january 6th. new reports on the question of lost or erased secret service texts. gentleman, thanks for joining, good evening. evan, i am going to start with you for the reporting. i am going to talk to you about this police officer backing up casey hutchinson s testimony. what do we know? it could be really important testimony from someone that was there that day. this is a metropolitan police officer who was part of the motorcade and who has now given an interview to the january 6th committee. this is reporting. what they are telling us is that essentially the police officer was able to corroborate some of what cassidy hutchinson provided testimony to. there has been a lot of push back from some of the people in secret service, some on pack ground, some of it on record claiming there was some or parts of what she was saying there was this altercation that the president, the former president reached for the steering wheel and that he actually pushed the lead secret servic
back from some of the people in secret service, some on pack ground, some of it on record claiming there was some or parts of what she was saying there was this altercation that the president, the former president reached for the steering wheel and that he actually pushed the lead secret service agent who was there to protect him when they tried to tell him he could not go to the rally. some of that obviously is very, very important testimony. and so this police officer who apparently was there corroborating some parts of that testimony, don. i want your viewing to know, i want to remember exactly what hutchinson told the commit bethat incident. here it is. the president said something to the effect of i am the effing president, take me up to the capitol now, to which bobby responded, sir, we have to go back to the west wing.
citizenship ignored the impact and warned more raids are coming. he also rewrote the message on the statue of liberty saying that its intention was to only welcome immigrants from europe who would not financially burden their new country. and then add to this, a former trump loyalist and apologist offering a sober message. ex-white house communications director anthony scaramucci now saying that he thinks the president is, quote, worse than a racist and suggesting the president may be declining mentally. this guy, i was loyal to him because that is the nature of my pack ground, that is the nature of my neighborhood. i was trying to do everything i could to stay loyal to him. but he s going crazier and crazier. so let s turn to global politics now. the president waded into the hong kong protests. he did not do that to support people demonstrating in support of democracy. instead his message was that china s president could easily ending the protests peacefully. well, something is
who is a senior official working with the national security council who a bunch of reporters know covering the white house, who know he said this thing that the president is claiming is a fake made-up statement, it s really funny that the president is trying to spin that as something that never happened when it was officially sanctioned and officially organized by his own senior staff. quite frankly, it s weird to say that i m not surprised that president trump is doing this. it s very typical of him and his conduct on twitter, conduct in public and the way he likes to gaslight the press. it s worth pointing out that it is the white house that says that this briefing can only take place if it s on pack ground. they re the ones that set the rules. perhaps reporters in the future will think twice about engaging in briefings such as that. thank you for your uyour insigh appreciate it. still to come, an indiana teacher being hailed a shooter for stopping a school shooter by
