Former Trump campaign manager Bill Stepien will not appear for his scheduled testimony in front of the Jan. 6 committee "due to a family emergency," according to a release from the committee. Stepien's wife is in labor, a source familiar with the matter tells CNN, which is why the committee has released him from his subpoena for the day. CNN’s Kaitlan Collins and Manu Raju report. #CNN #News
Ex-Trump campaign chief won’t testify at Jan. 6 hearing
I would have guessed he has a book coming out and wouldn’t want to spoil it
thats why you shouldnt guess, or think for that matter. like at all…
Samuel, don’t guess, it’ll make your hair fall out.
That’s a valid excuse , congrats to him and his wife , but hope to hear what he has to say next week if it comes to be
@NalyDJ420 🤣 Absolutely! The troll farms are gonna be working overtime while this hearing is going on.
I hope everything goes well with him and his family congrats 🎉🎉
Play a drinking game every time Mr. Stepien says “you know”. You’ll be intoxicated in minutes.
I noticed him saying that a lot too lol
@Tom Armstrong Why go to the circus when the only thing there are clowns?
Hannity and Ingram are at home watching it on cnn. 😂
People don’t watch CNN anymore. Having you seen the ratings?
😁
@M Hall the rating created by yourself? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I could have sworn I saw the campaign chief did appear on a zoom interview. He might not have been there live though.
I think that was a recorded video/audio clip from previous testimony.
@TheDiamond2009 you are not even from here. Stay out of our business clown.
@Emily Mabrey agreed 💯 pre recorded!!!!
that was him in his previous appearance before the committee that was closed door.
I wonder if Ray Epps is ever going to be brought in to testify?
Have to say, life happens. As long as he ‘truthfully’ terrifies at some point, ok.
He’s going to ask for paternity leave.
They’ve got his testimony on tape, so no problem.
He shouldn’t.
They’re coming to take you away soon.
Awwww. May it be an easy delivery for a beautiful and healthy child. This may sound strange to many but the timing of the arrival of a child is perfect. For a baby’s first cry heralds with it hope for the future.
What?! How many cats do you “own”?
I can see it now. ‘The MAGA Documentary: Detached from Reality.’
I’m still waiting for Eric Holder to testify. Oh wait different narrative.
Same book though!
Thaaat’s right…let’s deflect to something which happened YEARS ago, with no relevance to ANYTHING.
Ah, the old “my wife is in labor” ploy, 😂 That one’s pretty hard to fake. 😂 😂 😂
She is two months pregnant 😘👍
Um, there was an assassination attempt on a supreme court justice’s life. You know, actual relevant news? Hello? Anybody home?
Imagine channels having Jan 6 videos with comments turned off. Imagine watching cherry picked clips and believing there’s only one side to this. Imagine not wondering why there’s no footage outside the Capitol and how the first ppl got/lead in. Hmmmmm
@T L only if you think bashing windows in and climbing through.. (Which was clearly shown in the Thursday night hearings..) is being “let in”.
If the committee misrepresents their testimony, the witnesses could sue. It’s illegal.
She has the baby and he comes and testifies– sure a minor delay maybe. Is his wife in labour for weeks or something- hope not?
You know….the thing that happened at some capitol building….
