As they bring their long-running, extensive investigation to a close, preparing to disband as Republican leadership moves in at the beginning of the new year following their razor-thin midterm success, the January 6th House Select Committee has released their 845-page final report, chock full of evidence against the corrupt former president and his cronies. Along with their blistering report, and multiple criminal referrals to the DOJ against Trump and his Republican jockeys, the panel of investigators has begun to release damning transcripts of sworn testimony they obtained from some of the ex-president’s closest insiders.
The transcripts alone have shaped up to be absolutely detrimental to the scandal-ridden former president. But this one may truly be the best so far.
Among the transcripts that have been publicly released in recent days was sworn testimony from former Trump White House Deputy Press Secretary Judd Deere, whose deposition shed a series of damning lights on the inner workings of not only the ex-president’s actions but the state of his mind as well.
As we’re all WELL aware, an official schedule is released to the public, by the White House, every single day, outlining all of the official activities of the President — including briefings, meetings, and any public appearances POTUS will be making that day.

This is common knowledge if ever there were any — to everyone except Trump, apparently.
Former Deputy Press Secretary Judd Deere told J6 House investigators that the Trump White House adhered to this daily schedule precedent, up until 5, 2021. According to Judd, at that point, the Trump WH switched to a vague, catch-all daily statement saying that then-President Trump “many calls and have many meetings.”
Deere claims that this sudden change in the final weeks of Trump’s waning term took place because that was the point at which Donald Trump came to realize that his daily schedule was a matter of public record — and apparently, he didn’t like it.
“Every evening we prepared and released the daily guidance for the following day of the president’s public schedule,” Judd told the J6 House Select Committee in his sworn testimony to investigators. “Beginning sometime around mid- to late December, the president discovered that, for the first time, my understanding, that we released a public schedule of his to the public.”
“He wanted to change the way we did that,” Deere went on to explain, “and so what became the new version of the public schedule was basically a couple of sentences about what his day would consist of, rather than specific times and titles of events and an outline form.”
On the day before the deadly Capitol insurrection, White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany personally approved a release drafted by Deere that specifically mentioned Trump’s infamous “Stop The Steal” rally at the Ellipses that preceded and helped to incite the impending violent attack.
“President Trump will work from early in the morning until late in the evening,” Trump’s “schedule” from that day read. “He will make many calls and have many meetings. The President will depart for the Ellipse at 10:50am to deliver remarks at the Save America Rally.”
The reason why the WH daily schedule shifted to the president will have “many calls and have many meetings” format towards the end of the Trump WH was that Trump finally figured out the WH daily schedule was public, Judd Deere testified pic.twitter.com/HiN6vdWd1B

This man could barely string his own sentences together. This man absolutely had not the faintest clue about the daily operations of the United States presidency. This man had not an ounce of comprehension regarding how anything worked within the US government. This man is running for POTUS for his 3rd consecutive time.
