The Washington Post reports that Republicans avoided subpoenaing Mark Meadows' former Chief of Staff Cassidy Hutchinson last year to avoid the embarrassing fallout of her testimony. An aide to House Speaker Mike Johnson worried Hutchinson could bring up sexually explicit texts from GOP representatives.

Republicans investigating the Jan. 6 committee were reportedly warned that subpoenaing key witness Cassidy Hutchinson could turn up “sexual texts.”

The move was intended in part to prevent the release of sexually explicit texts that lawmakers sent Cassidy Hutchinson.
