Republicans dismiss Hutchinson testimony, pointing to factual disputes

Former President Trump’s most vocal defenders in the House are working to undercut former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson’s explosive testimony at Tuesday’s Jan. 6 Select Committee hearing, calling it “hearsay” and pointing to disputes over facts she presented.

Hutchinson, who was an aide to White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, relayed fly-on-the-wall firsthand knowledge of conversations between Trump and top officials.
