A House subcommittee investigating the January 6 committee has accused former vice-chair Liz Cheney of witness tampering. The report alleges Cheney improperly interacted with Cassidy Hutchinson, a former White House aide, without her attorney present.
One of the most memorable moments in the January 6 committee’s hearings was when former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson described Donald Trump ’s actions during the attack, recounting his demand to be taken to the Capitol and alleging he got into a physical fight with a Secret Service agent when he was told no.
Republicans have since unveiled evidence that they say proves the fight never happened, and in its report released yesterday, a House administration oversight subcommittee that investigated the January 6 committee accused Liz Cheney of witness tampering for interacting with Hutchinson without her attorney’s knowledge. Cheney was the vice-chair of the committee, and the report focuses much attention on her, saying she “colluded” with Hutchinson without the knowledge of her attorney, and used the bipartisan panel to attack Trump. “Based on the evidence obtained by this Subcommittee, numerous federal laws were likely broken by Liz Cheney, the former Vice Chair of the January 6 Select Committee,” the report states.
