White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany (n.d.):

"[T]he one specific I remember referencing was I don't agree with the Dominion track." . . . "I specifically referenced waving him off of the Dominion theory earlier in my testimony.". . .
[Q] "Are you saying you think he still continued to tweet that after you waved him off of it?"
[A] "Yeah . . ."[123]

President Trump:

Between mid-November and January 5, 2021, President Trump tweeted or retweeted conspiracy theories about Dominion nearly three dozen times.[124]

Trump Campaign Senior Advisor Jason Miller:

". . .the international allegations for Dominion were not valid."
[Q] "Okay. Did anybody communicate that to the President?"
[A]: "I know that that was—I know that was communicated. I know I communicated it"[125]

President Trump:

"You have Dominion, which is very, very suspect to start off with. Nobody knows the ownership. People say the votes are counted in foreign countries and much worse. . ."[126]

Attorney General Barr (11/23/20):

"I specifically raised the Dominion voting machines, which I found to be one of the most disturbing allegations—'disturbing' in the sense that I saw absolutely zero basis for the allegations . . . I told him that it was crazy stuff and they were wasting their time on that and it was doing great, great disservice to the country."[127]

President Trump three days later (11/26/20):

"[T]hose machines are fixed, they're rigged. You can press Trump and the vote goes to Biden. . . . All you have to do is play with a chip, and they played with a chip, especially in Wayne County and Detroit."[128]

Attorney General Barr (12/1/20):

"I explained, I said, look, if you have a machine and it counts 500 votes for Biden and 500 votes for Trump, and then you go back later and you have a—you will have the 1,000 pieces of paper put through that machine, and you can see if there's any discrepancy . . . there has been no discrepancy."[129]

President Trump one day later (12/2/20):

"In one Michigan County, as an example, that used Dominion systems, they found that nearly 6,000 votes had been wrongly switched from Trump to Biden, and this is just the tip of the iceberg. This is what we caught. How many didn't we catch?"[130]
