What happened in the aftermath of January 6th?
Welcome to the Tucker Carlson Show. We bring you stories that have not been showcased anywhere else. And they're not censored, of course, because we're not gatekeepers. We are honest brokers here to tell you what we think you need to know and do it honestly. Check out all of our content at TuckerCarlson.com. Here's the episode. Okay, so I think a lot of us who were watching the January 6th committee hearings, et cetera, particularly those of us who knew Liz Cheney very well, began to suspect that, wow, this is not unfolding in a way that's recognizable. And then you begin to think, well, this could be completely illegitimate. And then by the end, I'm thinking, and I'm texting this to Liz Cheney, by the way, as it's happening, this seems like police state stuff. You were in the middle of it. So just if you wouldn't mind setting the story for us, what was your involvement in the January 6th aftermath?
Yeah. So on the aftermath side, I'm a lawyer and I'd represented a number of witnesses who were giving testimony before the January 6th committee. Yep. Mostly uneventful things.
What kind of lawyer were you?
What role did Liz Cheney play in the January 6th Committee?
So I'm a political lawyer, if you can call such a thing. I'm sort of the living embodiment of a lot of the sort of dysfunction of Washington, D.C. that you need to have such a thing as a political lawyer.
Fair enough.
of dealing with all of the sort of regulatory world of if you want to engage with politicians, if you want to give them money, if you want to lobby them, if you want to give them gifts, if you want to advocate, there's a whole myriad of regulations that surround that, which create professions for people like me to help people navigate what are the rules of the road if I want to communicate. And that includes interfacing with government investigations, oversight hearings, all of those various activities. And so for 30 years, I've been a relatively anonymous lawyer whose job it's been to help people just follow the rules so that they can be heard. They have their opportunity to petition government. That's been my background.
I had a sort of career transforming moment where I went from running the political law compliance shop for months. one of the largest law firms in the world, a big major international law firm that had massive offices on K Street, heading up that political office to being asked by President Trump to be his deputy White House counsel. So for the first two years of his presidency, they decided that they were going to need someone who had been around the block for a little while to help them navigate. Because remember, unlike most presidents, incoming governments, which are staffed by people who have been in government their entire lives, and they just continue perpetuating the machine of being government people who are now working in the White House.
Who is Cassidy Hutchinson and why is her testimony pivotal?
That's how we do things in D.C.
Except in 2016, when President Trump comes in and is not only bringing in people who really don't come from the government background, they come from successful business backgrounds and traditionally not even so much from public companies, just not used to the fact that there's myriad Washington rules that are foreign to anyone who's not been part of that world.
They think that because voters chose Trump, they have power, but they don't realize voters have no power.
Correct. Without a doubt. And my job was to be the person who came in and really helped orient people to how do you navigate this bureaucracy that's called Washington, D.C.? How do you deal with all of the rules that regulate getting the job done that you were elected for? So I was The deputy White House counsel, whose job it was to make sure that people understood and followed the rules. Now, of course, fast forwarding, it became entirely too delicious. If you have the opportunity to make ethics allegations against Trump's ethics lawyer, that's a story that's too good to check. And so I became known after having gone into that work and having worked for the president. I did that for two years. And then I moved effectively to the other side of the gates.
