I hope Jack Smith makes all of these dishonest, crooked and unethical lawyers accountable for these crimes!
AMEN!
I mean that is considered as witness tampering! This is criminal!
Yes please......
THAT'S WHAT THEY GOT HIM FOR 😏😂😅
Sadly, I think the DOJ is gonna need more help than just Jack Smith….To tackle all this in a timely manner!
Our nation will always be indebted to Cassidy Hutchinson... America thanks you.
And Lt. Col. Vindemann
What about the next time she votes for a republican since they are a threat to our democracy?
She's no hero. She chose to work for Trumpworld long after it became clear what it was.

Still doesn't make sense. Especially when you see all the previous foot-soldiers falling before you.
Fantastic segment, I think Cassidy Hutchinson's courage is inspirational.
@Mike R. I have to agree with you. I'm European, but like just everyone around the world, I've been shocked by Trump's 4 year reign of terror and his outrageous behaviour and words. Cassidy is a hero. I found her testimony inspirational. She was brave in standing up for what's right and turning down all offers of legal assistance from Trump's orbit.
Hear, hear. Very moving, very passionate segment indeed.
Sure now it is. But she still thought it made sense to work for the Trump admin. I'm not forgiving any of these people. Ever.
Have you ever worked for a company who had a manager and/or supervisor that wanted you to do things that you knew was wrong? Don't judge her, we all make mistakes, she corrected hers.

Her bio dad.
Sometimes, the example shown by one's parents is inspirational in other ways. 😕
one blemish, she worked for trump ! just another maga head like her bio dad ?
Exactly 💯. She stood alone on her beliefs of a true Patriot
Cassidy Hutchinson will be in the history books. She is a role model for us all.

Thank you, Ms. Cassidy Hutchinson. I’m a 72 year old retired nurse, songwriter, and old hippie who has not gotten lost in cynicism because of people like you.
So many young women standing up to these men who’s corruption seems to know no bounds.
This reminds me of a movie I watched years ago, the Verdict with Paul Newman. A young nurse who was afraid of the lawyers who ruined her career! She Said " Who were these men?" !!!! The very same thing! Who are these men who have tried to undermine her courage and truth?
👍👍
Great program. Cassidy Hutchinson has served her country faithfully, and shown courage the entire republican congress was unable to match. I hope and trust her career in politics will be a long and important one.
Great success to her in or out of politics.
Her career in politics is fine, she made some deep connections while they were coaching her.
I don't agree. Sure she was strong to do this, but it was too late. The right thing to do would be NOT to go in the white house in the first place, because from 2015 everything was clear in this maga world. She wanted to have a great career starting with the white house in her life...She was naive or far too ambitious, in both cases she deserves not to have a great career she wasn't advised in the first place, and she did stay in white house knowing everything. If she didn't knew it's worse. She doesn't think quick and right so I wouldn't want her in any power position and I believe she'll never have one.
Yes and yes. Stay in politics.
A genuinely moving program.
The young woman is struggling with right and wrong. She made the right choice.
She's all about the money.. 👈

Not from her father!

God bless Cassidy Hutchinson. She may still feel as though she failed, but I would tell her that she must rest assured that she can pass the mirror test. I am a baby boomer, but let me tell you this, if she is a representative of her generation then her generation is well represented and our country will be well-served. Thank you Cassidy. Thank you.
nicely said.
Another Boomer here totally agrees with you! I will never ever forget her testimony that day! I knew she was telling the truth from beginning to end. I could just feel it right through my TV screen. I hope there are absolutely beautiful things in her future.
Wishful thinking... Why would you possibly conflate one person's morality with that of an entire generation? I don't mean to insult you but your thinking is absurd.
To me, passing the mirror test is everything. To me , give me any amount of money. If I cant look at myself in the mirror, I've got nothing. What price would you accept to sell your dignity? Ask each of those who has tried to help Trump achieve his illegal goals.
Well said K J!!

What a great story! I'm so inspired by Cassidy's authentic courage and moral compass, one which Trump world has no concept of. Thankful that a young woman like her had enough faith in herself and integrity to speak the truth as she experienced it.
Per Insider "Cassidy Hutchinson said she lied in her original deposition to the House Capitol-riot committee.
She said she initially told the panel she hadn't heard of Trump lunging at a Secret Service agent.
But soon after her deposition, she said she told her attorney, "I lied, I lied, I lied."
Open mind to be easy mugged fool
Where was her truth. She never give it. I hope you become a victim of fake testimony with out evidence but I doub that won't even get you to start thinking and questioning
Keep her safe
Why was she working for the devil? Surely she knew what she was getting into? She's not 7 yrs old!
I can only imagine the anguish she felt. But I'm glad she weighed her options and chose to be truthful, amazing how the Trump administration would try to corrupt good people but it won't be here. Ms Hutchinson you have a moral compass and it works fine!
Yes -- God Bless Her
👍👍
It's incredible what this 26 year old faced and stood up against the wrong. Absolutely incredible!
She has a backbone and two big brass balls.

Bravo! Best comment here yet!
that is the attitude missing in todays politics. i may not agree with you but i can tell if you're for America.
26 years with integrity… There is still hope in this world
This lady is an example to the world as to how responsible people should act in face of underhand pressure.
Yeah, she should get Kevin McCarthy's job instead... if he gets picked
Yet she will be attacked, hounded and harassed as Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger were. There is no stopping cultists when their leader is angered.
She is young but very smart. Thanks Lawrence for covering her wise decisions about attorneys.
She knew who she was working for. Imagine working down the hall from Trump and right next to Meadows. She probably witnessed crimes committed every day.
Broke my heart that this poor girl went to her dad to beg for help as a last resort to save herself and he said no. Because he believed in the politics more than his own daughter
Her father is simply a POS jerk w little morals.
He abandoned his child in her greatest time of need, absolutely deplorable.
Can you imagine how crushing that must have been? Oh, well. She's got truth on her side.
Say what?! OMG! That young woman is our Joan D' Arc.

There are Trumpists who are not stupid and disconnected from reality. But they choose to support the politics of this party and they are okay with the destruction of democracy.
They see it as a chance for themselves to be priviledged and take profit from the powergain if this would have worked out.
This is exactly what I felt listening to Alex's testimony all those years ago- wondering about how much courage it took to step into the unwanted limelight and do what was right. I never thought to see its like again. Sadly, just 47 years later, it becomes necessary again. But I am impressed beyond words by both of these people.
She should be given a medal.

Cassidy Hutchinson will be the face of moral integrity and towering courage for years to come. What an amazing young woman - she's an inspiration to us all!
I sat next to Alexander Butterfield's wife one day at the Watergate trial. When the day's proceedings ended we sat on the steps of the court building and talked for about 45 minutes. She told me about what had happened to her and her family in the wake of her husband's bombshell testimony. Essentially, they went from being the toast of the town...to being shunned. She was a very gracious and dignified woman.
AMAZING, AMAZING EPISODE.
GAVE me GOOSEBUMPS.

Cassidy Hutchinson is an extraordinarily brave 26-year-old. She is a genuine hero.

A very inspiring young lady, even here in Scotland trump has left his grubby mark
This is so profound! Cassidy is a superhero!
I watched her testimony that day. I just kept thinking "GO GURRL"!! You could tell she was nervous but she stayed calm and clear headed all the way through. THAT is what truth looks like...not a bombastic performance art scream session.
Even more astounding to hear she did not have any family support! Strong woman with admirable integrity.
Can you just imagine how Jim Jordan would have treated her if he'd been on the Committee?
Correction: 1) She had her mother's moral support, 2) which makes her father's lack of morality even more pronounced & telling!
Wys!

Cassidy Hutchinson is one of the true heroes to come out of the January 6 event. She s spoke up and shared what she saw and heard from those working closest to the president.
She also shared what she saw and heard directly from the president. ✌🏼

Her place in history is secure. Her story would make a great opera- the stuff of heroes!!
Her integrity is a role model for everyone. She trusted her judgement and her morality even though she didn't even get support from her own parents. What an amazing lady. I hope she will be safe and protected. Thank you, Cassidy!
The Father was/ is the Looser. He will live with that for the rest of his miserable life....just to support dt.
A 26 year old with more integrity in her pinky than the whole of the Trump organization and many of the men and women that serve on congress that are more than twice her age. That testimony was full of desperation and pride at the same time. She did the right thing and I hope she never forgets that.
Hallelujah! We're surrounded by Trump sycophants in this area, but she stood up and spoke with honesty and honor! 🙏
Cassidy is even more courageous than I initially thought. I hope she's doing ok.

@Harry Schurr If trump is elected again, I will see it as a failure of the American education system.
Having Stefan Passantino as an ethics lawyer is just devious! Fun though, watching powerful older men, bragging, grandstanding and mansplaining in front of young, attractive, only seemingly naive women, who will not be coerced by them and instead will be bringing them down with integrity and character. Nothing but respect!
tRUmp and "ethics" in the same sentence does not compute.

Cassidy Hutchinson is a poster child for patriotism.
Words cannot begin to express how moving this presentation was. I feel that it was extremely powerful and more so that Hutchinson and Butterfield were able to connect. To say this presentation was excellent would be an understatement. Well done.
That's a lot of words, and you're right..
I felt like "hurling"..👈🤔
This was the sort of story that got told when I was young. This was what White America thought we were - people who could find a way through the darkness by following good examples, and look at the mirror all our lives. We did not realize how many people we were leaving behind without guidance - both people of color and children being raised in this soulless machinery. Heartbreaking. I don't understand how she survived.
I completely agree with CM Junior.
Get a grip, she lied under oath. We see what makes someone you liberals are proud of, tell the right lie, and we love you. Now, she is telling the lie you liberals want her to tell, so she is your hero.

She was brought up well. Thanks to her parents, her mother especially. Oh she must be so worried about what her daughter's going through right now because Cass doesn't deserve this.

Beautiful report on these two whose lives had never crossed before the Jan 6 committee. We all owe a debt to Cassidy Hutchinson for her intelligence, tenacity, honesty, and bravery. 26 y/o? Long may she live. What an icon.
Listening to Cassidy Hutchinson's testimony that day broke me. All the pain and abuse of the last 6 years from these crooks, liars, scoundrels. Finally, someone who stood up with tons of moral courage. I was reduced to a 71 year old lady broken crying and crying throughout. I am as moved today as I was then. There are so few hero's. Yet the Power they have heals and lives on , forever. Thank you young one. Thank you Cassidy Hutchinson.
It is horrible that many of the old Republican men are No JFK.
👍👍
Thanks Gramma…I’m kind of old myself,but I got a message for these traitors…meet me in the back…
I feel you. Cassidy was the one we’d all been waiting for year upon year. So many “adults in the room” - and pretty much all of them older men with connections and resources that most of us could not fathom - and yet none of them had the courage to do anything close to what she did. I was in awe of her then too, but even more so today after hearing about these transcripts.
Lol, TDS is real. Get a hold of yourself drama queen. Grow up and quit listening to this garbage propaganda.
A moving presentation, thank you Lawrence!
I feel so, so very bad for her. She's a baby still sheesh.. My son is her age.. My heart hurts for her so much.. I cannot imagine how scared and alone she felt..
What I find really sad is that her parents probably aren't proud of her for standing her ground and showing character and integrity, but I sure would be proud of her if she were my daughter.
Those traits aren't valued by MAGATS
She’s clearly a better person than her parents could ever hope to be🙏🏽
Garbage in , garbage out.What do You expect from the daughter of a war criminal this news network described in the 2000s?.Yet they are moralizing their audience.MSM, what are you people afraid of just one man called TRUMP?. Criminals are not charged but 45 is called a criminal for standing against the impenetrable establishment?. Keep voting on party lines and same incumbents you are doing wonders to the corrupt uniparty.
I noticed that as well.
I felt especially bad for her on the piece about her dad. Oh that must have hurt deeply. Woman to woman, hold your head up girl, this too shall pass.
As an AMERICAN, I thank YOU, Cassidy, for your courage in protecting what my many ancestors fought for since the Revolutionary War, and that's OUR DEMOCRACY.
THANK YOU.
Thank You Cassidy. You have made General Grant proud. He bravely fought to save and preserve the Union from the enemy. One of the greatest generals to walk the face of the earth.

Your post made me cry because
Yes. She is. Excellent analogy.
Elderly Aussie here: I am so proud of Cassidy Hutchinson. For her Honesty and Integrity I sincerely hope the DOJ and the legal profession honours her professionalism and does not allow the criminal politicians and lawyers to escape their just deserts. Young women (and men) of America, irrespective of your race or colour, here is a young woman who is a role model for all of you. Being truthful isn't always easy but it is the right thing to do. Honesty is in short supply around this World we live in - I hope her Integrity is recognised by her Country e.g. Congressional Medal of Honour. God Bless You, Cassidy.
From an elderly American..I thank you 💯💯👍
Ms. Hutchinson deserves the Kennedy “Profiles in Courage” award.
SHE is an American Hero.
Rather than Trump's "A moron in the eaves"...or a "Critical mass of orange in the common zeal of his postscripts and luminary malfeasance in retrospect"...

stop! this woman put up with and encouraged trump while he was trying to destroy innocent people for 4 years!...at the end she saw she could be in trouble & part of the insurrection. she was smart enough to jump ship when she did. but it was for her own selfish agenda. i hope trump gets back to his "beauty queen campaign" with all his "HAREM" instead of trying to put lipstick on a pig and calling them his 'assistants...'

What an amazing story. After listening to so much corruption from person after person it is so encouraging to hear that there are honest people who were within that administration. So many fell like dominoes being more than willing to wrap themselves in lies for one terrible man. God bless Miss Hutchinson for her courage, determination and honesty. I have no doubt that she too will be an inspiration to others. I pray that she has great success throughout her life.
The scary thing is, most people are honest and act in good faith, but they are surrounded by scofflaws and scoundrels who mislead and gaslight and manipulate. The types of people who enabled the worst of the Nazi abuses were not the monsters themselves, but the good and honest people who believed in whatever bullschitt the monsters fed them. The secretaries, the guards, the cooks, the drivers, the bureaucrat, the police officer, the office staffer, and so on. Think about a guy like Mike Pence. A guy like him lacks the creativity and ambition to do wrongful things on his own. But he possesses the deep seated need to obey, conform, comply and be part of a larger group. His loyalties and obedience and his religious upbringing led him to being loyal and faithful to the most corrupt president in American history. Even *after* that president actively encouraged an angry violent mob to hang him. Because Mike Pence believes that trump is right and he is wrong. In the twisted reality of narcissistic abuse, corruption and criminality, Mike Pence is the guy who does all the dirty work, with the best intentions.
Illona, the pathetic and sad thing is - there are legions of Trump Apologists & Excuse-makers that are trashing her as a blatant liar, a disloyal “hanger-on,” looking to make a buck on a book deal, or cash in on some such “15 minutes of fame” garbage…
It was shocking watching a 20-something woman stand for the truth after all these men lied. Then hearing she was free from the mob boss lawyer wow.

The problem for this theory is simple. The FBI already cleared Trump. Jan 6th is and always was a nothing burger. Now the real fun starts. Congress is coming after real criminal allegations you know the ones that can be proved? Strap into you seats boys and girls. Its going to get good.
Thank you, Cassidy . I'm so proud of you.
Lawrence, my jaw dropped watching you do this section. I am so proud of you for appreciating how important this is. Not only did Butterfield inspire her, but you’re right, Hutchinson will be in an inspiration for many years to come. And for you to have that interview ready to go so quickly is astonishing. Kudos to all of your team.
This story brought me to tears. Ms. Hutchunson was very brave as she kept pushing to try and do the right thing despite every road block she encountered. On behalf of our country, I am thankful she never gave up and eventually was able to speak the truth.
May Our Lord always smile her way.

By now you folks probably know Cassidy Hutchinson has even met Alex Butterfield in person, and seen their encounter on video...Very emotional moment...
Brilliant, Lawrence. Brought tears to my eyes. Very powerful. Your entire hour was must-see.
I agree completely. I was absolutely riveted the entire hour. Bravo for this level of journalism and to Ms. Hutchinson. I also have a Russian Blue. They are most intelligent. It is entirely possible that Ms. Hutchinson's testimony, and hers alone, will get Trump Indicted Federally. The DOJ may yet call her as a witness.
Her bravery is astounding. I admire it. I hope she’s safe.
I hope so, too. I was thinking that maybe she should leave the country, go where her face won't be recognized for a while.
The entire U.S. population owes her a debt, and if a GoFundMe were set up to pay for a long vacation for Ms. Hutchinson, I would gladly contribute!
@LauraMorland I can't imagine having to leave the country for being a person of integrity. That's what the disgraced, twice impeached, morally bankrupt former guy unleashed on America. He has done irreparable damage to this country. If he is not held accountable along with his enablers in congress and elsewhere who covered up his corruption this nation is doomed. Let's Go Fund Cassidy.
@@hitchinaride1972 I agree with you wholeheartedly. I would gladly donate. And I love your string of adjectives: "disgraced, twice impeached, morally bankrupt former guy"!
Life might be easier for Cassidy, though, if she were to spend a year abroad. I mean, what is she doing now? Where has she been living for the past six months? She's famous enough now that her photo would certainly appear in tabloids if she were seen anywhere that papparazzi are around. Is she in hiding?
FYI, my husband and I live half the year in France (where we just arrived), and so I may be prejudiced, but living abroad has its own rewards.
This is like a mafia saga.

Passantino is a partner so he is not going to completely vanish from the company overnight. Others have reported he has taken a leave of absence.
This was one of your best shows ever Mr. McDonnell. It must have felt so good to be able to bring those two together. Very thought-provoking and profound to think that someday, someone may find themselves inspired by Ms. Hutchinson doing the right thing.
When Cassidy said that she looked up about Watergate, my first thought was that she'd maybe tried to contact Jill Wine-Banks to be her lawyer. The end story turned out to be just as amazing and our incredible Lawrence was a part of it. Inspirational all round.
The worst part of this whole story, I believe, is the reaction by Cassidy's father. To turn your back on your own daughter in a time of extreme need .......... well thank God Cassidy was strong enough to weather it. God bless you Cassidy.

O'Donnell is a decent guy with heart. In times like these our longing for decency can make us tear up when we find it. Happy Holidays.🌹
Lawrence always manages to give me goosebumps, his delivery is always exemplary regardless of what he is talking about.
I feel so sorry for Cassidy Hutchinson. It must be so hard for her working around criminals. She couldn't get help from her useless father. Thank you for telling ALL Americans the truth. STAY SAFE.
And of course, her biological father is a POS Trump supporter. Smh.
Exactly, the one time she goes to her father he says no. I hope he feels guilt.
Had to be he'll working with Satan chosen lying one every day
@@rriddick8571 ppppp
Richard Nixon: I'm not a crook.
Trump: Hold my beer
I know that took great intestinal fortitude, to go see her biological father, especially since it seems he was not active in her life. The courage for that....amazing! Pains me to hear that he put his political views over helping his daughter. To also have her mother, not on her side, that had to be the loneliest feeling! Yet she remained strong in her beliefs, and she is better for doing so. My hats off to her, to stand strong in her belief of what she felt was right. 👏👏👏
That is when true courage emerges--when no one you love has your back and you listen to the inner promptings of conscience.
I understand what it’s like to not have anyone in your family willing to help you. It’s terrible. I feel for the girl.
I hear you. Try to remember the important part, you can do the right thing anyway... No matter what anyone else says. ❤
Grace under pressure = Ms. Hutchinson. As the saying goes, "You'll never regret doing the right thing." Peace to all!
"You'll never regret doing the right thing." Hmmm.... I hope you're right, but I think there will be many days on which she will feel that her life would have been more straightforward if she had 'gone with the flow'.
@@DownhillAllTheWay No, she'll be happy she got off the sinking ship
@@DownhillAllTheWay Of course, you have a definitve right to your perspective, but as Robert Frost so poignantly explains in "The Road Not Taken" - it is that path that many regret they didn't explore. This young lady has more "cajones" than all the so called experienced political players around her. Got to give her props!
@@DownhillAllTheWay Yeah, 'straightforward' like the lives of Alfonso Capone and Jim Jones, etc.. ;=\
Merry Christmas and straightforward New Year!
@@huskynation2318 Just like, before her 50 years ago, another WH aide, Alexander Butterfield did for his country and the...U.S. Constitution!!!
Amen, and Merry Christmas!..
Happy real New Year then...
I will gladly tell Cassidy's story to my grandchildren. I will pray for her safety too.
26 years old. And she knew full well what happens to people who make the red hats angry. And she was brave enough to tell the truth anyway. Far braver than her peers who lied, avoided testifying or took the 5th.
Think back to your own life - would you have been brave enough to tell the full truth as she did, knowing the likely repercussions? She is an inspiration, and sadly, it's because she simply told the truth under oath. It's a shame that being honest is so rare in politics, but that's nothing new about humanity.
i HAVE THOUGHT BACK TO MY LIFE, AND BEING THE COWARD THAT I AM, I CAN'T BE CERTAIN THAT I COULD HAVE WITHSTOOD ALL THE PRESSURE. CASSIDY IS AN OUTSTABDING WOMAN AND HER COURAGE KNEW NO BOUNDS. I BELIEVE CASSIDY'S COURAGE WOULD HAVE BEEN THE INSPIRATION FOR ME TO OVERCOME MY COWARDICE.
What about Ginni Thomas?! Not one word about her treason
Sorry, did we interrupt your train of thought? This video is about Cassidy Hutchinson.
Lawrence has done plenty about her.
For laymen:
Not one word in that Jan6 House committee report.
I have children older than her and find it hard to believe her age. She seems so much older. I commend her. Hard to believe but wow I would be proud if I were her father. Well done.
Puberty blockers...👈
Can't imagine having a daughter alone on the road googling for guidance for right and wrong ...the GOP eats its children.
@@ineedyourvalidation8295 You’re a very dedicated troll, but your snarky remarks fail to hide your unhappiness and desperation. Sad.
@@silvermainecoons3269 Yes, it's very sad to witness the immaturity and abject ignorance of these persistent trolls. I guess it's too late for any of them to get a life.

A True American. This just shows you, the truth will set you free. The American people are grateful for you.
👍👍
Lawrence, this is by far my favorite segment you've ever done. I'm in awe.
I am literally crying for this young lady. What a human being. We all those who love the truth give you hug of love today Cassidy
I cried, too.
I would really like to think I would be as strong as her if I was in her situation.
Not sure, though.
And yes, I'm kinda welling up too.
I teared for Cassidy and Mr Butterfield. This is what valor looks like.
Me too- so powerful- I wish I could have seen their conversation w/ each other. So thankful she had the strength and courage. so sad her father is such a POS and wouldn't help her in her most desperate hour
AMEN! What an American Hero!
god bless CH for her integrity and grit 🙏💪😇
One BILLION thumbs up! This woman is a true American Hero and someone girls will look up to from now on! What a strong woman who single handedly save American democracy!! Thank God for this young woman! Thank you!
Well, his law firm believes Cassidy Hutchinson, don't they? As well, do we all, don't we? 🇺🇸
Wow! This is more incredible every day! thanks Mr O,Donnell, well told.
Friday morning while it's freezing outside, I'm crying over my coffee. My heart goes out to her. Oh child, I just want to give you a mother's hug. Thank you for your courage and sacrifice. This definitely changed your life. You will always look at that person in the mirror with respect. And thank you Lawrence and staff for another great reporting.
We need more people like her (and you) in this world, it’d make life a little more sane.
Gigi, your quote really spoke to me. I am a mother too, and I hope my children and more people stand by their convictions of truth and honor. With America going insane, we need more people like Cassidy to stand up and speak the truth loud and clear.
It makes me feel better that I am not the only fool in tears of happiness and hope. I was so afraid that we will lose this country to corruption.
We were all afraid. In fact, the fight isn’t over yet. But this young woman is such an inspiration. Let’s not forget that everyone who testified to this committee was Republican and chose country over party. I’ve been reading the report all day, and it reads like a crime novel.
Wow...what a moment between Hutchinson and Butterfield ...great piece Lawrence 💜
She’s amazing, really the perfect example of how any of these men embroiled in legal troubles could have chosen a different route.
Poor Cassidy had been raised and educated to be a "conservative" all her life. No one had told her that lying would be crucial to maintaining her conservative credentials.
Maga is not Conservative. Liz Cheney is a bonafied Conservative. Judge Ludig and Rusty Bowers are true patriotic Conservatives. Maga act like they answer to Putin and the Russian oligarchs, the Russian mob, who are apparently a source of campaign donations for them. I guess, if she didn't before, she knows this now.
Lying is lesson and practice #1 in conservative philosophy. It comes from denying progress that doesn't individually benefit the powerful who made their gains under older previous systems.
But of course it is a fool's way of thinking, what would this world, this civilization and our society be without human progress...
We would still be living in caves honoring the largest, strongest tribal leader.
What a brave, smart, honorable young woman
This was just fantastic. I had no idea about Alexander Butterfield’s pivotal testimony 45 years ago. Thanks for bringing him forward to the present day and linking him to Ms. Hutchinson’s equally pivotal testimony. This really moved me. They both deserve a Medal of Honor.
Oh, for a mere tenth of Ms. Hutchinson's compass and maturity when I was her age! Long life and happiness to her!
Incredibly show tonight.. listening to her makes everyone wants to take her in and protect her..
Only Democrats and a few decent, God fearing Republicans. The maga mob would throw her to the sharks😩.....in fact, they are the sharks 🦈 🦈 🦈 🦈 🦈 🦈 🦈
Cassidy Hutchinson's situation was exponentially greater in several ways:
1. Social Media exists
2. Weapons of war are now commonplace in society
3. The violent extremists brutal threats and assaults on women, particularly smart any attractive women these days
4. Technological advances could provide more ways to destroy her life, finances and physical safety
She was truly brave and should be commended. I hope she is able to financially support herself and finds an incredible NEW employer.
Very true. The points you make here are well taken. Even John Dean and Steven Butterfield didn't have to deal with the tremendous additional pressures you cite.
I Think that this channel is very good news
*Amen, Amy. AMEN!*
@@TheSpicehandler *Alexander Butterfield. ✌🏼
I believe she’ll do quite well.
This is an amazing story, beautifully told. Truly inspiring. Well done!
Quadruply impressed by her courage, learning now about the shabby treatment she got from her father.
Her mother is just a different band of rotten than dad is.
Her mom is the type of mother that loves her daughter's husband more than she loves her own daughter.
Her father is a fool if there ever was one!!
Thank you Cassidy Hutchinson.
The good news is she gets to pick his nursing home.
He will “ remember “ her in his time of need
If you put a known criminal over the fate of your own daughter, you are not much of a parent.
Courage! So proud of this young woman who's standing up when the men shake in their corner.
She has what those so called men don't, balls 😏😉
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ believe in Thor or face the horrors of Helheim. Your god was nailed to a cross. My god carries a hammer.
Per Insider "Cassidy Hutchinson said she lied in her original deposition to the House Capitol-riot committee.
She said she initially told the panel she hadn't heard of Trump lunging at a Secret Service agent.
But soon after her deposition, she said she told her attorney, "I lied, I lied, I lied."
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ Shame on you for highjacking this segment with your bigotry. You behave pitiful.
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ Lord Jesus Christ is the complete opposite of evil tramp
