   The January 6 Committee’s credibility suffered a serious blow on   
   Tuesday when reports surfaced that the lead Secret Service agent   
   in charge of former President Trump’s security detail that day   
   would contradict testimony delivered from star witness Cassidy   
   Hutchinson.   
      
   On Tuesday, former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson testified   
   that former President Trump literally tried to commandeer the   
   presidential suburban during the January 6 riot and became   
   borderline violent when Bobby Engel tried to stop him.   
   Hutchinson said she learned of the story from Tony Ornato, the   
   then-White House deputy chief of staff. Hours later, Peter   
   Alexander of NBC News said that a source close to the Secret   
   Service indicated that agent Bobby Engel will testify “under   
   oath that neither man was assaulted and that Mr. Trump never   
   lunged for the steering wheel.”

   ?? A source close to the Secret Service tells me both Bobby   
   Engel, the lead agent, and the presidential limousine/SUV driver   
   are prepared to testify under oath that neither man was   
   assaulted and that Mr. Trump never lunged for the steering wheel.

   Conservatives and Trump allies immediately pounced on the   
   report, saying it completely destroys any credibility the   
   January 6 show trial had hoped to retain.

   January 6th Committee “witness” Cassidy Hutchinson basically   
   claimed that President Trump was a Ninja.   
      
   The Media is saying that is a LIE.   
      
   So is President Trump the #MAGANinja or no? ????

   A Secret Service source told me earlier: “FYI, I’m calling   
   bullshit on the Secret Service story. You think none of us would   
   have never heard of this as an internal rumor? No fucking way.”

   The story is patently absurd. The problem is that half the   
   country believes it, just like toddlers believe that a monster   
   lives under the bed. Seven years of nonstop media gaslighting   
   turned a large chunk of the adult population into imbecilic   
   children.

   First, today’s testimony was hearsay, meaning it wasn’t actually   
   witnessed by the witness and would almost certainly be excluded   
   from an actual court trial. Second, the president rides in the   
   back of his vehicle, wouldn’t it be impossible to grab the   
   wheel? Third…

   Peter Alexander just reported that the Secret Service is   
   categorically denying the testimony of Hutchinson that Donald   
   Trump tried to grab the steering wheel of the Beast.

   The Secret Service ultimately has to follow all of the   
   President's orders... So aside from the fact that it was   
   physically/logistically impossible for Trump to try to wrestle   
   the limo steering wheel away... he would've never needed to.   
      
   The January 6 committee clowned itself.

   If this is true, it means the January 6 committee allowed a   
   completely ridiculous accusation to air on national television   
   before even interviewing the Secret Service agents WHO WERE   
   ACTUALLY IN THE CAR about whether or not it was accurate.

   While the media has been comparing the supposed star J6 witness   
   to John Dean, it looks like they should have been comparing her   
   to Jussie Smollett.   
      
   Who could have seen this coming? ??
