As you saw in those emails. The first report that we showed we now
know was sent in the eight o'clock hour on January 6th. This talked
about people in the crowd wearing ballistic helmets and body armor.
Carrying radio equipment and military grade backpacks.
The second report. We showed you on the screen was sent by the Secret
Service in the 11 a.m. our and it addressed reports of a man with
a rifle near the Ellipse.
Miss Hutchinson. In prior testimony you described for us a meeting
in the White House around 10 A.m. in the morning of January 6th involving
Chief of Staff Meadows, Antonio or NADO.
For you and that meeting.
I was. Let's listen to your testimony about that meeting, and then
we'll have some questions.
I think the last time we talked, you mentioned that, um some of the
weapons that people had at the rally included five polls. Oversized,
um, sticks or flagpoles bear spray. Is there anything else that you
recall hearing about the, uh, people who would gather in the Libertad?
I recall Tony and I have you in conversation with Mark, probably
around.
10 am 10 15 am where I remember Tony mentioning
lives. Guns in the form of pistols and rifles. Um, bear spray body
armor, spears and flagpoles. Spirits were one item flagpoles were
one item and then Tony had relayed to me.
Something to the effect of
these. I think people are fastening spears onto the ends of light
poles.

Tony Scott, right into his like, sorry to let you know and informed
him like this is how many people we have outside the mags. Right
now. These are the weapons that were known to have possible He listed
more weapons off that. I just don't recall. Um
And give him a brief but
In concise explanation but also fairly fairly thorough, and I remember
distinctly marked not looking up from his home.
Remember Tony finishing his explanation,
and it's taking a few seconds for Mark to says Names of Where where
I almost said Mark, Did you hear him? Um
And then bark. China was, like, all right, anything else still looking
down at his phone, and Tony looked at me and I looked at Tony and
Tony said No, sir. Do you have any questions
like what are you hearing
and I looked at Tony and I was like, so he just told you about what
was happening down at the rallies, and he was like, Yeah, I know.
And then he looked up and said, Have you talked to the president
and Tony said Yes, sir. He's wearing two and he said All right, good.
Yes, Tony. If Tony had informed, the president
said, yes, he had
So, Miss Hutchinson. Is that your understanding that Mr or Nado told
the president about weapons at the rally on the morning of January
