‘Things might get real, real bad,’ Meadows warned Trump aide Cassidy Hutchinson ahead of Jan. 6

Ex-Trump White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson testified Tuesday that former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows warned her that “things might get real, real bad on Jan. 6,” four days before the Capitol riot in 2021.

Ms. Hutchinson told the House select committee investigating the attack that the warning came after a conversation she had with attorney Rudolph W. Giuliani at the White House on the evening of Jan. 2, 2021. She said Mr. Giuliani told her that Mr. Trump planned to go in person to the Capitol on Jan. 6, the day Congress was scheduled to certify the presidential election for Democrat Joe Biden.
