21 this is how events go. It is very hard for people to believe that, but my story establishes that this is true.

So when I tried to go backstage, this guy in military boots and all this other stuff who has a Women for America badge on him—America First blocks me. He's, like, you're not going out there, Ali. I'm, like, how does this dude know my name, but a lot of people know he my name. But he said it with a personal, you know—it was almost like this had been prepared, you know.

And so, that let me know that I did not get screwed over by Caroline, that this was something that happened in the last minute. Where it happened, I would just have to figure out in the months or weeks later. My answer is going long, isn't it? So—so yeah, I think that answered your question.

We'll come back toa little later when we get to the day of January 6th. But sticking with the evening or the day of January 5th, in that same message, to Ms. Willis you say Trump is supposed to order us there. Order us, it refers to the Capitol complex after the speech at the Ellipse. Was this—did you come to this understanding through Ms. Caroline Wren? Is that who told you that?

That was—that was—that was 11 months ago, I couldn't tell you how exactly I came to that understanding. It is obvious—I can tell that you Liz Willis is a good journalist. I'd have no reason in this text message at 7:19 a.m. to lie. And I do know that I'm obviously pretty busy at this moment firing off a text and hoping that it that it gets through the condensed cell tower, you know, there's a lot of people there. And so, you know, during these things you're chattering with a lot of people so.

So you don't know how you came about telling Ms. Willis that Trump was supposed to order us? You don't remember haw you came to that conclusion?

Eleven months later with the specificity that is required when swearing
