ProPublica recently released a massive report as part of their ongoing investigations in the January 6th. And they were able to get their hands on text messages from Donald Trump, Jr's girlfriend, Kimberly Guilfoyle. And according to messages that Gilfoyle sent to people within the white house allies and associates of those people as well, specifically, one of them was Katrina Pearson. She was boasting about the fact that she raised $3 million for the January 6th stop the steel rally that preceded the capital riot that day. And she sent these text messages on January 4th, two days before the Capitol riot bragging about raising millions for this so-called stop. The steel rally, Katrina Pearson, the recipient of some of these text messages has in fact been subpoenaed by the January six committee. They're trying to get her to come and testify and turn over documents. Uh, an aid to Kimberly Guilfoyle has also eight or associate.

I forget which one, but not much difference between the two, uh, has also been requested by the committee, but Gilfoyle herself has not yet. And that immediately needs to change. Especially now with this new information that we have Gilfoyle needs to be subpoenaed. She is not protected under executive privilege. You can't even attempt to make that claim because she is not a member of the executive branch was not a member of the executive branch wasn't even associated, you know, by, by virtue of being married to or dating the executive branch. She was dating the executive branch has kid. She has no protections here at all. And if she was involved in setting up this rally, that's something we need to know more about. You know, we can't just say, oh, don't worry. The investigative journalists are gonna handle it. Sure. They're doing a bang up job out there exposing this.

But this goes back to what I've been saying. We barely know anything about what has happened. We haven't even started scratching the surface because we continue to get stories like this. We continue to get more revelations about new CU memos written by other Trump lawyers out there. There is so much unknown about the Trump family, the Trump administration's involvement in what transpired that day. And every time, every time a new story comes out, it obviously makes the administration look more guilty. And this story here with Gilfoyle raising money for this group, that to me seems about as guilty as you can get in all of this. And furthermore, it raises the question, why the hell did this group need another $3 million? Because we have to assume the money that Gilfoyle raised for them, the 3 million was not all that they had. I mean, how much money did it take to put on this rally?

And you, you need a stage. You gotta rent the space. I, I understand that, but that's not $3 million. You know, there's companies, especially in big cities like DC that put on events all the time that do these kinds of things, they set up a stage, a sound system. They break it down within a matter of hours, they put it back up somewhere else. They're quick. They know what they're doing. And it costs money shirt doesn't cost $3 million plus whatever else was raised. So that's the other question I have here. And that's a question the January six committee needs to look into, where did all the money go? What was all the money spent on and who all was out there raising money and what were their ties to this administration? In the early days of all of this investigation, I had actually said, I don't think Trump was involved in the planning of any of this that's changed.

And it's changed because we've gotten so much new information about all of this, that at this point, it's hard to even think that Trump wasn't involved. If you've got your kids, girlfriend, if you've got people in your white house, if your own chief of staff, Mark Meadows was in communication with the people setting up this rally, there is no way in hell. Donald Trump didn't know what was going on, but again, we have to continue uncovering this evidence.
