  • Rep. Adam Kinzinger accused former Secret Service agent Tony Ornato of trying to discredit Cassidy Hutchinson.
  • The Republican told CNN this week that members of the Jan. 6 panel believe Ornato led the charge.
  • Ornato retired in August — two months after he emerged as a key figure in Hutchinson's testimony.

Members of the House Select Committee investigating the January 6 Capitol riot believe former Secret Service agent Tony Ornato was personally involved in efforts to discredit former Trump White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson's testimony, according to a report from CNN.

Rep. Adam Kinzinger, one of two Republican members of Congress on the committee, told the outlet this week that representatives on the panel think Ornato led the charge in contradicting parts of Hutchinson's public testimony earlier this year while he was still at the agency and additional, unnamed agents then backed his claims.

The longtime Secret Service agent who ran former President Donald Trump's security detail left the agency last month, saying in a statement that he retired in order to pursue a career in the private sector.

Ornato emerged as a key figure in Hutchinson's bombshell testimony before the committee in June.

Hutchinson testified that Ornato told her Trump had tried to grab the steering wheel of the vehicle he was traveling in and lunged at a Secret Service agent while demanding to be taken to the Capitol during the chaos of January 6, 2021, as he said, "I'm the effing president!"

In the aftermath of Hutchinson's testimony, anonymous sources began to reject her version of events in the press. Several media outlets reported that Secret Service agents were willing to testify that Trump did not try to lunge at them or take control of the vehicle on January 6 — though none have done so publicly.

Now, Kinzinger is accusing Ornato of being one of the anonymous culprits behind the backlash. 

"I just think it's so important to keep in mind that, through quote, anonymous sources, which we believe to be actually Tony Ornato himself, he pushed back against Cassidy Hutchinson's testimony and said, it's just not true and Tony will testify under oath. And then, of course, has not come in to testify under oath," the Republican told CNN.

Kate Driscoll, a lawyer for Ornato did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment, but told CNN that her client plans to "continue cooperating in the investigations related to the events of January 6."

In response to pushback against Hutchinson's initial testimony, Rep. Liz Cheney, who is the top Republican on the January 6 panel, threw her full support behind Hutchinson and a DC police officer later backed up her claims, testifying that Trump had a "heated exchange" with his security team after they refused to drive him to the Capitol amid the insurrection. 

CNN reported this week that investigators have also learned new information about a series of deleted Secret Service test messages regarding the Capitol attack, citing anonymous sources who said it's unclear whether the texts are recoverable.

A spokesperson with the Secret Service pointed Insider to the agency's June 30th statement in response to Hutchinson's testimony:

"As we have done in the past, the United States Secret Service will make individuals with first-hand knowledge of the conversations and interactions referenced by the Committee available for sworn testimony. We are awaiting the opportunity to do so."

  • PA gubernatorial candidate Mastriano touted an endorsement from Joseph Kolakowski, an ultra-orthodox rabbi.
  • Kolakowski has expressed sympathy for Capitol rioters and believes Hitler was part lizard.
  • Kolakowski told The Philadelphia Inquirer he felt Mastriano was being "unfairly maligned" as antisemitic.

Pennsylvania GOP gubernatorial candidate Doug Mastriano touted an endorsement from Joseph Kolakowski, an ultra-orthodox rabbi who expressed sympathy for Capitol rioters and believes Hitler was part lizard.

The Philadelphia Inquirer reported Mastriano shared a story by the Epoch Times, a far-right publication, with his supporters on social media with the headline: "Rabbi Endorses Mastriano as Shapiro Calls Him Antisemitic in Pennsylvania Gov. Race."

In the article, Kolakowski — who leads a Hasidic Jewish ministry in Pennsylvania — defended Mastriano, saying, "while the Democrats have the chutzpah to claim that those of us from the Party of Lincoln are somehow racist, they do not look at the racist tenants of their own party, including abortion and gun control, both of which cause undue and disproportionate harm to people of color, and are historically rooted in openly racist ideologies."

The Inquirer reported the 38-year-old rabbi frequently posts on his YouTube channel about unfounded claims of fraud in the 2020 election, his support for Capital rioters, and believing in a theory that Adolf Hitler was part lizard. 

In one video about the Nazi dictator, the rabbi said there's "a reason why he never took off his boots."

"[It] was to hide the fact that his feet were reptilian in nature because he came from this nonhuman race, demonic race. He was a hybrid."

In an interview with the news outlet, Kolakowski said he felt Mastriano was being "unfairly maligned" as antisemitic. He said he reached out to the state senator's campaign and was asked to write something. His statements were later published in the Epoch Times.

Jewish leaders and Democrats have criticized the Trump-backed candidate for his ties to far-right extremists and his efforts to garner support on Gab, a social network founded by a self-described Christian nationalist.

Mastriano praised the site's founder, Andrew Torba, who has said Jews are not welcome in his movement. Insider reported that Mastriano also paid the site $ 5,000, per campaign finance filings.

Mastriano is running against Democratic candidate Josh Shapiro in Pennsylvania's gubernatorial race. Recent polls show Shapiro ahead of his opponent by 7.3 points.

Mastriano's campaign and Kolakowski did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.

Former President Donald Trump is facing a DOJ investigation into whether he mishandled top-secret documents.

  • Michael Cohen thinks Trump could be have copies of the top-secret files found at Mar-a-Lago.
  • Cohen said Trump might have stashed the documents at his homes in Bedminster and New York.
  • Cohen also suggested that these files might also be in the homes of Trump's children.

Michael Cohen, who was once former President Donald Trump's lawyer, believes Trump likely has copies of the classified documents the FBI seized from Mar-a-Lago stashed in other locations. 

Cohen was reacting on Twitter to an article from The Washington Post on the Department of Justice's recent court filing, in which the DOJ suggested that Trump's team may have concealed or moved top-secret files when officials were probing the matter.

"I believe Trump has copies, potentially other documents as well, at other locations including his children's homes, Weisselberg's florida home, Bedminster, NJ golf course, Fifth Avenue apartment, etc…" Cohen tweeted.

Cohen was referring to Allen Weisselberg, the Trump Organization's former CFO, who in August admitted to orchestrating a payroll tax-dodge scheme at the organization.

During its search of Mar-a-Lago on August 8, the FBI seized 11 sets of classified documents, including some marked "top secret" and files that may have concerned nuclear weapons. According to the warrant for the search, the DOJ is looking into whether Trump broke any of three federal laws — including the Espionage Act — by keeping the documents at his Florida residence. 

This week, the DOJ also released a photograph from their search of Mar-a-Lago, which showed several folders bearing the word "top secret" strewn across the floor.

It is unclear if the former president ever made copies of these documents, or if these copies are being kept at the former president's other homes. A representative at Trump's post-presidential press office did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Insider. 

Cohen was Trump's lawyer and close confidante for a decade. In 2018, he was the subject of a search of his home and office, as part of a Trump-related investigation into illegal hush-money payments to adult-film star Stormy Daniels. 

Cohen pleaded guilty in 2018 to felonies including tax evasion, campaign finance violations, and bank fraud. He was sentenced in December 2018 to three years in prison and was disbarred in February 2019 by the New York Supreme Court.

For his part, Cohen has weighed in on many aspects of the Mar-a-Lago raid. He celebrated the news of the raid, saying that Trump was finally being "held accountable."

He later weighed in on how Trump was likely nervous about a potential mole at Mar-a-Lago and said he would not be surprised if one of Trump's children or his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, was an FBI informant.

Cohen has also posited that Trump may attempt to find a scapegoat for any offenses uncovered by the Mar-a-Lago raid, such as his former lawyer, Rudy Giuliani. He also speculated that Trump likely kept the classified documents as a "bargaining chip," so he could threaten the release of classified information to America's adversaries as a "get-out-of-jail-free card."

The Portuguese boss returns to Stamford Bridge on Saturday as his Manchester United side take on Maurizio Sarri’s in-form Blues.

Chelsea are still unbeaten and sit atop the table alongside Manchester City and Liverpool, chiefly thanks to their Belgian superstar.

Mourinho worked with Hazard in his second managerial stint at The Bridge and believes that, should the forward stay fit, the West London club have a great of sealing it once more.

The United manager said: “The results speak for themselves.

“Obviously they are not playing in the Champions League.

“That puts them just in the Premier League, and in the Premier League the results speak for themselves.

“Very good results, top of the league and of course lots of good players.

“History says that when Eden Hazard is the best player in the Premier League, Chelsea are the champions.

“It happened with me and Antonio [Conte] and this season – it is still the beginning of course.

“But if he is the best player in the Premier League until now, which he is, Chelsea is top of the league because he is the kind of player who can make a huge difference.”

Hazard revealed earlier in the week he would enjoy playing for Mourinho again.

But while the United boss would be delighted to have him, he knows there is no chance would ever sell to one of their biggest rivals.

“I would love to have him at United but I don’t think Chelsea will sell him,” he said.

“Chelsea is led by intelligent and experienced people and they would never sell Eden to Manchester United.

“He is a nice kid. We had a good relationship. We were champions together.

“He was for the first time the best player in the league with me, so I think the feelings are good.”

Mourinho has asked for more time before responding to his FA charge of using foul and abusive language following United’s 3-2 win over Newcastle before the international break.

Mourinho is alleged to have sworn at TV cameras in his native Portuguese and had until 6pm last night to respond.

But United have asked for more time before officially responding and FA bosses have given Mourinho a new deadline of 6pm on Wednesday.

It means he will be on the touchline at Stamford Bridge today, where Chelsea may have to do without England midfielder Ross Barkley, who picked up a knock in the Nations League win against Spain this week.

Zidane quit Real Madrid after less than three years in charge of the club back in June.

The decision to leave came after he guided Real to a third consecutive Champions League triumph.

Zidane cited exhaustion as his reason for leaving the Bernabeu, despite Perez’s wishes that he stay on.

The Frenchman was expected to take a year-long sabbatical but there is increasing speculation he could be set to replace Jose Mourinho at Manchester United.

And news of Zidane’s plans to return to football earlier than expected has filtered back to Perez.

According to Spanish newspaper El Confidencial, Zidane has ‘disturbed’ Real president Perez with his intentions of returning to management.

Perez is said to be disheartened that Zidane is not taking at least a year away from elite club football.

The Frenchman recently confirmed he is looking for a new job, saying: “Surely soon I will return to training, because I like it and it’s what I’ve done all my life.”

And Perez has joined the dots, believing Zidane is all set to be appointed as United boss after reports emerged that the Red Devils have contacted the former France star regarding a possible future vacancy.

Pressure is building at Old Trafford over the future of Mourinho, who has cut a frustrated figure since the end of last summer.

laboured to secure new signings for Mourinho in pre-season, landing just three first-team players.

They have lost two of their four Premier League games at the start of the campaign and are already off the pace of frontrunners and title challengers Liverpool and Chelsea.

El Confidencial claim Mourinho is ‘on a tightrope’ and a switch to Zidane is a viable option.

The boss would likely bring in a different approach to Mourinho’s school-master style that appears to have exhausted the players in recent months.

There is talk of deals for Toni Kroos, Thiago Alcantara, James Rodriguez and Edison Cavani if Zidane came in.

Zidane supposedly has offers from other clubs, with France’s Ligue 1 a division he would like to manage in.

But PSG’s position is filled by Thomas Tuchel, while Lyon have excelled with Bruno Genesio in the hot seat for the past three years.

A chance to manage the France national side was suggested before the World Cup but Didier Deschamps’ job is more than secure following Les Bleus’ victory in Russia this summer.

The report claims Zidane is biding his time and waiting for to get the axe, knowing he is first choice at United.

However, any decision by the United board is not expected to come for some time.

After all, Mourinho has been backed with over £300m of new signings over the two years he has been at the club.

He has guided United to League Cup and Europa League triumphs already, while the club finished second behind Manchester City last term.

United want to keep Martial at Old Trafford going forward following a pre-season of speculation regarding the 22-year-old’s future.

Mourinho was angered when Martial’s agent, Philippe Lamboley, revealed the forward was keen to move having been ommitted from France’s World Cup-winning squad.

However, Manchester United have decided to offer the former Monaco ace the chance to stay put until 2023 so they can protect his transfer value.

Martial has entered the final 12 months of the initial four-year deal he put pen to paper on when joining United in the summer of 2015.

United have offered him the one-year option in his original contact on top of this season to take him to 2020, plus another three years.

Martial is happy to sign the new deal because he believes he will outlast Jose Mourinho at United.

Mourinho’s position at Old Trafford is safe for now, but he is under increasing pressure to turn around United’s worst start to a Premier League campaign since 1992.

The Portuguese wanted to offload Martial this summer and fined him two weeks wages when he returned late to the club’s US tour after leaving to attend the birth of his son, Swan, in Paris.

Martial is very much on the fringes of the first team and Mourinho hauled him off after 60 minutes in the 3-2 defeat to Brighton in his only appearance this season.

Mourinho was desperate to replace Martial with a more experienced winger as he sought to close the gap on champions Manchester City.

Gareth Bale, Willian and Ivan Perisic were all earmarked as options by the United boss.

But Ed Woodward opted against sanctioning deals for any of that trio as Mourinho endured a summer of transfer frustration.

Mourinho was also after a centre-back to provide the solid defensive platform he has built his past success on.

Although United were unwilling to stump up big money for Toby Alderweireld, Harry Maguire or Jerome Boating.

Alex Sandro, likewise, was lined up as a target by Mourinho to replace Luke Shaw at left-back.

However, the Brazilian stayed at Juventus and Shaw has since enjoyed a renaissance of sorts, starting all three of United’s opening Premier League games.

Shaw has dismissed talk of discontent behind the scenes at United, saying: “It is a sad night for us [vs Tottenham], we have got to pick ourselves back up, keep working hard and we need to pick up points after two losses.

“We need to win and win in a good way. We played really well in the first half and if we keep playing like that, and take our chances, then we will win games.

“You see a lot of things in the media that go on about what our dressing room is like, but we have a really good spirit, a really good group of lads who want to work and achieve big things here.

“We have a group of hard workers and amazing talents, everywhere you look on the field. We have got to start taking our chances and I am sure we will start winning games.”

WASHINGTON — Uber Chief Executive Dara Khosrowshahi said on Wednesday that the ride-sharing company still believes in the prospects for autonomous transport after one of its self-driving vehicles was involved in a fatal crash in Arizona last month.

A 49-year-old woman was killed after being hit by an Uber self-driving sports utility vehicle while walking across a street in Phoenix, leading the company to suspend testing of autonomous vehicles.

Khosrowshahi declined to say when the company might resume testing or what might have gone wrong. He said the company was cooperating with federal investigators and dealing with the incident “very seriously.”

The accident has raised questions about the lack of clear safety standards for such vehicles.

But, speaking at a transport forum, Khosrowshahi said Uber was still betting on the technology in the long-term.

“We believe in it,” he said, adding that Uber considered autonomous vehicles “part of the solution” and in the long-term key to eliminating individual car ownership.

“Autonomous (vehicles) at maturity will be safer,” he said.

The company’s interest in investing in bike sharing and public transit should not be interpreted as a move away from self-driving cars, he added.

The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) are investigating the incident.

“They are a neutral party,” said Khosrowshahi. “They understand this.”

“We’ll figure out what we do afterwards.”

Arizona’s governor suspended Uber’s ability to test self-driving cars on public roads in the state following the crash. Arizona had been a key hub for Uber’s autonomous project, with about half of the company’s 200 self-driving cars and a staff of hundreds.

Governor Doug Ducey last month called a video of the incident “disturbing and alarming” and the crash “an unquestionable failure.”

NTSB chairman Robert Sumwalt on Tuesday told Reuters he had no update on the investigation.
