On Monday, former President Trump raised concerns regarding the potential prosecution of former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson for her contested testimony regarding the events surrounding the actions of the former president toward his driver on January 6, 2021.
Our great Secret Service has totally CRUSHED Cassidy Hutchinson’s (who I barely knew) made up (FAKE!) stories about me roughing up Secret Service Agents from the back seat of the Beast (Limo),” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post Monday.
“Has she now changed her testimony? Will she be prosecuted for what she did and said? What about the Unselect J6 Committee,” he continued.
“They destroyed almost everything, including real evidence and findings. What’s going to happen with them – Serious crimes have been committed? he said, The Hill reported.
His comments come almost a week following the release of a new report by House Republicans on the Capitol attack of January 6, 2021.
This report, assembled by the oversight subpanel of the House Administration Committee, includes testimony from a former driver of Trump.
As per the report, the unnamed driver contradicted Hutchinson’s earlier testimony to the committee.
Hutchinson had claimed that she was informed that Trump had attempted to assume control of the vehicle and move towards the Capitol following his speech near the White House on January 6.
The driver told the committee, however, that Trump “never grabbed the steering wheel,” and he said he “didn’t see him … lunge to try to get into the front seat at all,” per the report.
