[kpete]

Lofgren: I will say Mr. Cipollone did appear voluntarily and answered a whole variety of questions. He did not contradict the testimony of other witnesses…

15. Stonewall wasn't just

A nightclub in New York
Or what Nixon tried to do
Or what Reagan wanted
Yada yada yada....

2. Fingers crossed all this matters more than the 2 impeachments

[DENVERPOPS]

14. I am with you

but sadly, I think not.......I suspect that all will all skate.........

3. That alone is explosive.

6. and...

It probably means Tony may have been lying.

I suspect perjury charges for some may be forthcoming in time.

[COL Mustard]

17. Tony?

Whozzat?

[reACTIONary]

18. Tony Ornato... no msg

[COL Mustard]

24. Oh.

Thanks!

[2naSalit]

22. Tony Ornato...

Who seems to be prone to lying about things he does and says. I couldn't remember his name. He was mentioned in several events described by Ms. Hutchinson in her testimony last week.

4. Wishing and praying

Not holding my breath though.

[drray23]

5. that is the nail in the coffin for Trump and associates

If Cippolone did not contradict previous witnesses this means he confirmed all the explosive stuff Ms Hutchison testified to.

[triron]

8. Indeed!

...

[FB47243]

20. Provided he was asked

Only if he was asked regarding specific testimony. Shouldn’t assume he confirmed everything she did testify to. Maybe that’s why it took 7 hours however. Certain caveats were placed on what could be asked as well I am sure.

[former9thward]

21. No

If he confirmed then that is what he would have said. "Not contradicting" is vague and almost meaningless.

[tenderfoot]

7. You mean those Trumper Secret Service guys were lying about the limo/suv incident?

Oh my, I need to pour myself a drink.

[DENVERPOPS]

16. They weren't merely "Trump Secret Service guys"

They were "TRUMPHUMPING Secret Service guys, along with the ones that tried to kidnap Pence away from the capitol......

I am very worried about how many Capitol Police, DC Police, Nat Guard, DOJ, Secret Service, Fed Marshalls and members of the Military are also Trumphumpers........

[dchill]

19. You KNOW they're still in there. Standing back and...

... standing by. And collecting paychecks.

[InstantGratification]

23. Not even that, they haven't spoken at all on the subject

The actual people that Hutchinson testified about did not refute her testimony. An anonymous source told a media outlet that they denied her account. The actual people she testified about have not come forward themselves to say it didn't happen the way she said it did. Not in a press release and most definitely not under oath. Until someone goes under oath to contradict her, those claims don't mean jack shit.

[BigmanPigman]

9. He didn't assert the 5th either...good!

[Ohio Joe]

10. I'm really looking forward to seeing the transcript...

Should be good

[Baitball Blogger]

11. I hope he knows who was on the phone with Meadows.

[Evolve Dammit]

12. Yeah, that is a huge question and goes to the heart 'the events" of 1/6.
