'Multiple colleagues had raised concerns with the speaker’s office about the potential for public disclosure of ‘sexual texts from members who were trying to engage in sexual favors’ with Hutchinson...'
Last month, Breitbart News reported that House Speaker Mike Johnson blocked GOP investigators from subpoenaing Cassidy Hutchinson, who was the Democrat-controlled January 6th Commission’s “star witness” in the wake of Jan. 6, 2021.
At the time, it wasn’t clear why Johnson was protecting Hutchinson, who was caught changing her testimony during the course of the Jan. 6 Committee hearings. On Thursday, the Washington Post revealed what may have motivated Johnson.
According to the Post, an aide to Johnson blocked the subpoena to prevent the release of sexually explicit texts that lawmakers sent Hutchinson.
“Multiple colleagues had raised concerns with the speaker’s office about the potential for public disclosure of ‘sexual texts from members who were trying to engage in sexual favors’ with Hutchinson,” the Post reported Thursday. Separately, a member of Johnson’s staff [said] that Hutchinson could ‘potentially reveal embarrassing information.’”
Johnson has launched another investigation into Jan. 6 for the new Congress, which will be headed by Rep. Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., who uncovered numerous damning facts about the politicized J6 Commission over the last two years.
An investigation into Hutchinson also implicates that then-January 6th Commission Vice Chair Liz Cheney, who secretly communicated with her during the proceedings, and may have pressured her to fire her attorney.
Loudermilk and the Oversight Subcommittee have recommended that the FBI investigate Cheney for potential witness-tampering charges.
“As a licensed attorney, Liz Cheney would have known the ethical and legal issues with this communication,” Loudermilk said last October.
“Clearly, Cheney did not want Stefan Passantino representing Hutchinson; as shortly after Cheney and Hutchinson began communicating, Cheney convinced Hutchinson to fire Passantino, and arranged for a new attorney to represent Hutchinson pro-bono.”
P
Thanks for the ping.
This article makes no sense.
What really happened, in two sentences or less.
Are these people so degraded that they’re on the make 2;/7/365?
I didn’t think the members were J6 committee members.
And are these people that hard up, that more than one of them sent this woman suggestive texts?
I ain’t buyin it.
This really doesn’t sound good for Hutchinson.
What in her history would make these people look for “sexual favors” from her ?
??
Well, we can eliminate Schiff right off the bat................
J6 committee member(s) had the hots for Cassidy.............
We can eliminate Schiff right off the bat................
Only pics showing some leg looks like she needs to stay off the candy bars for a while.
Can’t see her getting bombarded with sexts.
From the original article, I did not think the members of Congress who supposedly texted her, were members of the J6 committee.
There wasn’t anyone on the J6 committee Johnson would need to protect, especially now.
Apparently so.....................
That's what I thought.
But that's what may have happened here.
“Are these people so degraded that they’re on the make 24/7/365?”
Have you met Lazamataz (aka Laz)?
Even Free Republic has at least one guy like that.
But I don’t think of him so much as degrading as entertaining.
Birds of a feather........
Why would Johnson not want the members named?
So, did she comply with those requests?
“Multiple colleagues had raised concerns with the speaker’s office about the potential for public disclosure of ‘sexual texts from members who were trying to engage in sexual favors’ with Hutchinson,” the Post reported Thursday. Separately, a member of Johnson’s staff [said] that Hutchinson could ‘potentially reveal embarrassing information.’”...
Pretty vague for such a serious charge. Name names, give some quotes, or shut up. If true, the creeps on either side need to face the music. But ONLY if true.
Laz has a rep to keep up.
Good man to call FRiend
