from a transcript of a Chris Hayes segment back in April:
A source tells Lowell that Trump gave Ornato a big White House job, Deputy White House Chief of Staff for operations in part because of his loyalty. Now, Ornato previously helped coordinate Trump`s infamous marched through Lafayette Square for a photo op with the Bible and assisted in planning of many Trump campaign rallies.
On January 6, he was overseeing Secret Service movements. Carol Leonnig and Phil Rucker Report that while Pence was in that secure underground area at the Capitol, Ornato, right, told Pence`s National Security Adviser Keith Kellogg that the Vice President security detail was planning to move him to Joint Base Andrews.
And Kellogg replied -- again, this is the reporting of Leonnig and Rucker, you can`t do that, Tony. Leave him where he`s at. He`s got a job to do. I know you guys too well. You`ll fly him to Alaska if you have a chance. Don`t do it.
Well, I don`t know. That sure sounds like it was a Trump loyalist in charge of Pence`s security movements attempting to help Donald Trump effectuate his coup by removing the Vice President from the building where he was to oversee the peaceful transfer of power. Congressman Jamie Raskin lays it out clearly.
