Faun it appears IF you don’t kiss Trumps ass your an Asshole
Correll continues to defend Trump who knowingly wanted on January 6 to join, physically, as in be in the presence of, his fully armed, spears and brass knuckled armed, and unarmed mob to march to the Capitol to disrupt the proceeding because MIKE Pence was not going to follow his demand to recognize the fake Trump electors and throw out the real electors from Arizona Michigan Nevada Georgia, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin i and New Mexico.
The Select Committee has learned about reports from outside the magnetometers and has obtained police radio transmissions identifying individuals with firearms, including AR-15s near The Ellipse. On the morning of January 6th.
Speaker 3: (26:47)
There’s an individual who is in a tree, it’s going to be a white male about six feet tall, thin build, brown cowboy boots. He’s got blue jeans and a blue jean jacket, and underneath the blue Jean jacket, complainants both saw stock with AR-15. He’s going to be with a group of individuals about 5 to 8 other individuals. Two of the individuals in that group at the base of the tree near the port of potties were wearing green fatigues, green olive dress styles, about 5′ 8″, 5′ 9″; skinny, white males, brown cowboy boots. They had Glock-style pistols in their waistbands.
Speaker 2: (27:25)
8736 with the message, that subject’s weapon on his right hip. Copy that. He is in the tree.
Speaker 4: (27:34)
Motor One, make sure PPD knows they have an elevated threat in the trees, south side of Constitution Avenue. Look for the Don’t Tread on Me flag, American flag, face mask, cowboy boots, weapon on the right side hip.
Speaker 5: (27:49)
I’ve got three men walking down the street in fatigues, one carrying an AR-15. Copy at 14th and Independence.
Liz Cheney: (28:02)
AR-15s at 14th and Independence. As you saw in those emails, the first report that we showed we now know was sent in the 8:00 hour on January 6th. This talked about people in the crowd wearing ballistic helmets and body armor, carrying radio equipment and military-grade backpacks. The second report we showed you on the screen was sent by the Secret Service in the 11:00 AM hour, and it addressed reports of a man with a rifle near the ellipse. Ms. Hutchinson, in prior testimony, you described for us a meeting in the White House around 10:00 AM in the morning of January 6th involving Chief of Staff Meadows and Tony Ornato. Were you in that meeting?
Cassidy Hutchinson: (28:42)
I was.
Liz Cheney: (28:44)
Let’s listen to your testimony about that meeting and then we’ll have some questions.
Speaker 1: (28:49)
I think the last time we talked, you mentioned that some of the weapons that people had at the rally included flag poles, oversized sticks, or flag poles, bear spray-
Male Interviewer: (29:03)
Sticks or flag poles, bear spray. Is there anything else that you recall hearing about that the people who would gather on the Ellipse had?

Cassidy Hutchinson: (29:10)
I recall Tony and I having a conversation with Mark probably around 10:00 AM, 10:15 AM. Where I remember Tony mentioning knives, guns in the form of pistols and rifles, bear spray, body armor, spears, and flag poles. Spears were one item, flag poles were one item. And then, Tony had relayed to me something to the effect of, and these, I think people are fastening spears onto the ends of flag poles.
Liz Cheney: (29:45)
Ms Hutchinson, here’s a clip of your testimony regarding Mr. Meadow’s response to learning that the rally attendees were armed that day.
Female Interviewer: (29:55)
What was Mark’s reaction, Mr Meadows’ reaction to this list of weapons that people had in the crowd?
Cassidy Hutchinson: (30:03)
When Tony and I went in to talk to Mark that morning, Mark was sitting on his couch and on his phone, which was something typical. And I remember Tony just got right into it, he was like, “Sir, I just want to let you know”, and informed him, “This is how many people we have outside the mags right now. These are the weapons that were known to have.” It’s possible he listed more weapons off that I just don’t recall, and gave him a brief, but in concise explanation, but also fairly thorough. And I remember distinctly Mark, not looking up from his phone. And I remember Tony finishing his explanation and it taking a few seconds for Mark to say something, to the point where I almost said, “Mark, did you hear him?”
Cassidy Hutchinson: (30:52)
And then Mark chimed was like, “All right. Anything else?” Still looking down at his phone. And Tony looked at me and I looked at Tony and Tony said, “No, sir, do you have any questions?” He’s like, “What are you hearing?” And I looked at Tony and I was like, “Sir, he just told you about what was happening down at the rallies.” And he was like, “Yeah, I know.” And then he looked up and said, “Have you talked to the president?” And Tony said, “Yes, sir. He’s aware too.” He said, “All right, good.”
Female Interviewer: (31:21)
He asked Tony if Tony had informed the president.
Cassidy Hutchinson: (31:24)
Yes.
Why Female Interviewer: (31:24)
And Tony said, yes, he had.
Liz Cheney: (31:28)
So Ms Hutchinson, is it your understanding that Mr Ornato told the president about weapons at the rally on the morning of January 6th?
Cassidy Hutchinson: (31:35)
That’s what Mr Ornato relayed to me.
Liz Cheney: (31:39)
And here’s how you characterize Mr Meadows’ general response, when people raised concerns about what could happen on January 6th.
Male Interviewer: (31:49)
So at the time, in the days leading up to the 6th, there were lots of public reports about how things might go bad on the 6th, and even the potential for violence. If I’m hearing you correctly, what stands out to you is that Mr Meadows did not share those concerns or at least did not act on those concerns.
Cassidy Hutchinson: (32:07)
Did not act on those concerns would be accurate.
Male Interviewer: (32:12)
Okay. But other people raise him to him. In this exchange, you mentioned that Mr Ornato pulled him aside.
Cassidy Hutchinson: (32:17)
That’s correct.
Liz Cheney: (32:20)
Ms Hutchinson, we’re going to show now an exchange of texts between you and Deputy Chief of Staff Ornato, and these text messages were exchanged while you were at the Ellipse. In one text you write, “But the crowd looks good from this vantage point. As long as we get the shot, he was effing furious.” And the text messages also stress that President Trump kept mentioning the OTR, an off-the-record movement. We’re going to come back and ask you about that in a minute, but could you tell us, first of all, who it is in the text, who was furious
Cassidy Hutchinson: (32:58)
The he in that text that I was referring to, was the president.
Liz Cheney: (33:02)
And why was he furious, Ms Hutchinson?
Cassidy Hutchinson: (33:05)
He was furious because he wanted the arena that we had on the Ellipse to be maxed out capacity for all attendees. The advance team had relayed to him that the mags were free flowing. Everybody who wanted to come in, had already come in, but he still was angry about the extra space and wanted more people to come in.
Liz Cheney: (33:28)
And did you go to the rally in the presidential motorcade?
Cassidy Hutchinson: (33:32)
I was there yes, in the motorcade.
Liz Cheney: (33:35)
And were you backstage with the president and other members of his staff and family?
Cassidy Hutchinson: (33:40)
I was.
Liz Cheney: (33:42)
And you told us, Ms Hutchinson, about particular comments that you heard while you were in the tent area.
Cassidy Hutchinson: (33:52)
When we were in the offstage announce area tent behind the stage, he was very concerned about the shot, meaning the photograph that we would get because the rally space wasn’t full. One of the reasons, which I previously stated, was because he wanted it to be full and for people to not feel excluded because they’d come far to watch him at the rally. And he felt the mags were at fault for not letting everybody in, but another leading reason and likely the primary reason is because he wanted it full. And he was angry that we weren’t letting people through the mags with weapons. What the secret service deemed as weapons and are weapons, but when we were in the offstage announce tent, I was part of a conversation… 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, let my people in. They can March the capital from here. Let the people in, take the f’ing mags away.”
Liz Cheney: (35:01)
Just to be clear, Ms Hutchinson, is it your understanding that the president wanted to take the Mags away and said that the armed individuals were not there to hurt him?
Cassidy Hutchinson: (35:11)
That’s a fair assessment.
