DOJ trying to indict former White House aide who testified about Jan. 6

The Department of Justice is reportedly presenting evidence to a federal grand jury regarding potential charges against Cassidy Hutchinson, a former aide to White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows. The investigation centers on allegations that Hutchinson lied to Congress during her 2022 testimony before the House January 6 Committee. Notably, the case is being handled by the DOJ's Civil Rights Division rather than the U.S. Attorney's Office for D.C., a move described as unusual by multiple reports. The specific statements under scrutiny have not been officially confirmed, though her testimony regarding Donald Trump's actions in a presidential vehicle has been a long-standing point of contention.
