A co-host of ABC’s highly progressive morning program “The View” has been named in a recently published U.S. House report that advocates for a criminal investigation into Liz Cheney for potential witness tampering, indicating that she may soon require legal representation.

Alyssa Farah Griffin, the relatively moderate member among the five co-hosts and a former spokesperson for Trump, engaged in “coaching” sessions with Cassidy Hutchinson, a witness who provided testimony during Cheney’s congressional hearings regarding the heavily scrutinized January 6th, 2021, incident at the Capitol. In the report, House Subcommittee on Oversight Chairman Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) asserts that Farah Griffin significantly assisted Hutchinson in formulating her public responses — all without the presence of legal counsel. The report categorizes such actions as “witness tampering,” which constitutes a federal offense.

In the months leading up to Hutchinson’s significant private and public testimony, Cheney engaged in communication with Hutchinson, both directly and via an intermediary, Alyssa Farah Griffin, while Hutchinson was under the representation of her attorney, Stefan Passantino. The Select Committee conducted a total of six transcribed interviews with Hutchinson, with Passantino serving as her legal counsel during the initial three sessions, as reported by the Oversight Committee, according to the Gateway Pundit.

A series of text messages exchanged between Farah Griffin and Hutchinson, which were made public on social media, reveal a shared animosity towards President-elect Donald Trump, a sentiment that united them as they prepared to attribute blame to him for the events of January 6. On May 2, 2021, Farah Griffin noted, “Hmm ok. That was definitely Liz’s direction,” indicating her awareness of Cheney’s intended investigative approach. In contemplating how her testimony might be perceived, Hutchinson inquired, “Can you tip off Liz?” to which Farah Griffin responded, “I am happy to tip Liz off.”

Hutchinson, who was formerly the Special Assistant to the President and Coordinator for Legislative Affairs for White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadow, testified as Cheney’s “star witness,” Loudermilk writes in his report, and as such was critical in assigning blame to President-elect Trump for the violence which occurred that day. Among other revelations, Hutchinson testified that she had seen Trump reach across the driver of his vehicle and lunge for the wheel in an effort to return to the White House at a time when Secret Service agents had deemed it unsafe. In her testimony, Hutchinson described being “disgusted” by Trump’s actions, calling them “unpatriotic” and “un-American.” Following the end of the J6 committee, Hutchinson stated in a televised interview that she corresponded with Farah Griffin for more than a year, “backchannel[ing] for a third interview without my former attorney’s knowledge at the time, with one of my good friends, Alyssa Farah Griffin.”

“Hutchinson’s messages indicate that she and Farah Griffin colluded to create a false story about why Hutchinson needed to do a third transcribed interview for the Select Committee,” the report goes on. It also notes that Hutchinson began a “dramatic change in testimony” following interference by Cheney and Farah Griffin.

If Farah Griffin is in legal jeopardy as a result of Loudermilk’s investigation, it would be another devastating blow for ABC, which earlier this week agreed to pay President-elect Trump $16 million to settle a defamation lawsuit. The network’s executives are already contemplating a total overhaul of “The View” in a bid to add more pro-Trump voices. They have also forced far-left hosts like Sunny Hostin to read legal disclaimers on-air afte
