“We can’t lose the entire WH counsels office,” Sean Hannity wrote to Chief of Staff Mark Meadows on Dec. 31, 2020, the House committee revealed on Tuesday. “I do NOT see January 6 happening the way he is being told.'
The U.S. House committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol riot revealed more exasperated texts between Sean Hannity and the Trump White House, imploring the Fox News host to cooperate the ongoing probe.
That message, the committee wrote to Hannity, “suggests that you had knowledge of concerns by Trump’s White House Counsel’s Office regarding the legality of the former President’s plans for January 6th.” Such information, the committee’s chair Rep. Bennie Thompson and vice chair Rep. Liz Cheney wrote in their letter to the Fox Host, “are directly relevant to our inquiry.”
Furthermore, the committee wrote, Hannity had a conversation with Trump in the days following the Capitol riots, and expressed to Meadows and MAGA loyalist Rep. Jim Jordan concerns about the president’s state of mind and possible actions he may take leading up to Biden’s Jan. 20 inauguration. Appearing on CNN shortly before the committee’s letter went public, Rep. Zoe Lofgren said of Hannity: “We’ve asked him to cooperate with us as a fact witness out of his sense of patriotism, and we hope he will respond because we have so many of these texts and pieces of evidence indicating that he was outside of his role as a press person acting as a political operative.”
