Smith admitted both on Thursday and in prior closed-door deposition that elements of Hutchinson’s testimony were based on “hearsay.” Hutchinson, a key witness for the Jan. 6 committee, claimed Trump lunged to grab the steering wheel of his presidential vehicle on Jan. 6 to redirect it the Capitol.

 Yet Smith didn’t rule out calling her as a witness.“Were you going to put her on the witness stand if you ever got to trial?” Jordan asked.

“We had not made final determinations as to who we were going to call as a witness,” Smith replied.“That’s the point,” Jordan said. “You didn’t rule out using her, or putting her on the witness stand, when everybody knows she wasn’t telling the truth. That says it all.”
