Mission accomplished

You won’t see this televised, or even reported on by the mainstream media:

“This did not happen”. Secret Service doubling down on denial of Hutchinson testimony

“There are three people in that vehicle: Bobby Engel, President Trump and the limo driver,” the source said, and both agents are “saying that did not happen.”

This once again raises the question as to why the committee had Hutchinson tell this story at all. She did not witness the supposed incident, but only claimed to have heard it second-hand from Ornato [who himself was at the White House, not in the limo].

Not clear why? I’d say the reason is crystal clear:

Cassidy Hutchinson’s testimony before the Jan. 6 committee drew the largest live daytime audience, beating the previous four daytime hearings.

Hutchinson’s testimony about former President Donald Trump’s behavior following the 2020 election reached 13.17 million people last week, Nielsen ratings data showed. 

Leading up to Hutchinson’s testimony on June 28, the Jan. 6 hearings saw significant drops in viewership, with the second installment of hearings only drawing 10 million viewers — half the views that the initial prime-time hearing enjoyed. 

The numbers from Hutchinson’s testimony indicate a 28% increase, according to the Associated Press. They also top the average viewership of the four daytime hearings by 23%.
