Former President continued to rail against committee witness Cassidy Hutchinson six days after she delivered her testimony.  
'Lyin' Cassidy Hutchinson, who the Fake News Media refuses to properly reveal, recently called the January 6 Unselect Committee "B.S." Gee, that wasn't reported by LameStream!' Trump posted to his Truth Social network on Monday. 
on text messages Hutchinson purportedly sent asking for legal assistance through the American Conservative Union's First Amendment Fund. 
'Hey (redacted)! This is Cassidy Hutchinson. Kind of a random question, but do you still work for the Schlapp's at the ACU?' she said, referring to ACU head Matt Schlapp. 
The person texted back that they still worked for the ACU - which puts on the Conservative Political Action Conference every year. 
'Do you happen to know a First Amendment fund POC I could reach out to? I was subpoenaed in early Nov., but the committee waited to serve me until last week (after Ben's deposition)' she continued. 'I had to accept service because the U.S. Marshalls came to my apartment last Wednesday, but I haven't made contact with the Committee. I'm just on a tight timeline and just trying to figure out what my options are to deal with this bs.' 
Schlapp tweeted last week that Hutchinson had reached out to his organization for help. 
'Ms. Hutchinson approached @CPAC for help through our First Amendment Fund which has helped J6 political victims defend themselves,' he tweeted the day she testified. 'I am pleased we did not assist her performance today.' 
'Relaying WH hallway gossip as fact does not qualify as first person testimony,' Schlapp added.

For days, the former president has ripped into his former aide - using the Truth Social platform as he remains banned from Twitter.  
'The lies and fabricated stories being told to the partisan Highly Unselect Committee, not only by the phony social climber who got caught yesterday, but by many others, are a disgrace to our, in serious decline, Nation,' the ex-president wrote.  
Trump bemoaned that there was 'No cross examination, no real , no lawyers, NO NOTHING.' 
'Fake stories and an all Fake Narrative being produced, with ZERO pushback allowed,' he continued. 'Unselects should be forced to disband.' 
He ended the post with a phrase he had previously used about the Russia investigation: 'WITCH HUNT!' 
On Wednesday, former President Donald Trump was back on Truth Social railing against Cassidy Hutchinson calling her a 'phony social climber' and claiming that she lied. HE also said the January 6 committee should be 'forced to disband' 
The former president pushed that Cassidy Hutchinson was only playing ball with the Democrat-led committee because he didn't keep her on his payroll after he left office in January 2021 and relocated to Mar-a-Lago 
He also said her anecdote about him trying to grab the Beast's steering wheel after he was told he couldn't go to the Capitol on January 6 'Fake' and 'fraudulent' and denied testimony about how he would throw food and dishes when angry 
Trump has been trying to hurt the reputation of Hutchinson since Tuesday's surprise hearing of the House select committee on January 6.  
'I hardly know who this person, Cassidy Hutchinson, is, other than I heard very negative things about her (a total phony and "leaker"), and when she requested to go with certain others of the team to  after my having served a full term in office, I personally turned her request down,' Trump wrote as the 25-year-old testimony was ongoing.
Hutchinson worked in Trump's White House on the legislative affairs team and under Chief of Staff Mark Meadows.  
She provided embarrassing anecdotes about Trump's behavior during her testimony - including that he tried to grab the wheel of the presidential limo, the 'Beast,' after he was told he couldn't go to the Building on January 6 and threw food at the wall after Attorney General Bill Barr said there was no widespread fraud in the 2020 election. 
'Why did she want to go with us if she felt we were so terrible?' Trump said Tuesday. 
He suggested that Hutchinson only played ball with the Democrat-led committee because he didn't give her a job at Mar-a-Lago after he departed the White House in January 2021. 
'I understand that she was very upset and angry that I didn't want her to go, or be a member of the team,' Trump said. 'She is bad news!' 
In another post on Truth social, Trump also accused Hutchinson of changing her story. 
'She changed lawyers a couple of days ago, and with it, her story totally changed! SHOCKER???' the ex-president alleged. 
The former president fumed over the testimony Hutchinson delivered about him throwing temper tantrums. 
'I NEVER SAID, "MIKE PENCE DESERVES IT (to be hung). Another made up statement by a third rate social climber!' he posted. Trump had made a similar remark about Pence to ABC News' Jonathan Karl that corroborated Hutchinson's testimony

'Her Fake story that I tried to grab the steering wheel of the White House Limousine in order to steer it to the Capitol Building is "sick" and fraudulent, very much like the Unselect Committee itself - Wouldn't even have been possible to do such a ridiculous thing,' Trump wrote.

'Her story of me throwing food is also false…and why would SHE have to clean it up, I hardly knew who she was?' the former president added. 
After Hutchinson's testimony concluded, Trump continued to go after her on Truth social. 
'Her body language is that of a total bull…. artist. Fantasy Land!' he wrote.

The 25-year-old has firsthand information about the former president and his top aides' movements on the day of and leading up to the Capitol riot
'I NEVER SAID, "MIKE PENCE DESERVES IT (to be hung). Another made up statement by a third rate social climber!' he posted. 
Trump had made a similar remark about Pence to ABC News' Jonathan Karl that corroborated Hutchinson's testimony.  
'A Total Phony!!!' the former president added. 
'There is no cross examination of this so-called witness. This is a Kangaroo Court!!' Trump fumed. 
Trump has a history of turning on former aides and ex-political allies, a roster that now includes former Vice President Mike Pence and current Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. 
During the hearing, Hutchinson recalled an impromptu meeting on January 6 after Trump returned to the White House after speaking bs2web at the Ellipse she had with former Deputy Chief of Staff Tony Ornato and Bobby Engel, the head of Trump's security detail. 
'Did you hear what effing happened in the Beast?' she said Engel asked her. 
She replied that she hadn't heard. 
'Tony proceeded to tell me that when the president got in the Beast he was under the impression from Mr. Meadows that the off-the-record movement to the Capitol was still possible and likely to happen, but that Bobby had more information,' Hutchinson said. 
Trump, Hutchinson said, thought they were going up to the Capitol - like he had told his crowd of supporters he would do. 
This was in the hours before the attack. 
'When Bobby had relayed to him we're not, we don't have the assets to do it, it's not secure, we're going back to the West Wing, the president had a very strong, very angry response,' Hutchinson continued. 
She was told that Trump said something like: 'I'm the effing president, take me up to the Capitol now!'

Engel, she said, reiterated that they were headed back to the White House. 
'The president reached up toward the front of the vehicle to grab at the steering wheel, Mr. Engel grabbed his arm and said, "Sir, you need to take your hand off the steering wheel, we're going back to the West Wing, we're not going to the Capitol,"' she said. 
'Mr. Trump then used his free hand to lunge toward Bobby Engel and when Mr. Ornato had recounted this story to me he motioned toward his clavicles,' Hutchinson said, as a sign the president went for Engel's throat.  
GOP Rep. Liz Cheney then asked Hutchinson if Engel or Ornato ever changed their stories. 
'Neither Mr. Ornato or Mr. Engel told me ever that it was untrue,' Hutchinson testified. 
After Hutchinson's testimony wrapped, multiple news outlets reported that Secret Service officials planned to dispute her claims about what happened in the presidential SUV. 
From there, Hutchinson talked about Trump throwing dishes when being served with bad news. 
She said she remembered 'hearing noise' on the heels of the Associated Press article being released in which Barr confirmed that Trump's widespread election fraud claims weren't real. 
Chief of Staff Mark Meadows was summoned to Trump's office. 
When Meadows returned Hutchinson said she walked down toward the White House dining room. 
'And I noticed that the door was propped open and the valet was inside the dining room changing the tablecloth off of the dining room table,' she said. 'He motioned for me to come in and then pointed toward the front of the room near the fireplace mantel and the TV.' 
'Where I first noticed there was ketchup dripping down the wall,' she continued. 'And there's a shattered porcelain plate on the floor.' 
'The valet had articulated that the president was extremely angry at the attorney general's AP interview and had thrown his lunch against the wall,' she said, explaining that she then helped with the clean-up.
Cheney then asked Hutchinson if this was typical Trump behavior. 
'There were several times throughout my tenure with the chief of staff that I was aware of him either throwing dishes or flicking the table cloth to let all of the contents of the table go onto the floor and likely break or go everywhere,' Hutchinson volunteered.
