 Good day. May 40 here. So I was riveted by Cassidy Hutchinson's testimony, like the rest of the American people just absolutely riveted by her damning testimony about Donald Trump. Did you know that he had a bad temper and that he threw things? And when his team was told that the January 6 demonstration might turn violent, they didn't immediately shut it down. So Cassidy Hutchinson seems like a truth teller, like very attractive young woman. And I thought, wow, this is just what we need. Here's someone that America can rally behind right now. And then I started thinking, why does she remind me of the Tracy Fleck character in election? So did you see the 1999 movie, Election, do you know about the novel that it was based on? So Tracy Fleck is a very ambitious young woman who uses people, uses and abuses people. She gets the protagonist's best friend fired after she has a sexual affair with him. And near the end of the movie, she's seen getting into a limousine of a congressman. So what exactly is the Washington Post trying to tell us in this story? Yeah, Reese Witherspoon played the Tracy Fleck character. And why am I getting these Tracy Fleck Reese Witherspoon vibes from Cassidy Hutchinson? All right? She's a very attractive young woman. And so how did she get to such a position of power? So she was one of the youngest, she was one of the least experienced members of the White House staff, yet she was effectively operated as the chief of staff. So how did she get there? Now, I'm the kind of guy who believes she got there purely on her own merits, that she was just that formidable organized and competent. And that's why she rose to the top. I hate it when people try to debunk the success of women and just attribute it to their looks. I don't like her forehead to chin ratio, says the chat. I don't trust her. God forbid, God forbid. So Representative Jamie Raskin from Maryland says she's been an unvarnished truth teller. I find her to be an encouraging, inspiring figure because she is so young. And she has not allowed her idealism and belief in government to be jaded and poisoned by the people around her. What, what a beautiful sentiment. Baruch Hashem, Baruch Hashem. Now, what is the Washington Post trying to tell us here between the lines? So to give some background, 30 years ago, the Washington Post published a story about George H. W. Bush and how he had this woman who worked for him in many different roles over the years. And the Washington Post published that she served President Bush in a variety of positions. So is that what the Washington Post is trying to tell us here about Cassidy Hutchinson? So she had extraordinary access and inordinate power. Some derisively called it chief Cassidy. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's staff asked White House aides why she was in unlegislative meetings. So why was she chief Cassidy? Why was she in unlegislative meetings? I believe it's purely because of her hyper-competence and her truth-telling abilities and her courage and her strength to be able to speak truth to power. That's what I think, but I might be naive. So apparently she had a sudden rise to the center of power. Now, I just want to believe this is just because she was so competent and such a strong truth-teller. Sudden rise. Beautiful young woman has a sudden rise to the center of power. She interned for Representative Steve Scalise and Senator Ted Cruz when she applied for a White House internship. Now during the first impeachment trial, Cassidy Hutchinson grew close to Chief of Staff Mark Meadows. Okay, so they grew spiritually close. They grew politically close. They grew emotionally close. They grew physically close. Okay, when the Washington Post says that someone, you know, a young, beautiful woman grew close to an older man in power, come on, I didn't fall off the turn-up truck. I wasn't born yesterday, right? So she was then a legislative affairs staffer. So we know that she's an expert in legislative affairs. She grows close to Mark Meadows, and he's named Chief of Staff in March 2020, and he immediately elevates her. So is the Washington Post telling us that she was elevating him? She eventually became his principal assistant. Okay, this is a 24-year-old with virtually no experience, and she becomes the principal assistant to the White House Chief of Staff. Maybe she's just strictly on merits, but this is not how the game usually works. She's given an office right next to the Chief of Staff Mark Meadows. She's just a few doors away from the Oval Office. This doesn't happen. Now, maybe it's just purely on ability. So Cassidy Hutchinson is always by Mark Meadows' side. He would always insist that she'd be in the room at all meetings. So there are all these meetings that you would expect to just be principal level or just very small amount of senior staff level, but Mark Meadows would always insist that she'd be in the room. She was largely there to take notes. It was unusual to have a junior aide to either be in principal level or senior staff level, but it was his call. So we deferred to him. What exactly was the nature of this very close relationship with Mark Meadows? She was viewed throughout the White House as speaking for Mark Meadows. You know what type of people quickly get viewed as speaking for a powerful man? Women who are sleeping with that powerful man. If you're sleeping with a powerful man, people pick up those vibes and they understand that you're speaking for the powerful man. When she was giving other staff members orders and always saying Mark once or the chief says this, the chief being Mark Meadows. That sounds like someone in a pretty intimate relationship with Mark Meadows. So Cassidy Hutchinson traveled constantly with Mark Meadows. Okay, traveling constantly with someone, attractive young woman, traveling constantly with a powerful order man, always by his side, speaking for him, giving orders on his behalf. When people travel, they have far more opportunity to get particularly close with each other. So Cassidy Hutchinson was going on Air Force One. She was answering Mark Meadows calls. She was getting texts from members of Congress. So key members of the White House who wanted to get a message to Trump or to Mark Meadows would often go through Cassidy Hutchinson. What is this Washington Post story really trying to tell us?
