Roger Stone in crosshairs.

Stone invoked 5th amendment b4 committee. So did Mike Flynn. Trump pardons Flynn and commuted Stones sentence.

Meadows spoke w Flynn and Stone on Jan 5th. War room at Willard Hotel. Meadows wanted to attend meetings w Rudy G at Hotel. Hutchinson states Meadows shouldn’t go.

Flynn takes fifth when asked if violence on Jan 6th was justified. Takes 5th to question if violence against the US is justified. Hutchinson approaches Meadows on Jan 6th around 2 pm. Asks if he spoke w Jim Jordan, said would give him a call.

Meadows said to Cippilone that he didn’t want to do anything about rioters penetrating the Capitol.

POTUS, Meadows, and Cippilone speaking about “Hang Mike Pence” chant. Trump doesn’t believe there’s anything wrong with the chant. #January6thHearings

“Mike deserves it.” Trump commenting on the “Hang Mike Pence” chant.

“We were watching the Capitol being defaced because of a lie.” #January6thHearings

“Let’s blame ANTIFA” - Meadows initially suggested with others.

Alright folks, have to start a deposition shortly. Follow @MuellerSheWrote for continue commentary. #January6thHearings
