Do you recall Cassidy Hutchinson, the key witness who testified before the January 6 Committee? She served as a senior aide to Mark Meadows, the White House Chief of Staff during Trump’s presidency.

In her testimony to the committee, formally known as “The House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol,” Hutchinson made several sensational claims. Among them was the contentious assertion that Trump attempted to seize the steering wheel of his armored vehicle from a Secret Service agent, insisting on being driven back to the Capitol where his supporters had gathered.

However, there’s a notable issue: Hutchinson admitted to hearing this account second-hand, and the driver in question has refuted the claim, stating it never occurred.

Recently, The New York Times has reported that the Department of Justice is investigating Hutchinson for potential perjury. The publication’s coverage appears to reflect a critical stance on the matter.

It Didn’t Happen: Secret Service Driver Says Trump ‘Never Grabbed the Steering Wheel’ on Jan. 6

The January 6 Committee was a clown show with the hapless Rep. Bennie Johnson (MS-02) serving as chairman and the melodramatic, supposedly Republican former Reps. Liz Cheney (WY-AL) and Adam Kinzinger (IL-16) being the only GOP representatives. Kinzinger, knowing voters would reject him, retired in 2021, while Cheney got resoundingly defeated in the primary of her 2022 reelection bid.

Chief of the Department of Justice (DOJ) Civil Rights division Harmeet Dhillon, who, as we’ve reported, is under consideration for a promotion to Associate Attorney General, will reportedly take the reins of the investigation:

In an unorthodox move, leaders at the Justice Department did not offer [United States Attorney for the District of Columbia] Ms. [Jeanine] Pirro a chance to open an investigation into Ms. Hutchinson, but instead gave the case directly to Harmeet Dhillon, who runs the civil rights division, according to three of the people familiar with the matter. Ms. Dhillon, another Trump loyalist, has emerged as an effective advocate for the administration’s agenda, particularly as the department has targeted higher education institutions that the White House perceives as being “too woke.”

Note that the Times story is littered with words like “unusual” and “unorthodox,” as if the nation’s voters elected Trump as president because they were so happy with the way things were normally done in The Swamp.

🚨INVESTIGATION🚨

Her testimony alleged that Trump encouraged the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot and lunged at a Secret Service agent.  

The probe stems from a congressional referral accusing Hutchinson of lying to the January 6 committee.

The J6 Committee was a disgrace, and if anyone is held accountable, that would be a good thing in my book. I’d rather it were Cheney’s slithery maneuverings that were being investigated, but that doesn’t take away from the fact that Cassidy Hutchinson’s testimony didn’t pass the smell test, and she should answer for it.

Editor’s Note: The endless lawfare against Donald Trump was emblematic of the banana republic Biden regime.
