I did a search on this.

Hutchinson proceeded to detail warnings about weapons in Trump’s Jan. 6 crowd. She said White House Deputy Chief of Staff Anthony Ornato reported the morning of Jan. 6 — around 10 or 10:15 a.m. — that people had “knives, guns in the form of pistols and rifles, bear spray, body armor, spears and flagpoles,” with people “fastening spears on to the ends of flagpoles.” She said Ornato informed Meadows of this. She also said Ornato told her that he had informed Trump himself of it.

Rather than worrying about that, she said, Trump actually wanted people attending his rally not to have to go through magnetometers. She said he said he was worried about how large the crowd was — a long-standing preoccupation of Trump. The former president said he wasn’t worried about weapons because these were “my people,” Hutchinson testified.

That’s Trump advocating sending people to the Capitol in virtually the same breath as him talking about them having weapons.

To the extent Trump can defend this conduct, it would seem that defense would be: He just wanted more people at his rally, and he perhaps worried less about weapons wielded by those marching to the Capitol because lawmakers would be inside, unlike himself.

I call BS. If all these people had all these weapons, why wasn’t there that many weapons charges? Was she a direct witness to what Trump said and thought?

Looks like she wants to be famous.
