Greg Kelly, the most successful host of MAGA Newsmax’s cable channel, dismissed the highly successful revelation that former President Donald Trump tried to call a witness to appear before the Jan. 6 House committee.
According to Kelly on Tuesday evening, this was a lot of noise for nothing because the former president probably just “marked” that person.
At the end of the explosive hearing on Tuesday, January 6, the committee’s vice president, Deputy Liz Cheney (R-WY), revealed that the former accused president twice tried to contact the unidentified witness, which has yet to be declared publicly, following the committee’s June statement. 28 audience. The witness did not answer the call and instead referred it to his lawyer, who then contacted the committee. Cheney then added that the committee referred the matter to the Department of Justice.
“We will take every effort to very seriously influence the testimony of the witnesses,” he stated.
Kelly, predictably, left the hearings in the trash on his prime-time broadcast, fooling himself into the “bomb” dropped by Cheney on the former commander-in-chief’s possible efforts to manipulate witnesses.
“Are you ready for that? Apparently Donald Trump made a phone call and no one answered it,” exclaimed the pro-Trump cartoon host. “But they’re acting like that’s a big problem.”
Kelly laughed saying the “joke committee” has “no authority” and then humbly boasted that Trump often hits him.
“By the way, not to leave names, but I’ve received a phone call from the president on more than one occasion, and you can’t really say he’s the one calling,” he said. “It has some system, you don’t know.”
But even if it was Trump who tried to call the witness, Kelly insisted, it was more likely an innocent setback.
“How do you know the president called him? And they didn’t answer,” he said as he picked up his smartphone. “Hey, maybe it was an ass dial, eh? Tell the Justice Department. “
