On Tuesday, the House Jan. 6 committee released transcripts from former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson. Hutchinson, who worked for White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, was privy to some of the most intimate and incriminating conversations that took place during the Trump administration. She has never disappointed with her jaw-dropping testimony, and the latest revelations from her are no different.
One particularly interesting detail is Hutchinson's recollection that right-wing Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia had, on multiple occasions, discussed QAnon conspiracy theorists attending the pre-riot rally that Trump held on Jan. 6, a day he had vowed would be "wild."
He was right. The screaming, feces-smearing, police-beating horde is evidence of that. And a jury has found that a QAnon supporter contributed to that chaos.
Back in June, Hutchinson testified before the House committee that Greene met with Meadows in Georgia in the lead-up to Jan. 6 and told him that a lot of QAnon supporters from among her constituents would be there.
Note: By then, an FBI field office had already warned that QAnon was becoming a domestic terrorism threat. And Greene had become known as one of the movement's most prominent cheerleaders.
"Ms. Greene came up and began talking to us about QAnon and QAnon going to the rally," Hutchinson testified, adding that Greene said that "she had a lot of constituents that are QAnon, and they'll all be there."
According to Hutchinson, Greene told Trump something similar about QAnon that night.
"'These are my constituents,'" Hutchinson said, quoting Greene.
Hutchinson said Greene "showed [Trump] a picture of them, saying: Those are all my people."
All of this seems to strengthen the argument that Free Speech for People activists put forward in their unsuccessful 14th Amendment lawsuit challenging Greene's eligibility to serve in Congress, citing the amendment's insurrection clause. In a court hearing, Greene countered the group's constitutional claims, insisting she was simply exercising her First Amendment right to free speech with her baseless claims that the 2020 election had been "stolen" from Trump.
If Hutchinson's sworn testimony is true (and I have no reason to believe it isn't), it would mean Greene specifically told Trump she had knowledge that violent, pro-Trump cultists would show up at a Jan. 6 rally that was promoted as a last-ditch effort to reverse the results of the 2020 election.
Sure sounds like insurrection to me. Marjorie Taylor Greene isn't just unfit to serve in Congress. By the letter of the law, it would seem she should be ineligible.

Let's put fat ass under oath and see if he denies knowing Q Anon would be at the rally. Its time we get things from the horse's ass mouth.
NT members or are you counting yourself as part of DoJ?
We The People, American voters, deserve to know the truth!
I don’t disagree, but don’t understand JR’s plea to put him under oath, who is JR pleading to?
Sometimes you should just read the comments without speculating.
I did read and didn’t speculate but rather asked you for an unanswered clarification.
So they were there, now this begs the question that I asked before. Why didn't the J6 commission dig into Q Anon to find out who was behind it? To me the Q Anon group was the actual threat to the capitol on J6, remember I actually had a conversation with a Q believer and it was his belief that they had to get inside the capitol building to get the secret documents of the deep state which were in Pelosi's possession.
The reason he gave for believing the Q Anon conspiracies was a bit shocking and concerning because it sounded like a federal intelligence plot to recruit people to spread propaganda. It involved an alleged plot by the government to set off a nuclear bomb in Missouri and he was given the task of the online work to track and expose the plot, Q told him that he was successful and saved many lives and because of this he now held the highest in security clearances, higher than the POTUS, and that's where Q started feeding him all the BS conspiracies and he in turn spread them.
What's Q Anon?
Some small fringe group that no one has ever heard of?
Or an organized movement with thousands, if not millions, of members.
And by the way....there was no insurrection, just a brief, unorganized demonstration that got out of hand.
f Hutchinson's sworn testimony is true (and I have no reason to believe it isn't), it would mean Greene specifically told Trump she had knowledge that violent, pro-Trump cultists would show up at a Jan. 6 rally that was promoted as a last-ditch effort to reverse the results of the 2020 election.

This is incredibly dumb. Even for the Joy Reid blog.
Joy Reid might actually be dumber than Qanon. That would be quite the contest.
Another article by John proving the brilliance of Mitch McConnell, Merrick Garland has to be the most incompetent piece of crap to hold the job of attorney general. Just think, if Barry had his way this idiot would be on the Supreme Court.
We can't really shame the Maga folks too much about Q, after all I have friends who are liberal and believe men can give birth to babies. We are in the age of fantasy politics. The Q was definitely silly but so is believing men can get pregnant and have periods.
No, you don't. You might have liberal friends who recognize that a person can be born with a uterus but identifies as a male and they respect that persons chosen gender identity. The horse shit lie about liberals believing 'men' can get pregnant is beyond moronic and is nothing but rightwing conservative twisted misinformation.
Do your research...many liberals can't even define what a "woman" is, including the newest member of the Supreme Court.
That reminds me of the CBS morning show with Gayle King and they were doing a segment of how the covid vaccines were safe an effective for "birthing persons", they were all using this term, then they interviewed Fauci and he kept saying pregnant women and the look on their faces, especially Gayle's, was hilarious.
Sure they can, and they have. It's the ignorant stubborn religious conservatives who simply don't like the new definition and prefer to believe that a woman can and should be defined only by their genitals.
So the definition that was acceptable for generations now has to be changed because of a minority of butt hurt people that have nothing better to do than complain about everything.
Well... if they want to allow redefining.......
