Witness tampering at Jan. 6 hearing? Cheney raises prospect
AP ^ | 07/13/2022 | Eric Tucker

In the latest Jan. 6 hearing, already standing out for its notable moments, Rep. Liz Cheney saved the most startling for last. In her closing remarks, the co-chair of the House investigating committee said the panel had learned that former President Donald Trump had recently tried to contact a witness whom “you have not yet seen in these hearings.” The witness apparently recognized the caller ID, and did not answer the phone, instead contacting a lawyer, who then told the committee. The committee in turn referred the matter to the Justice Department. Though much remains uncertain about the call, including its purpose and the intended recipient, the way it was described on Tuesday raised the prospect that Trump or someone close to him was hoping to shape witness testimony in the ongoing congressional hearings into the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the U.S. Capitol.

Someone on NewMax( I think it was Rob Schmitt or Eric Boling) said you can’t tell it’s President Trump calling, it doesn’t show his name or number.

The witness didn’t answer the call if there really was one hence he can not identify who the caller was. Nothingburger.

“notable moments” ? first sentence and its already false. No one cares about this nonsense and if I didn’t occasionally come to FR I wouldn’t even know it was still going on.

Laughable. How could they know what he wanted if they didn’t take the call. More than laughable, just stupid.

I know Eric Tucker from the AP is a miserable POS, but I have to wonder how much Liz Cheney is being paid to COMPLETELY trash her reputation?

This broad truly is a snake. It just shows that we should have never had anything to do with the Cheney’s or Bush’s.

More unsourced, unnamed hearsay. We are supposed to believe this?

You Democrats are making it so complicated, when you could just come out with the proof of Trump's wrongdoing. Why can't you just SAY IT? Can't find anyone willing to perjure himself on the Congressional Record?

Better yet, why doesn't Schiff just come out with the "indisputable proof" he had about Trump and Russia, Russia, Russia? That was several impeachments ago, but I'm sure he still has it. RIGHT?

This is fake news to the nth degree. The once esteemed AP has now become the propaganda arm of the Democrat party.
