On June 25, 1973, former White House counsel John Dean shocked the country with his testimony to a Senate committee revealing President Richard M. Nixon’s complicity in the Watergate coverup. He recalled “telling the president that there was a cancer growing on the presidency and that if the cancer was not removed that the President himself would be killed by it.” He thereby set in motion the process that led to Nixon’s downfall a little more than a year later.
It has taken 49 years, almost to the day, but on Tuesday afternoon we finally heard congressional testimony about presidential misconduct whose shock value might rival Dean’s. The question now is whether the Republican Party will finally realize that former president Donald Trump is not fit to hold office — that, indeed, our democracy might not survive another Trump term. Or will the GOP shrug this off, as they have every other Trump scandal, as a trivial distraction from what they regard as far more important issues, such as the price of gasoline? Cassidy Hutchinson, who worked as an aide to then-White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, electrified a television audience, Dean-style, with her firsthand account of Trump’s actions in the weeks leading up to Jan. 6, 2021, and on that infamous day itself. There were too many jaw-dropping moments to count. She described how Trump was so angry at then-Attorney General William P.

Smoking gun??? More like a steaming pile.
She gave us the smoking gun the shows the J6 Committee is a criminal conspiracy?
🐄💩.
“Smoking gun”?
No.
Steaming pile.
Smoking gun that proves what crime exactly?
The crime is, Max Boot is allowed to exist.
Bob Woodward said,
“I’m sure that this committee has talked to those secret service agents, wouldn’t put this testimony on without having back up on it.”

senile CIA punkboy Boob Woodward weighs in...
Well! See? There ya go. One more anti Trumper based on personal taste, not policy! I like the list of 1000 Trump achievements. Read THAT to your anti Trumper friend. Then ask them catsup or oil? Which is more important to you?
The wench he’s referring to has been completely discredited in every way.”
She has only been discredited with thinking people. With Democrats, Leftists, media, Rhinos and others with TDS, there is nothing negative about Trump, no matter how far fetched, that they won’t believe. Max Boot is a perfect example of those vile, unethical people.
Did they bother to question the Secret Squirrel Agents who this supposedly happened to?
Don’t they think that would have been an important first step before broadcasting this to the planet?
The only thing Cassidy Hutchinson just gave was a performance and not good at remembering her lines.
Hollywood still not excepting her calls.
