A report compiled by the House Administration Subcommittee on Oversight reveals new allegations that the January 6 Committee‘s star witness, Cassidy Hutchinson, lied to Congress. According to the report, an analysis by a handwriting expert contradicts Hutchinson’s testimony, in which she claims she wrote a note to President Donald J. Trump during the Capitol riots. Hutchinson testified in June 2022 that she had dictated the words of then-Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, suggesting a potential statement for the president to make.
“Anyone who entered the Capitol illegally without proper authority should leave immediately,” the note Hutchinson claims she wrote read, with the world “illegally” crossed out. Then-Representative Liz Cheney (R-WY)—a staunchly anti-Trump Republican-in-name-only who has endorsed Kamala Harris—displayed the note during Hutchinson’s testimony.
HANDWRITING ANALYSIS.
However, following Hutchinson’s testimony, White House attorney Eric Herschmann came forward and stated that he had, in fact, been the author of the note and not Hutchinson—directly contracting her testimony and undermining her claims regarding her presence and knowledge of conversations in the White House during the riots.
“This new evidence provided by an independent, Certified Questioned Document Examiner, not only contradicts Ms. Hutchinson’s numerous claims that she penned the note, but also exposes the Select Committee’s willingness to accept all her testimonies without corroboration or further investigation,” the Subcommittee on Oversight’s chairman, Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA), said in a statement.
Meanwhile, the handwriting analyst’s report reads: “Based on the documents submitted, the evidence supports my opinion that the handwriting that appears on the Questioned Document was written in the same hand as the exemplars.” The term “exemplars” refers to a handwriting sample submitted by Hirschmann.
A HISTORY OF LIES.
Hutchinson’s previous testimony has either been disproven or called into question. Her assertion that Trump lunged for the wheel in his presidential ‘Beast’ limousine on January 6 has been directly contradicted by Trump’s Secret Service driver. Additionally, Hutchinson’s recollections of Meadows accidentally consuming alcohol and claim that Russ Vought was a “faithful Mormon” have proven false and have been derided for their blatant inaccuracy.
Even her denial that she ever dated Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) has been shown as false, with The National Pulse obtaining screenshots of her late-night FaceTime calls with Gaetz and texts to friends bragging about their dates.
