It's very telling that Hutchinson gave all this damning testimony and the best Fox can do is to quibble over whether the steering wheel story is accurate or not.
Fox needs to be careful here. They don't want their viewers to go and watch the actual hearing. But that's what will happen if they keep promoting the steering wheel story.
Are you mental? Everyone who can corroborate her story has denied it happened.
Oh there's no cross-examination or rebuttal in this sham. People who rely on the main stream media will only know what the Democrats want them to see which is exactly the purpose of this committee.
There will be plenty of time for cross-examination at trial.
For the record, no one is denying the core revelations.
Trump was told the crowd was armed. It was so obvious they were armed that Trump wanted the metal detectors taken down so the armed folks could come into the rally zone.
Trump then told the armed mob to go to the capitol and fight like hell. KNOWING THEY WERE ARMED.
Trump really wanted to join the armed mob as it sacked the capitol building.
Trump was generally in favor of the riot and the attempted assassination of the vice president of the united states. He wanted it to proceed and did little to stop it.
That's what we got here, and to my knowledge no one is denying any of it.
It was the very definition of a coup and no one is denying it.
Arrest Trump.
Agip, you and I both know that Trump is never going to be arrested. Remember how you LIbs swore that Trump would be enshackled the moment he left office? Well, here we are almost 2 years later and .... Trump is having a great time just enjoying life .. on the outside. Now if Trump travelled to Moscow with vaping stuff - THEN he might be arrested. But aside from that, Trump will never see the inside of a cell.
Right now, I'd put the chance of a Trump arrest at 50/50.
But there is more to come that could raise those odds.

If this "committee" is truly seeking out the truth, should they not allow for cross-examination or rebuttal? That seems very sensible. To allow witnesses to offer up testimony without cross-examination seems absurd. You might as well have Joy Reid or Rachel Maddow testifying in this sham hearing.

100% true that McCarthy's boycott of the jan 6 committee was one of the stupidest moves of modern political history. They could have had Trumpists on the committee but nah they decided they weren't all that interested.
The fact that one of the dumbest people in congress will be Speaker next year is...very bad for the country.

You really think GA is only 50/50 ? That one seems to me more like 75/25 in favor.
Yes they breathlessly arranged a surprise hearing for Hutchinson because something more was coming later... lol...
Hutchinson's testimony has been refuted by everyone who could corroborate it.
The committee has ZERO credibility.
Her testimony has not been refuted. You haven't even watched it.
Remember, we have more hearings after the July 4th break. And the last one will be in prime time.
Hutchinson is not the star witness. This is building up. There is a lot more to come.
It wasn't refuted in the hearing because that's not the committee's purpose. It has been refuted in the media by all the people who could corroborate her story.

You mean by the FAKE news LAMESTREAM Media?
No those guys are openly working for the Democrats. The media that isn't bought and paid for covered it.

The secret service has already said she's lying....I'm wondering if this lady was the leaker who plagued Trump for 4 years...informing the media about his phone calls etc.
But of course, due to R amorality and anti-democracy, the Ds can only win congress if the generic ballot is something like D+5.
Explain this? Right now Democrats control the house after winning only +3% in 2020. And so far in 2022, they've gerrymandered their way to a net gain of 6 seats, according to 538.

No. This is not a trial. It's a hearing. The witnesses are just telling what they know.
These Republicans who testify are under oath though. They must tell the truth under penalty of law.
