I want to know who the hell Meadows was talking to in the car....

she stated she was asked to let Meadows know that the mob was getting close to the Capitol. She said he was in the car on a phone call. She walked to the car and tried to open the door and he immediately shut the door on her. She said she waited a moment then tried to open the door and again he shut the door on her. She said that was very unlike him and she thought it was important that he knew that they were at the Capitol and the Capital police were beginning to have trouble. She said it was 25 min before he got off the phone and got out of the car.

She finally told him the info she was asked to convey and all he said was how much longer was left in the presidents speech, that was his only reaction. This was exactly at the time the initial group of Proud Boys were beginning to go after the police at the bike racks, the testimony we heard from the first day and before the main flow of the rest of the rally goers started heading down.

Cheney made a point to set that timeline twice. Who the hell was on that 25 min call as this was going on? I have a feeling he was in direct contact with Stone and/or Flynn and/or the organized "first strike" attackers who were to "soften up" and open pathways for the mob to get into the Capitol. That's super damning stuff for Meadows if they have a record of that call.

were they all using burner phones?

Also - he might have been on multiple calls in that 25 minute period - not just one long call.

Though I doubt Meadow and the Trump conspirators had a legitimate use for anything.

What Meadows said when he laid his two phones down on her desk and went to the dining room.

the night before working with the great military mind of Flynn. Theres a 20-25 min gap when Proud Boys started at the Bike racks and the rally goers finally showed up. They showed that the first week.

explain why he had no reaction when Hutchinson gave him updates on the hell that was breaking loose at the Capitol. He already knew in advance that they were going to try to invade the Capitol, plus whoever he was on the phone with was giving him real-time updates as it all transpired. So he was not in the least surprised by what Hutchinson was reporting to him. That's my guess.

They may have other evidence to corroborate. She was just setting it up. That seems to be what they're doing with a lot of this evidence.

But I think the initial attack was meant to strategically open up a secure path using the main body of the mob so Fat Nixon could walk up the steps undeterred. Probably a crazy "attack plan" designed the night before in the "war room" by Flynn to get him inside.

And like I said, this was before the big mob got to the Capitol. dRumph was still speaking during this time.
