Jan 6th Committee

More Leaked Private Chats Destroy what’s left of Jan. 6th Committee’s Credibility

By Ryan Delarme, July 28, 2022

Earlier this month Vigilant News reported that leaked texts from Liz Cheney’s star witness Cassidy Hutchinson painted quite a different picture from the act she put on before Congress. Now, further private communications have been acquired by the Federalist.

After Hutchinson provided several since-debunked stories to congress, texts surfaced between the witness and a point of contact from the First Amendment Fund, a group that was started by the American Conservative Union for the purpose of helping Trump officials cover legal costs related to the politically motivated January 6 investigations.

In the text message, Hutchinson refers to the J6 Committee as “BS”:

The single screen capture was enough to raise a few eyebrows, but now the Federalist claim to have nearly 18 months’ worth of private chats between friends from the Trump Whitehouse, and one of them is Mark Meadows’ junior aide Cassidy Hutchinson.

During Hutchinson’s recent testimony before the committee, she claimed that she “still struggle[s] to work through the emotions” of Jan. 6. Yet, according to the Federalist, in one message sent three months after January 6th 2021, Hutchinson said “I would rather shoot myself dead into the Potomac than see marine one flying around this city without 45 again,”, a stark contrast to the production she put on before Congress.

The decidedly anti-Trump establishment media was quick to brand Hutchinson as a “show-stopping witness” whose testimony would echo through the halls of American history; which may still prove true, but likely not in the way that it was intended. The Intercept, for instance, tried to draw comparisons between Hutchinson and Alexander Buttler of Watergate fame.

Back in November of 2021, Cassidy Hutchinson was among the first to be subpoenaed by the select committee. In the following months, Hutchinson continually disparaged the highly politicized committee, often joking about the very same riot that she claimed left her emotionally scarred. According to the Federalist, six days after her subpoena Hutchinson referred to the J6 Committee as “phony”, and told a former colleague that her testimony would “have nothing to offer”.

“Other than a handful of irrelevant texts, I have literally no documents or anything they’re asking about,” one ex-White House staffer texted her.

“Same,” she wrote back.

In a group chat, a friend shared a tweet from another former White House colleague.

Hutchinson apparently praised the Tweet, saying “When we win again, we’re making her comms director Or press sec.”, on top of that, Hutchinson allegedly used the phrase “STOP THE STEAL” in December of 2020 in regards to efforts to contest the 2020 election.

The Federalist revealed more:

“By March, she was joking about placing a prominent image of Trump addressing his supporters from the White House Ellipse on Jan. 6 in the background of her Zoom-recorded deposition with the Select Committee. She also joked she might use an image from an infamous scene in the Oval Office where Vice President Mike Pence awkwardly sat between Nancy Pelosi and President Trump.”

Apparently, Hutchinson also had quite a different view of the Committee Vice Chair Liz Cheney and her cohorts than what was seen during the J6 production. In September, Hutchinson disparaged Cheney and Illinois Rep. Adam Kinzinger, the two Republicans hand-picked to serve on the committee by Pelosi, as a “crop of losers.”

“I think Liz being the ‘future of the GOP’ is a massive stretch,” Hutchinson wrote in one string of messages just two months before her appearance. “I think she does have the power to cement the anti-Trump, RINO movement and really capitalize off it on a national scale. She’ll never ever turn the tides in her favor. Ever.”

“Even if Trump were to fall off the face of the Earth, her neocon policies are not where the base’s ideological politics currently are nor will head,” she wrote. Still, she conceded that Cheney’s hatred of Trump had tremendous sway thanks to corporate media’s amplification and assistance. “But I do think this maneuver is by consequence ‘future-shifting’ for the GOP in that she does have the power of the media, the determination and the cut-throat mentality to capitalize off this.”

Less than one year later, Hutchinson embraced Cheney on live television after radically changing her story to match what Cheney and the corporate media desired.  

According to the Federalist piece:

Hutchinson claimed that CNN’s Jim Acosta contacted her and said to her, “Thank you for your bravery and courage. We and the American people look forward to learning more from your testimony.” Hutchinson said she had “about twenty snarky responses typed to respond back but just let it go … Like stop WARPING everything you [f——] [j—–] … and also I couldn’t give less of a [f—] what cnn thinks of me. Truly.”

Within weeks, Hutchinson would be basking in the glow of effusive praise from Acosta and other partisans at CNN, many of whom described her as more important than CNN contributor John Dean.

Hutchinson did not respond to this story by press time.

Steve Bannon to Testify Before the J6 Committee This Week

By Ryan Delarme, July 11, 2022

The Jan. 6th committee is set to resume hearings this Tuesday and Thursday. Tuesday’s hearing will specifically focus on “extremist groups” and their activities leading up to the event at the capitol.

Committee member Zoe Lofgren, a Democrat from California, told CNN:

“We are going to be connecting the dots during these hearings between these groups and those who were trying – in government circles – to overturn the election,”

The goal is to “connect the dots” between these civilian “extremist groups” and those in Trump’s circle (Bannon) who questioned the integrity of the election, something a large percent of the country is also questioning.

The committee hopes to demonstrate a clear link between Bannon and others from the Trump administration and such groups, particularly the Oath Keepers and the Proud Boys. 

Former Proud Boys spokesperson Jason Van Tatenhove is expected to testify, as he claims to have knowledge of the inner workings of the organization.

Most notable will be the testimony of former Whitehouse Strategist Steven K. Bannon, who notified the committee that he was willing to testify after President Trump waived executive privilege.

Bannon had previously refused to comply with committee subpoenas and was last year charged with two counts of contempt of Congress.

Bannon’s attorney Robert Costello said in a letter to the committee: 

“President Trump has decided that it would be in the best interests of the American people to waive executive privilege for Stephen K. Bannon, to allow Mr. Bannon to comply with the subpoena issued by your Committee,”

Bannon’s testimony is yet to be scheduled. The Justice Department lawyers who are litigating Bannon’s contempt of Congress charges seem to be skeptical of Bannon’s Motives. 

DOJ lawyers said in a court filing:

“His continued failure to comply with the subpoena’s document demand while claiming he now will testify suggests his actions are little more than an attempt to change the optics of his contempt,”

Bannon had previously argued that he did not have to comply with subpoenas after Trump invoked executive privilege, but federal prosecutors say that because Bannon was a private citizen at the time of the capitol riot, such privilege did not apply.

Leaked Text’s Show J6 Committee’s Own “Surprise Witness” Cassidy Hutchinson Called the Committee “BS”

By Ryan Delarme, July 4, 2022

A report from the Dailly Caller has shown that Cassidy Hutchinson, the J6 Committee’s star witness, once held opinions that stand in stark contrast to those displayed on national television during last week’s surprise hearing.

The Daily Caller report revealed that on February 1st, Hutchinson sent a text seeking help from the First Amendment Fund, a group that was started by the American Conservative Union for the purpose of helping Trump officials cover legal costs related to the politically motivated January 6 investigations.

Hutchinson did not end up receiving any support from the group despite her inquiries.

In the text message, Hutchinson says: “Hey (redacted)! This is Cassidy Hutchinson. Kind of a random question, but do you still work for the Schlapp’s at the ACU?” to which the redacted individual replied, “Hi, Yes!”

Hutchinson then said, “Do you happen to know a First Amendment fund POC I could reach out to? I was subpoenaed in early Nov., but the committee waited to serve me until last week (after Ben’s deposition).”

“I had to accept service because the U.S. Marshalls came to my apartment last Wednesday, but I haven’t made contact with the Committee. I’m just on a tight timeline and just trying to figure out what my options are to deal with this bs,” Hutchinson added.

Hutchinson, who is now the focus of the committee, was a former aide to White House chief of staff Mark Meadows. She released a new statement last week defending her highly-contested testimony.

“Ms. Hutchinson stands by all of the testimony she provided yesterday, under oath, to the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6 Attack on the United States Capitol,” Hutchinson’s counsel Jody Hunt and William Jordan said in a statement on CNN.

Hunt also responded on Twitter to claims that she lied, saying, “Ms. Hutchinson testified, under oath, and recounted what she was told. Those with knowledge of the episode also should testify under oath.”

Ms. Hutchinson testified, under oath, and recounted what she was told. Those with knowledge of the episode also should testify under oath. https://t.co/F69nuMH5oy

— Jody Hunt (@realJodyHunt) June 28, 2022

Vigilant News reported yesterday on at least nine instances of potentially false testimony, these claims have been either refuted or outright debunked.

Among the claims was a statement about an irate Donald Trump apparently grabbing the wheel of the SUV he was riding in and lunging at Secret Service agent Robert “Bobby” Engel when Engel told him that he would not go to the Capitol.

“I’m the f—ing president! Take me up to the Capitol now!” Trump allegedly shouted.

Hutchinson claims that she was told about the incident by Anthony Ornato, the White House’s deputy chief of operations for that day.

Secret Service Chief of Communications Anthony Guglielmi said in a statement that, 

“The Secret Service has been cooperating fully with the select committee since its inception in spring of 2021 and we will continue to do so by responding formally and on the record to the committee regarding new allegations that surfaced in yesterday’s testimony.”

Guglielmi told Politico that the committee did not ask the Secret Service personnel to reappear or answer questions in the ten days before interviewing Hutchinson at the Tuesday hearing.

CNN’s Shimon Prokupecz tweeted Tuesday that a “Secret Service official familiar with the matter told CNN that Tony Ornato denies telling Cassidy Hutchinson that the former president grabbed the steering wheel or an agent on his detail.”

🚨 A source close to the Secret Service tells me both Bobby Engel, the lead agent, and the presidential limousine/SUV driver are prepared to testify under oath that neither man was assaulted and that Mr. Trump never lunged for the steering wheel.

Though most of Hutchinson’s testimony has either been proven false or refuted directly by those involved in the events, the committee’s star witness continues to defend her lies. We will continue to watch the situation and report on any developments in regards to this ongoing story.

It’s All Bogus: How Surprise Witness Cassidy Hutchinson Completely Delegitimized the J6 Committee

By Ryan Delarme, July 3, 2022

Last Tuesday, Liz Cheney and the J6 Committee brought out their “surprise witness” Cassidy Hutchinson, a former junior staffer for Mark Meadows. 

The democrats and the establishment media billed this spectacle as an “explosive development”, which DID prove to be true, just not in the way that they had planned.

The grim union of the modern Democratic Party, the FBI, Big Tech, and the mainstream media have bent over backward to not only punish Donald Trump and his colleagues but to continue building on a year-and-a-half-long smear campaign meant to hurt the former President’s chances at a 2024 bid. 

Despite the efforts of these powerful, amalgamated interests, the January 6th Committee hearings have tanked in viewership and engagement. The hope was clearly to make this a big televised event, as they brought on Ex-ABC News exec James Goldston, the very same exec who squashed the Epstein story.

The Committee hearings, and everyone attached to them, were dealt a grievous credibility blow when they brought out surprise witness Cassidy Hutchinson on Tuesday morning. The young woman sat for testimony and proceeded to tell several lies while under oath before the committee.

Gateway Pundit put together a damning list of the false statements mentioned during Hutchinson’s testimony as well as the purported “truth” of each statement.

 

As per The Gateway Pundit: 

1.) Cassidy Hutchinson said President Trump attempted to grab the steering wheel of “the beast” and wrestle control from the Secret Service on January 6th.

Truth: President Trump was not in “the beast” on January 6th.

Truth: Secret Service agents willing to testify against this ridiculous lie by young Cassidy. It never happened.

2.) Cassiday Hutchinson said President Trump grabbed the neck area of Secret Service agent Bobby Engel.

Truth: Bobby Engel willing to testify this was a lie.

3.) Cassidy Hutchinson said President Trump broke dishes and flipped tablecloths on January 6th.

Truth: President Trump refutes the nonsensical claim.

4.) Cassidy Hutchinson claimed to have written a handwritten note on January 6th.

Truth: Former White House lawyer Eric Herschmann wrote the note and testified to this fact under oath previously before the committee.

5.) Cassidy Hutchinson said her boss Mark Meadows called Roger Stone on January 5th to find out what would play out the next day on January 6th.

Truth: Roger Stone has never spoken to Mark Meadows outside of a conversation they held in a green room in 2019.

6.) Cassidy Hutchinson said Mark Meadows spoke with General Flynn on January 5th.

Truth: General Flynn has never had a phone conversation with Mark Meadows.

7.) Cassidy Hutchinson said General Flynn and Roger Stone participated by phone in a briefing in the war room in the Willard Hotel with Mark Meadows on January 5th.

Truth: Did not happen. Stone and Flynn have not spoken with Meadows on the phone, ever.

8.) Cassidy Hutchinson said Jeffrey Clark met with Rudy Giuliani and Trump campaign at White House.

Truth: This is false. They’ve never met or communicated.

On March 7, 2022, former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson testified to @January6thCmte that former senior Justice Department official Jeff Clark strategized at White House with Giuliani and Trump campaign to object to election.

100% false.

They've never met or communicated. pic.twitter.com/9qjWq6KjtV

— 🇺🇸 Mike Davis 🇺🇸 (@mrddmia) June 29, 2022

9.) Cassidy Hutchinson testified that Trump’s White House counsel Pat Cipollone was at the White House on the morning of January 6, 2021.

Truth: Pat Cipollone was NOT at the White House on January 6.

EXCLUSIVE: Multiple sources tell @FDRLST Pat Cipollone wasn’t at the White House on the morning of Jan. 6 as Cassidy Hutchinson testified.

⁦@RepJimBanks⁩ is demanding DHS disclose White House surveillance logs to investigate claims. https://t.co/KpA61Z3CUd

— Tristan Justice (@JusticeTristan) July 1, 2022

Of course, Legacy Media is refusing to report on any of these glaring discrepancies, instead choosing to run with Hutchinson’s uncorroborated testimony as if it were cold hard fact.

J6 Hearings Yield Terrible Ratings Despite James Goldston’s Attempts to Turn the Sham Into Reality TV

By Ryan Delarme, June 11, 2022

Ryan DeLarme,
June 11th, 2022

The Jan. 6th Committee’s attempt to turn the hearings into some sort of Hollywood production is not only indicative of how propagandized this whole affair truly is, but it’s also causing viewers to tune out en masse.

The ratings are in and it’s a bust for the mainstream across the board. Cable news watch shared the ratings:

🚨🚨 Dems BS 1/6 hearings BOMB in the ratings!

8pm ET
ABC Attack on the Capitol 0.5 4.477
NBC January 6th Hearings 0.4 3.296
CBC Capitol Assault Hearings 0.3 3.335

9pm ET
ABC AOC 0.6 4.233
NBC Jan 6 0.4 3.331
CBS CAH 0.3 3.139

– @burackbobby_ @JoeConchaTV

— Cable News Watch (@CableNewsWatch) June 10, 2022

The Hill’s Joe Concha took the time to explain how bad the viewership really was.

Context: The evening newscasts on CBS, NBC & ABC average anywhere from 18 to 20 million viewers combined on a typical night. Those newscasts do not air in primetime. The January 6 hearings airing in primetime Thursday took in just 11+ million viewers on those three same networks. https://t.co/KcdsM5sx3Z

— Joe Concha (@JoeConchaTV) June 10, 2022

 

The monumental tanking comes despite the Committee bringing on Ex-ABC News exec James Goldston.

Goldston, who served as president of ABC News from 2014 until early 2021, has been working as an adviser to the House select committee and quietly producing the hearing. This included the use of a massive teleprompter, which wouldn’t be controversial if it weren’t an official congressional hearing.

Politicians on both sides of the aisle have long expressed that the Jan. 6 committee is a politically motivated attack. Proponents say it is a necessary examination of the events that led to the Capitol riot and a broader effort to overturn the 2020 presidential election.

Other commentators, such as YouTube personality Tim Pool, have claimed the events of May. 29th 2020, which actually saw an assault on the White House and the moving of the President to a secure bunker, was much more worthy of attention. 

“Here’s what I don’t understand,” Pool said, “why the Right isn’t marching in protest against all of the waves of destruction caused by Antifa, the 5-29-20 insurrection when leftists set fire and tried to raze St. John’s Church, when they set fire to a White House guard post, when they tried to break down the fence surrounding the White House and the President was forced into a bunker.”

How soon we forget when things aren’t given wall-to-wall coverage by the mainstream media.
