For nearly three years the propaganda media, alongside certain politically-motivated investigators, painted a particular picture of the January 6th events.
Especially regarding President-elect Trump’s alleged reactions and statements.
This from thepatriotjournal.com.
However, as with many hastily constructed political conclusions, time and proper investigation have a way of revealing the truth.
House Republicans looked into what some have said about Trump. Pundits and Trump-haters are claiming he supported rioters who called for former Vice President Mike Pence to be hung. Typical of the media.
This is what the investigation discovered:
From Breitbart:
The Committee on House Administration Subcommittee on Oversight released a report finding that there was ‘no evidence’ that President-elect Donald Trump supported rioters on January 6, 2021, who had called for former Vice President Mike Pence to be hung.
This finding directly contradicts one of the most sensational claims that dominated headlines during the original January 6th Select Committee hearings of 2022.
The report’s conclusions are particularly damaging to the credibility of former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson, whose dramatic testimony became a centerpiece of the original January 6th Committee’s narrative.
According to the new House report:
Hutchinson’s account shows troubling inconsistencies that raise serious questions about the entire investigation’s integrity.
Perhaps most telling is the evolution of Hutchinson’s story. The report reveals that in her initial February 23, 2022, and March 7, 2022, interviews with the Un-Select Committee, Hutchinson made no mention whatsoever of Trump supporting calls for violence against Pence.
It wasn’t until a May 17, 2022, interview—notably ‘at Representative Cheney’s insistence’—that this explosive claim suddenly materialized.
Highlighting the dangerous practice of building major historical conclusions on single-source testimony, the new report states:
The [Un-] Select Committee—relying on nothing other than Hutchinson’s testimony—incorrectly asserted in its Report that President Trump agreed with the rioters chanting that Vice President Pence deserved to be hanged.
The evidence further reveals:
[A]n actual eyewitness—a White House employee who was ‘within earshot of President Trump the entire time’ during the relevant period in the President’s Dining Room—provided testimony directly contradicting Hutchinson’s third-hand account.
Moreover, multiple individuals who worked closely with then-Chief of Staff Mark Meadows confirmed he would never have behaved in the manner Hutchinson described, particularly regarding casual discussions of violence in public spaces. This testimony, previously unavailable to the public, casts significant doubt on the original committee’s conclusions.
These revelations raise troubling questions about the role of former Representative Liz Cheney, who appears to have played a significant part in shaping Hutchinson’s evolving testimony.
The House report, citing these and other concerning findings, recommends a criminal investigation into Cheney’s conduct during the original investigation.
This new evidence does not just challenge a single narrative—it strikes at the heart of how the entire January 6th investigation was conducted.
When congressional investigations appear to pressure witnesses and ignore contradictory evidence, it undermines public trust in our institutional oversight processes.
The American people deserve better than selective storytelling and politically motivated investigations.
This new House report, while focused on a specific claim, reveals a broader pattern of narrative manipulation that should concern every citizen who values truth and proper governmental oversight.
As this story continues to develop, one thing becomes increasingly clear:
[T]he official January 6th narrative we’ve been fed for years deserves far more scrutiny than it has received.
The question now becomes:
[W]hat other claims from the original investigation might crumble under proper, objective examination?
