The meeting with Cipollone comes as the committee gathers evidence on former President Donald Trump’s involvement in the Capitol riot.
"It would look like we were obstructing justice," Cipollone explained, according to Hutchinson.
"I remember Pat saying something to the effect of, 'Mark, we need to do something more. They're literally calling for the vice president to be effing hung,'" she said.He thinks Mike [Pence] deserves itCipollone did not respond to CNBC's request for comment. A spokesman for the select committee declined to comment.
The committee has yet to reveal the topic of its upcoming hearing, scheduled for 10 a.m. ET on Tuesday. Chair Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., said last month that the panel would hold its final two public hearings in July. Vice Chair Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., previously said that those hearings will show how Trump illegally directed his supporters toward the Capitol, and then failed to take quick action to quell the riot once it began.
