When then-President Donald Trump finished his speech on Jan. 6, 2021, he wanted to go to the U.S. Capitol.

But a Secret Service agent blocked him from going, according to a newly disclosed account.

President Trump and Robert Engel, his lead Secret Service agent, entered the SUV around 1:10 p.m. after President Trump concluded his speech, which was delivered on the Ellipse.

So, essentially:

Trump: “I’d like to go to the capitol.”
Secret Service: “Sir, we’re not prepared for that, you should go to the White House instead.”
Trump: “Okay.”

Sounds like Hitler to me. [/s]

So the Secret Service kidnapped the president and can override his commands. Got it...

Kinda sounds like insurrection.

Those Secret Service agents and their supervisors need to meet with Mr. Waterboard and give detailed answers to his questions.

His only intent was to go to the Capitol and when the SS explained why they couldn’t do that , he didn’t. End of story. Cassidy Hutchinson is a liar and perjurer.

“Ms. Hutchinson, whose lawyer has not returned an inquiry, changed her testimony dramatically after testifying to the panel three times, according to a new House Republican report . “

She also hugged Liz Cheney on television after she finished her dramatic testimony during the J6 witch hunt- I mean televised inquiry.

Were the Secret Service agents given the word that the DeepStaters were going to set up the demonstration as an “insurrection” and that government agents had been authorized to shoot someone they could subsequently claim was an imminent threat?

Sounds like the SS (heh) might’ve saved his political butt.

If he had been in the capital at the time the DNC would’ve said he led his supporters into storming the capital.

I mean - it’s effectively the same thing Nancy Pelosi and her crew were doing all summer long but that’s how that goes.

Yeah - I suspect the SS guys really try to live up to their standard.

Those S/S agents probably knew what the other fed agencies were up to.

Is this SS officer one of the ones whose phones were wiped, like with a cloth?

Um, that’s not what I heard! My best friend’s sister’s boyfriend’s brother’s girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who’s going with the girl who saw Donald put the James Bond guy in a chokehold then ramming his fist through the driver’s seat, through his back, out through his chest and then grabbing the steering wheel. I guess it’s pretty serious!

The main takeaway is that Cassidy Hutchinson lied to the J6 Commission. This testimony was given to the J6 Commission, which means that the J6 Commission knew the truth, but suppressed & instead pushed the lie as the truth knowing that it wasn’t.

Trump Motorcade Driver Testimony Blows Up J6 ‘Star Witness’
Cassidy Hutchinson Claimed Trump Grabbed Steering Wheel
The Gateway Pundit ^ | Mar. 11, 2024 5:00 pm | Cristina Laila
Posted on 3/11/2024, 3:50:22 PM by E. Pluribus Unum

House Republicans on Monday released a report that blew up Liz Cheney’s J6 ‘star witness’ Cassidy Hutchinson’s testimony on Trump’s actions on January 6.

“None of the White House Employees corroborated Hutchinson’s sensational story about President Trump lunging for the steering wheel of the Beast. However, some witnesses did describe the President’s mood after the speech at the Ellipse,” the report read.

The driver of Trump’s motorcade (the beast) refuted Cassidy Hutchinson’s under-oath claims that Trump grabbed the steering wheel and physically assaulted a Secret Service agent.

“The driver testified that he specifically refuted the version of events as recounted by Hutchinson. The driver of the SUV testified that he “did not see him reach [redacted]. [President Trump] never grabbed the steering wheel. I didn’t see him, you know, lunge to try to get into the front seat at all.” Despite the driver of the President’s SUV testifying under oath that the Hutchinson story was false, the Select Committee chose to validate and promote Hutchinson’s version of the story as fact. The Select Committee hid the driver’s full testimony and only favorably mentioned his testimony in its Final Report, it did not release the full transcript.” the report read.

In June 2022, The J6 Committee’s ‘surprise witness’ Cassidy Hutchinson testified Trump got into “the beast” after his speech at the Ellipse on January 6, 2021 with the belief that he would be driven to the Capitol.
