Their star witness was a serial liar. And they knew this. What does that say about these committee members?
January 6 Select Committee star witness Cassidy Hutchinson is caught in an ongoing war with the truth. Unfortunately for Cassidy, she committed these lies while under oath and therefore she will likely face legal consequences for her actions.
On Thursday Ben Williamson, who previously worked with Cassidy Hutchinson described a phone call he received from Cassidy before her testimony before Congress.
Cassidy claimed she was nervous that her old Republican colleagues, including Mark Meadows, would be mad at her for testifying before the Select Committee.
Ben Williamson assured her they would not be and understood the situation she was in.
Months later Cassidy Hutchinson lied to the committee about the phone call. It appears it was a setup and Ben Williamson was the victim.
Ben shared his story on X.
I haven’t spoken much about the below incident publicly due to ongoing investigations — but given the good work of today’s House Admin report on the J6 Committee and its revelations on possible “witness tampering,” I’d like to share a relevant episode involving another fabrication from the Committee, Liz Cheney, and my former colleague Cassidy Hutchinson.
Almost three years ago, in early 2022, I got a phone call from Cassidy telling me her closed-door deposition with the J6 Committee (under subpoena) was approaching. Cassidy claimed to be worried that our old Trump WH colleagues, including our boss Mark Meadows, might think she was “disloyal” for following a subpoena and showing up to the deposition.
I cut her off mid-convo and responded: “No one will think you’re disloyal just for following a subpoena. And Mark would never, ever ask you to do anything other than the right thing and tell the truth. He wouldn’t think you’re disloyal.” She agreed, and the convo ended perfectly fine.
Months later, Cassidy appeared out of nowhere at her now infamous public J6 hearing, making completely outlandish claims untethered from reality — many of which were rightly disputed or shot down within minutes. But you may also recall that after Cassidy’s appearance, Liz Cheney put up a bizarre anonymous message on a big screen, allegedly received by Cassidy before her (aforementioned) private deposition. Cheney claimed it was evidence of “witness intimidation.”
The anonymous message Cheney displayed read, partly: “He (Meadows) told me you have your deposition tomorrow. He knows you’re loyal, and you’re going to do the right thing when you go in for your deposition.”
Via public news reports, I later learned this was in reference to me. It was a completely twisted, utterly nonsense re-telling of the phone convo where Cassidy had fretted to me about “loyalty.” She (and the Committee) embellished parts of the exchange, made up others, and spun it into a lie that appeared like witness intimidation.
The J6 Committee presented this account as factual — when it wasn’t — and then leaked my name to reporters to create the narrative that I was guilty.
In the weeks and months that followed, I faced accusations of criminal exposure over it – all over nonsense. Members like Dan Goldman publicly accused me of “witness tampering.” The FBI called me in for hours of questioning. Meanwhile, the J6 Committee never once followed up with me or my attorneys to ask me about this interaction before uncritically airing the dishonest version. It was all based on fabrications, yet the J6 Committee never even bothered to get the other side. It’s one of many reasons why none of their claims about President Trump, or frankly anyone else, should ever be believed.
This is just one story in a long list, and relatively, I ended up one of the lucky ones. But I’m glad to see the report today take the J6 Committee and their ‘star witness’ to task. They spread an untold amount of falsehoods about my friends, colleagues, and bosses, and forced many good people to defend themselves in ways they should’ve never had to. I will never forget it.
This is not the first time Cassidy Hutchinson was caught lying to Congress and the January 6 Select Committee.
In fact, The Gateway Pundit has listed NINE different times Cassidy was caught egregiously lying to the committee. Here they are:
1.) Cassidy Hutchinson said President Trump attempted to grab the steering wheel of “the beast” and wrestle control from the Secret Service on January 6th.
Truth: President Trump was not in “the beast” on January 6th.
Truth: Secret Service agents willing to testify against this ridiculous lie by young Cassidy. It never happened.
2.) Cassiday Hutchinson said President Trump grabbed the neck area of Secret Service agent Bobby Engel.
Truth: Bobby Engel willing to testify this was a lie.
3.) Cassidy Hutchinson said President Trump broke dishes and flipped tablecloths on January 6th.
Truth: President Trump refutes the nonsensical claim.
4.) Cassidy Hutchinson claimed to have written a handwritten note on January 6th.
Truth: Former White House lawyer Eric Herschmann wrote the note and testified to this fact under oath previously before the committee.
5.) Cassidy Hutchinson said her boss Mark Meadows called Roger Stone on January 5th to find out what would play out the next day on January 6th.
Truth: Roger Stone has never spoken to Mark Meadows outside of a conversation they held in a green room in 2019.
6.) Cassidy Hutchinson said Mark Meadows spoke with General Flynn on January 5th.
Truth: General Flynn has never had a phone conversation with Mark Meadows.
7.) Cassidy Hutchinson said General Flynn and Roger Stone participated by phone in a briefing in the war room in the Willard Hotel with Mark Meadows on January 5th.
Truth: Did not happen. Stone and Flynn have not spoken with Meadows on the phone, ever.
8.) Cassidy Hutchinson said Jeffrey Clark met with Rudy Giuliani and Trump campaign at White House.
Truth: This is false. They’ve never met or communicated.
On March 7, 2022, former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson testified to @January6thCmte that former senior Justice Department official Jeff Clark strategized at White House with Giuliani and Trump campaign to object to election.
100% false.

9.) Cassidy Hutchinson testified that Trump’s White House counsel Pat Cipollone was at the White House on the morning of January 6, 2021.
Truth: Pat Cipollone was NOT at the White House on January 6.
EXCLUSIVE: Multiple sources tell @FDRLST Pat Cipollone wasn’t at the White House on the morning of Jan. 6 as Cassidy Hutchinson testified.

These are only the lies we have captured so far. Today we can add a new one – when Cassidy Hutchinson SCREWED her friend Ben Williamson.
At some point Cassidy Hutchinson must face a court for her crimes.
