Tomorrow nights hearing should be epic. I don’t think they’ve done a prime time hearing since the first one. I wanna watch live but I think I’m playing baseball with some coworkers after work so I’ll tape it
An aide to Peter Navarro, after testifying, attacked the committee as "anti white", went on sexist tirade against Cassidy Hutchinson, claimed he is being persecuted because he is a Christian, and for good measure blamed the Jews. Did he miss anything?
Melania Trump says she was 'fulfilling' her duties as first lady on January 6 and tears into Stephanie Grisham for not keeping her up to date so she could 'condemn' the violence Former First Lady Melania Trump said Thursday that she was 'fulfilling' her official duties on January 6, 2021 She blasted her former Chief of Staff Stephanie Grisham, and said had she been 'fully informed' of the violence she would have 'immediately' denounced it Melania Trump blamed Grisham for keeping her in the dark, saying it amounted to a 'dereliction of duty' The former first lady spoke to Fox News Digital ahead of the final January 6 House select committee hearing, which will take place primetime Thursday Grisham previously said that Melania Trump had been in the middle of a photoshoot - capturing the White House's rugs - during the attack Grisham also shared a text exchange with the former first lady in which she answers 'no' when Grisham asks if she wants to condemn the violence 'I was unaware of what was simultaneously transpiring at the U.S. Capitol Building,' Melania Trump said Thursday She then went after Grisham, saying she didn't brief her and wasn't in Washington, D.C. on January 6 'I stood behind Ms. Grisham after her failed stint as White House Press Secretary and welcomed her back to the East Wing,' the former first lady also said Former First Lady Melania Trump said Thursday that she was 'fulfilling' her official duties on January 6, 2021 and if she would have been 'fully informed' of the violence taking place at the Capitol Building she would have immediately denounced it. She then blamed her former Chief of Staff Stephanie Grisham for keeping her in the dark, saying it amounted to a 'dereliction of duty.' The former first lady spoke to Fox News Digital ahead of the final January 6 House select committee hearing, which will take place primetime Thursday night, and revolve around former President Donald Trump's inaction while the Capitol was being ransacked. Grisham has cooperated with the committee's investigation and chimed in throughout the hearings. Last last month she shared a visual of a text message exchange that purportedly showed Melania Trump answering 'no' after Grisham asked if she wanted to say 'there is no place for lawlessness & violence' amid the attack. 'On January 6, 2021, I was fulfilling one of my duties as First Lady of the United States of America, and accordingly, I was unaware of what was simultaneously transpiring at the U.S. Capitol Building,' Melania Trump told Fox News Digital on Thursday. 'As with all First Ladies who preceded me, it was my obligation to record the contents of the White House's historic rooms, including taking archival photographs of all the renovations,' she continued. She said with several months of advance planning she had assembled a group of 'photographers, archivists, and designers to work with me in the White House to ensure perfect execution.' 'As required, we scheduled January 6, 2021, to complete the work on behalf of our Nation,' she told Fox in a statement, adding 'this is a very significant undertaking and requires great care, attention to detail, and concentration - both in the planning and execution.' Melania Trump then pushed that Grisham failed to make her aware of the severity of the attack. She said she had 'always been very supportive of my former Chief of Staff, Stephanie Grisham.' 'I stood behind Ms. Grisham after her failed stint as White House Press Secretary and welcomed her back to the East Wing,' the former first lady continued. Grisham worked for the Trump campaign and was pulled into the East Wing shortly after inauguration, only to move to the West Wing to serve as White House press secretary from April 2020 to January 2021 - but never held a briefing. Grisham then moved back to the East Wing to serve as Melania Trump's chief of staff. 'Ms. Grisham was not in the White Hosue on January 6, and her behavior in her role as Chief of Staff ultimately amounts to dereliction of duty,' Melania Trump said, explaining that 'traditionally, the First Lady's Chief of Staff provides detailed briefings surrounding our Nation's important issues.' 'In fact, Ms. Grisham failed to provide insight and information into the events surrounding January 6 as she had abandoned her post in Washington, D.C.,' Melania Trump continued. 'Shamefully, this behavior has only partially become public knowledge; yet was consistent for Ms. Grisham.' Melania Trump articulated: 'I always condemn violence.' 'Had I been fully informed of all the details, naturally, I would have immediately denounced the violence that occurred at the Capitol Building,' she said. 'And while Ms. Grisham's behavior is disappointing, it is not surprising or an isolated incident.' 'This is not the first time a former staffer has tried to maintain relevancy and profit by using my name to create a false narrative,' the former first lady added. Grisham shared an image of her text message conversation with Melania Trump on the heels of former Mark Meadows aide Cassidy Hutchinson's blockbuster testimony before the House panel. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...s-ex-chief-staff-ahead-January-6-hearing.html
