10:14

SECRETARY.

10:14

LIKE EVERYONE ON THE TRUMP

10:15

CAMPAIGN, NO SERIOUS CAMPAIGN

10:19

WOULD HIRE THEM TO DO ANYTHING.

10:21

HOPE HICKS LIVES ON THE DONALD

10:22

TRUMP SIDE OF OUR POLITICS,

10:23

WHERE PEOPLE RANT ENDLESSLY

10:24

ABOUT ATTRIBUTING THINGS LIKE

10:25

THE FAILURES OF BOEING

10:26

MANUFACTURING AND MAINTENANCE

10:28

OF AIRCRAFT TO SOME KIND OF

10:30

LIBERAL ORIENTED HIRING PROGRAM

10:32

THAT GIVES JOBS TO UNWORTHY

10:34

CANDIDATES.

10:35

THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A MORE

10:38

UNWORTHY CANDIDATE FOR HOPE

10:40

HICKS JOB IN THE PRESIDENTIAL

10:41

CAMPAIGN OR IN THE WHITE HOUSE THAN HOPE HICKS.

10:43

THAN HOPE HICKS.

10:45

SHE DIDN'T NEED EITHER ONE OF

10:49

THOSE JOBS.

10:50

SHE WAS BORN RICH IN

10:52

CONNECTICUT.

10:52

SHE COULD HAVE TRIED TO DO

10:53

SOMETHING MORE WORTHY WITH HER

10:55

LIFE, OR AT LEAST DO SOMETHING

10:56

THAT WASN'T HARMFUL.

10:59

BUT, SHE CHOSE TO HELP DONALD

11:02

TRUMP BECOME PRESIDENT OF THE

11:04

UNITED STATES.

11:05

THAT IS WHAT SHE CHOSE TO DO.

11:08

THAT JOB CAME WITH A MODEL.

11:09

DENY, DENY, DENY.

11:10

THAT IS WHAT SHE WROTE IN AN

11:12

EMAIL WHEN THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN

11:13

TEAM OF INCOMPETENCE WAS TRYING

11:17

TO RESPOND TO THE BRILLIANT

11:19

REPORTING AT ""THE WASHINGTON

11:21

POST"," WHICH REVEALED THE

11:22

ACCESS HOLLYWOOD VIDEO IN WHICH

11:23

DONALD TRUMP IS SHOWN BRAGGING

11:27

ABOUT HIS FAVORITE METHOD OF

11:28

SEXUAL ASSAULT.

11:31

THIS ROCK TO THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN ON OCTOBER 7th, 2016 WHEN HE

11:35

ON OCTOBER 7th, 2016 WHEN HE

11:37

SENT AN EMAIL TO HOPE HICKS

11:41

ASKING FOR A COMMENT ABOUT THE

11:44

ACCESS HOLLYWOOD VIDEO, WHICH

11:45

HE CAME INTO POSSESSION OF

11:46

BEFORE ""THE WASHINGTON POST","

11:48

WOULD PUBLISH IT.

11:50

DAVID FAHRENTHOLD INCLUDED A

11:51

TRANSCRIPT OF THE VIDEO IN THE

11:53

EMAIL BUT NOT THE VIDEO ITSELF. " DID YOU READ MR. TRUMP THAT

11:54

" DID YOU READ MR. TRUMP THAT

11:57

EMAIL YOU RECEIVED FROM DAVID

12:02

FAHRENTHOLD?

12:02

ANSWER "I READ HIM THE EMAIL

12:04

AND I HAVE A VAGUE RECOLLECTION

12:06

OF STARTING TO READ THE TRANSCRIPT AND THEN HE FINISHED

12:07

TRANSCRIPT AND THEN HE FINISHED

12:09

READING IT HIMSELF, I BELIEVE .

12:13

DID YOU HAND HIM THE EMAIL FOR

12:15

HIM TO READ?

12:16

YES.

12:16

THAT IS MY RECOLLECTION.

12:17

QUESTION, WHAT IF ANYTHING DID

12:18

HE SAY?

12:19

HE SAID THAT THAT DIDN'T SOUND

12:20

LIKE SOMETHING HE WOULD SAY.

12:21

AND SO, ON THE BASIS OF THAT

12:25

LIE TOLD TO HOPE HICKS BY

12:26

DONALD TRUMP, THAT THAT DIDN'T

12:28

SOUND LIKE SOMETHING HE WOULD

12:30

SAY, HOPE HICKS TOLD THE TEAM

12:31

THAT THE STRATEGY WAS DENIED

12:34

HIM A DENY, DENY.

12:37

MEANING LIE, LIE, LIE.

12:42

HOPE HICKS DID A LOT OF THAT.

12:45

LYING, IN HER TESTIMONY.

12:46

SHE QUOTED DONALD TRUMP

12:48

LIGHTING TO HER.

12:51

ANYONE WHO KNOWS DONALD TRUMP

12:54

KNOWS THAT WHAT HE SAID ON THE

12:57

ACCESS HOLLYWOOD VIDEO DOES

12:59

INDEED SOUND LIKE SOMETHING HE

13:00

WOULD SAY.

13:01

HOURS LATER, THE VIDEO WAS OUT

13:03

THERE AND HOPE HICKS COULD

13:05

WATCH HIM SAY IT HERSELF.

13:07

SO, THE JURY HEARD HOPE HICKS

13:09

DESCRIBED DONALD TRUMP LIGHTING

13:12

DIRECTLY TO HER.

13:14

"HE SAID THAT THAT DIDN'T SOUND

13:18

LIKE SOMETHING HE WOULD SAY."

13:20

THAT WAS A VERY HARMFUL LINE OF

13:26

TESTIMONY ABOUT DONALD TRUMP.

13:28

INJURIES ARE ALWAYS WONDERING

13:29

IF THIS WITNESS IS TELLING THE

13:30

TRUTH, WOULD THIS PERSON LIE TO

13:31

US?

13:31

NOW THEY KNOW THAT DONALD TRUMP

13:33

LIED TO HOPE HICKS RIGHT THERE

13:36

IN THAT LINE ABOUT THAT VIDEO.

13:38

WHEN THAT VIDEO CAME OUT

13:40

PROVING DONALD TRUMP SAID EVERY WORD THAT WAS IN THE TRANSCRIPT

13:41

WORD THAT WAS IN THE TRANSCRIPT

13:43

THAT WAS ENOUGH FOR JOHN McCAIN

13:48

. SENATOR McCAIN TURNED AGAINST

13:50

DONALD TRUMP THEN.

13:51

THAT WAS ENOUGH FOR REPUBLICAN

13:52

SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE, PAUL

13:53

RYAN, WHO CANCELED A EVENT WITH

13:58

DONALD TRUMP.

13:59

REPUBLICAN CONGRESSMAN JASON

14:00

CHAFFETZ CAME ON THIS PROGRAM

14:01

FOR THE ONE AND ONLY TIME IN

14:02

HIS LIFE AND RETRACTED HIS

14:03

ENDORSEMENT DONALD TRUMP IN

14:07

THE NAME OF HIS DAUGHTERS THAT

14:11

VERY NIGHT. REPUBLICANS WERE

14:13

RUSHING AWAY FROM DONALD TRUMP

14:14

BECAUSE OF WHAT THEY HEARD HIM

14:15

SAY AND DO ON THAT ACCESS

14:17

HOLLYWOOD VIDEO BUT NOT HOPE

14:17

HICKS.

14:17

NOT HOPE HICKS.

14:20

IF YOU DON'T QUIT THEN, WHEN DO

14:21

YOU QUIT?

14:24

HOPE HICKS ANSWER?

14:26

NEVER.

14:27

HOPE HICKS WAS THERE IN

14:31

WASHINGTON ON THE WHITE HOUSE PAYROLL ON JANUARY 6th MAKING

14:35

PAYROLL ON JANUARY 6th MAKING

14:38

NO ATTEMPT AT ALL TO GET DONALD

14:46

TRUMP TO DO THE RIGHT THING

14:49

DURING THE ATTACK ON THE

14:51

CAPITOL, TO STOP THAT ATTACK.

14:52

WHAT DID SHE DO AFTER JANUARY

14:53

6th?

14:55

NOTHING.

14:56

SHE EVENTUALLY DID AN INTERVIEW

14:58

WITH THE JANUARY 6th COMMITTEE

14:59

WHERE SHE SAID AS LITTLE AS SHE

15:00

POSSIBLY COULD AND OFFERED NO

15:01

SIGNIFICANT HELP TO THE

15:02

COMMITTEE.

15:03

VERY LITTLE THEY COULD EVEN USE

15:04

IN THEIR PUBLIC REVELATION OF

15:04

THEIR EVIDENCE.

15:05

COMPARE THAT TO CASSIDY

15:05

HUTCHINSON.

15:07

THEY BOTH TOOK THE SAME OATH OF

15:15

OFFICE AS WHITE HOUSE EMPLOYEES

15:17

TO SUPPORT AND DEFEND THE

15:18

CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED

15:19

STATES AGAINST ALL ENEMIES

15:20

FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC.

15:21

HOPE HICKS, WHO HAD DIRECT

15:25

ACCESS TO DONALD TRUMP WHENEVER

15:29

SHE WANTED, DIDN'T SAY A WORD

15:31

TO DONALD TRUMP ON JANUARY 6th.

15:33

DIDN'T EVEN TRY TO.

15:34

CASSIDY HUTCHINSON, WHO DID NOT

15:35

HAVE DIRECT ACCESS TO DONALD

15:36

TRUMP, WAS DESPERATELY TRYING

15:37

TO GET HER BOSS, MARK MEADOWS,

15:38

THE WHITE HOUSE CHIEF OF STAFF,

15:39

TO CONVINCE DONALD TRUMP TO

15:40

STOP THE ATTACK ON THE CAPITOL.

15:41

CASSIDY HUTCHINSON BECAME THE

15:42

JANUARY 6th COMMITTEE'S MOST

15:43

IMPORTANT WITNESS.

15:43

CASSIDY HUTCHINSON HAS BEEN

15:44

URGING AMERICANS NOT TO VOTE

15:47

FOR DONALD TRUMP.

15:48

NOTHING LIKE THAT FROM HOPE

15:49

HICKS, NOTHING.

15:50

I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYONE IN THE

15:52

WHITE HOUSE TREATED THE WAY THE

15:56

WHITE HOUSE PRESS CORPS TREATED

15:59

HOPE HICKS. TALK ABOUT

16:00

PRIVILEGE.

16:00

THERE IS A VIDEO OF WHITE HOUSE

16:02

REPORTERS KISSING HER AS THEY

16:06

ARE GREETING AT WHITE HOUSE

16:07

PRESS BRIEFINGS.

16:08

THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN UNLESS YOU

16:13

ARE HOPE HICKS.

16:15

SHE CRIED.

16:16

THAT IS THE BIG NEWS OF THE DAY OUT OF THE COURTROOM.

16:18

OUT OF THE COURTROOM.

16:20

NO ONE KNOWS WHY SHE CRIED AT

16:24

THE VERY BEGINNING OF CROSS-

16:26

EXAMINATION.

16:26

I HEARD THREE DIFFERENT

16:27

THEORIES FROM REPORTERS ON THE

16:29

WAY OUT OF THE COURTROOM TODAY.

16:30

YOU WILL HEAR SOME THEORIES

16:31

DURING THIS HOUR FROM PEOPLE

16:32

WHO WERE IN THE COURTROOM WITH

16:33

ME TODAY AND ARE MORE

16:34

PERCEPTIVE ABOUT THAT.

16:35

I DON'T KNOW WHY SHE CRIED. AND, I DON'T CARE.

16:38

AND, I DON'T CARE.

16:41

I KNOW SHE DIDN'T CRY FOR THE

16:48

628 CHILDREN WHO WERE HELD AT

16:51

THE SOUTHERN BORDER IN CUSTODY

16:52

BY DONALD TRUMP, WHO WAS THEN

16:54

UNABLE TO FIND THEIR PARENTS

16:54

AND REUNITE THEM.

16:55

HOPE HICKS DIDN'T CRY FOR THEM.

16:57

AND WE CAN BE SURE THAT HOPE

17:00

HICKS HAS NEVER CRIED WHEN HER

17:01

MOTTO OF DENY TOOK HOLD IN THE

17:05

SUPREME COURT DECIDING TO DENY

17:07

WOMEN THE RIGHT THEY HAD FOR 50

17:09

YEARS IN THIS COUNTRY, LONGER

17:10

THAN HOPE HICKS HAS BEEN ALIVE.

17:12

I'M SURE SHE DIDN'T CRY FOR THAT 10-YEAR-OLD GIRL IN OHIO

17:13

THAT 10-YEAR-OLD GIRL IN OHIO

17:15

WHO HAD TO LEAVE THE STATE AFTER

17:20

BEING RAPED TO RECEIVE ABORTION

17:22

SERVICES IN INDIANA.

17:23

HOPE HICKS KEPT WORKING FOR

17:24

DONALD TRUMP TO BECOME THE

17:26

PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

17:30

AFTER SHE KNEW THAT DENY, DENY,

17:32

DENY, WAS A LIE.

17:35

A LIE SHE TOLD.

17:37

HOPE HICKS WATCHED THE ACCESS

17:41

HOLLYWOOD VIDEO AND THOUGHT

17:43

YES, YES, THAT IS WHO I WANT TO

17:45

KEEP WORKING FOR TONIGHT.

17:46

THAT IS WHO I WANT TO BE

17:47

PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.

17:49

I'M GOING TO CONTINUE TO WORK

17:51

AS HARD AS I CAN TO MAKE THAT

17:53

MAN ON THAT VIDEO BRAGGING

17:55

ABOUT SEXUAL ASSAULT BECOME THE

17:57

NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED

17:57

STATES.

17:58

THAT IS MY MISSION.

18:00

THAT IS WHO HOPE HICKS WANTED TO BE REELECTED AS PRESIDENT OF

18:02

TO BE REELECTED AS PRESIDENT OF

18:06

THE UNITED STATES.

18:11

AFTER HE RECOMMENDED INJECTING

18:13

BLEACH INTO YOUR VEINS TO YOUR

18:15

COVID-19.

18:16

THAT IS WHO HOPE HICKS WANTED

18:17

TO KEEP IN THE WHITE HOUSE.

18:18

WE HAD A MONSTER IN THE

18:19

PRESIDENCY NOT BECAUSE OF

18:20

DONALD TRUMP BUT BECAUSE OF THE

18:22

PEOPLE WHO VOTED FOR DONALD

18:23

TRUMP AND THE PEOPLE WHO WORKED

18:24

FOR DONALD TRUMP'S CAMPAIGN TO

18:25

GET HIM THERE.

18:26

YOU GET MONSTERS LIKE DONALD

18:28

TRUMP THANKS TO PEOPLE LIKE

18:28

HOPE HICKS.

18:31

PEOPLE WHO WHITE HOUSE

18:34

REPORTERS SOCIALLY JUST IN THE

18:35

WHITE HOUSE PRESS BRIEFING

18:36

ROOM, REPORTERS WHOSE

18:37

ACCEPTANCE OF DONALD TRUMP IS

18:39

WARMED BY THE CHARMS OF HOPE

18:40

HICKS.

18:41

WITNESS HOPE HICKS GOT OFF THE

18:43

WITNESS STAND WITHOUT BEING

18:44

ASKED THE MOST IMPORTANT

18:46

QUESTION OF HER LIFE.

18:49

SHE WASN'T ASKED THAT QUESTION

18:51

BECAUSE IT WASN'T AN IMPORTANT QUESTION IN THIS TRIAL.

18:54

QUESTION IN THIS TRIAL.

18:56

THAT QUESTION IS WHY DIDN'T YOU

19:02

QUIT? WHY DIDN'T YOU QUIT THE

19:04

PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN IN 2016

19:06

WHEN IT WAS SO OBVIOUS TO ALL

19:07

OF US THAT YOU WERE WORKING FOR

19:10

A PATHOLOGICAL LIAR AND A

19:11

DANGEROUS PERSON?

19:13

WHY DIDN'T SHE QUIT IS A MUCH MORE IMPORTANT QUESTION THEN
