From Twitter:

Sarah Matthews — @SarahAMatthews1

Fmr @WhiteHouse45 Deputy Press Secretary, Trump 2020 spox, etc. | Proud Ohioan | Views are my own. x Anyone downplaying Cassidy Hutchinson’s role or her access in the West Wing either doesn’t understand how the Trump WH worked or is attempting to discredit her because they’re scared of how damning this testimony is. — Sarah Matthews (@SarahAMatthews1) June 28, 2022 x For those complaining of “hearsay,” I imagine the Jan. 6 committee would welcome any of those involved to deny these allegations under oath. — Sarah Matthews (@SarahAMatthews1) June 28, 2022 And on the 1 year anniversary of Matthews’ abrupt resignation from the Trump Administration, in protest to the events of January 6th, 2021:

x One year ago, we as a country experienced one of the darkest days in American history.



Today, may we honor the lives lost as a result of January 6th, and may we reflect on the heroic actions of those who bravely protected the U.S. Capitol from a violent mob… (1/4) — Sarah Matthews (@SarahAMatthews1) January 6, 2022

x with the intent of overturning the will of the American people & stopping Congress from doing its job.



Make no mistake, the events on the 6th were a coup attempt, a term we'd use had they happened in any other country, and former President Trump failed to meet the moment. (2/4) — Sarah Matthews (@SarahAMatthews1) January 6, 2022

x While it might be easier to ignore or whitewash the events of that day for political expediency — if we’re going to be morally consistent — we need to acknowledge these hard truths. (3/4) — Sarah Matthews (@SarahAMatthews1) January 6, 2022

x One year ago, thanks to the courageous acts of many, democracy prevailed and Congress returned that night to ensure the peaceful transition of power. Let this day serve as a reminder of how fragile democracy truly is & the importance to protect, preserve, and cherish it. 🇺🇸 (4/4) — Sarah Matthews (@SarahAMatthews1) January 6, 2022

Hat-tip to Chris Cillizza of CNN, for highlighting these Tweets.

According Cillizza: Sarah Matthews’ public testimony to the 1-6 Committee is likely to be as consequential as that of Cassidy Hutchinson. Matthews is likely to appear before the Committee as early as next week.



Won’t it be ironic, if the worse misogynist to rise to power in modern American history, is forced to answer for his crimes, due to the very women in his Administration — standing up for democracy?

Karma’s a harsh mistress.

Stay tuned.
