Cassidy Hutchinson (May): Meadows burned papers in his WH office fireplace after meeting Scott Perry

05/26/2022 02:08 PM EDT

Then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows burned papers in his office after meeting with a House Republican who was working to challenge the 2020 election, according to testimony the Jan. 6 select committee has heard from one of his former aides.

Cassidy Hutchinson, who worked under Meadows when he was former President Donald Trump’s chief of staff, told the panel investigating the Capitol attack that she saw Meadows incinerate documents after a meeting in his office with Rep. Scott Perry (R-Pa.). A person familiar with the testimony described it on condition of anonymity.


The Meadows-Perry meeting came in the weeks after Election Day 2020, as Trump and his allies searched for ways to reverse the election results.


It’s unclear whether Hutchinson told the committee which specific papers were burnt, and if federal records laws required the materials’ preservation. Meadows’ destruction of papers is a key focus for the select committee, and the person familiar with the testimony said investigators pressed Hutchinson for details about the issue for more than 90 minutes during a recent deposition.

1. "Could've waited for me to hard reset it first!"

"Sheesh!"

2. Yes, let me erase all data after my lawyer and I have gone over it! Yep, we above the law!

What is going on in this country when some are not above the law!?

[dchill]

3. "...if that was their wish..."

Their WISH was to get the phone with everything on it, not erased. Wish fulfilled, I hope.

[Cartoonist]

4. Did he expect them to give him time to scrub his phone?

It doesn't work that way.

[halfulglas]

5. Such meanies!!

Wonder how many other GOPers are looking at their phones wondering if they should get rid of them?

[kentuck]

6. Have Kevin and other Republicans come out to defend the Congressman like they did Trump?

Or has it put a damper on them?

7. "Harvard, U of Delaware, Georgetown Law"

I guess I'm not looking at the right links, but I don't see anything about these schools.

In what way are they "screwed" and why?

[Deminpenn]

8. Not the schools, Perry is the one

who's screwed. However, it reflects poorly on the schools that he's one of their graduates.

[Effete Snob]

9. WTF?

He didn't go to any of those schools.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Perry_(politician)#Early_life_and_education

In 1980, he graduated from Northern High School in Dillsburg and Cumberland-Perry Vo-Tech School in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania.In 1991, Perry obtained a B.S. in business administration and management from Pennsylvania State University. In July 2012, he received a master's degree in strategic planning from the United States Army War College.

Unless you have some other information, it does not appear he attended any of the schools noted in the OP to be "screwed" in some undefined way.

Joe Biden is a graduate of the University of Delaware.

10. Just translating the OP title

Didn't bother to check where Perry went to school.

[Effete Snob]

11. Well, I did, which is why I wonder why those schools are mentioned in the title

Makes no sense.

The linked twitter thread and the article linked in the twitter thread make no mention of those schools.

I must be missing something somewhere, but it sure isn't obvious, and I guess the poster doesn't care.

13. Sorry must have pulled up a different Scott Perry in my google search one who went to those schools

n/t

[patphil]

12. Obviously the FBI felt he'd destroy the phone if they expressed interest in it's contents.

Note: Simple erasure isn't good enough to insure data can't be retrieved. The FBI has a forensic lab that specializes in recovering erased data.
