Hmmm - when did Mitch’s term as majority leader end? January 20, 2021?

 

AP article in 2021 mentions McConnel:

 

Pelosi did not block the National Guard from the Capitol on Jan. 6

 

Regardless - the cult said Trump offered - and Nancy declined - where is the proof?

 

 

“Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy posed a similar question on Fox News saying, “Was there a decision by the Speaker not to have the National Guard at the Capitol that day?”

 

The answer is no.

 

“On January 6th, the Speaker, a target of an assassination attempt that day, was no more in charge of Capitol security than Mitch McConnell was. This is a clear attempt to whitewash what happened on January 6th and divert blame,” Drew Hammill, a spokesperson for Pelosi told The Associated Press in an email. 

 

The decision on whether to call National Guard troops to the Capitol is made by what is known as the Capitol Police Board, which is made up of the House Sergeant at Arms, the Senate Sergeant at Arms and the Architect of the Capitol. The board decided not to call the guard ahead of the insurrection but did eventually request assistance after the rioting had already begun, and the troops arrived several hours later.

The House Sergeant at Arms reports to Pelosi and the Senate Sergeant at Arms reported to McConnell, a Republican who was then Senate Majority Leader. There is no evidence that either directed the security officials not to call the guard beforehand, and Hammill said after the insurrection that Pelosi was never informed of such a request.”

 

Just another attempt by the cult to deflect AND

DR - where is the proof that Nancy rejected Trumps National Guard offer? 
 

If it happened - you know Trump would have released that correspondence immediately.

 

Why hasn’t that happened?

 

 It doesn’t work that way. The correct question is why didn’t Nancy request it?

JFC. It's in the USCP memo in black and white. 

 

The memo in its entirety is linked in the Solomon piece above. He quotes from the USCP memo timeline as follows, with direct quote from USCP memo bolded.

 

The Capitol Police official timeline provides the most succinct summary of a series of events around Sund's request, some of which have been disputed and at times misreported in the news media.

 

"COP Sund asks Senate Sergeant at Arms (SSAA) Michael Stenger and House Sergeant at Arms (HSAA) Paul Irving for authority to have National Guard to assist with security for the January 6, 2021 event based on briefing with law enforcement partner and revised intelligence Assessment," the timeline recorded. "COP Sund's request is denied. SSAA and HSAA tell COP Sund to contact General Walker at DC National Guard to discuss the guard's ability to support a request if needed."

 

And here is Kash Patel once again reiterating how he testified under oath to the J6 committee. Why can't we read his testimony? If he lied under oath there's another Trump crony that can be locked up, right?

 

"We went to the Capitol Police and the Secret Service and law enforcement agencies and Mayor Bowser days before January 6, and asked them, 'Do you want thousands of National Guardsmen and women for January 6?'" Patel said in a detailed interview earlier this year. "They all said no. Why did we do that? The law requires them to request it before we can deploy them. And the DOD IG found we did not delay, we actually prepared in a preemptive fashion, which is what we do at DOD."

Patel told Just the News on Wednesday night that the police timeline validated the account he has given to Congress.

 

"The Capitol Police timeline shows what we have been saying for the last year — that DOD support via the National Guard was refused by the House and Senate sergeant at arms, who report to Pelosi," Patel said. "Now we have it in their own writing, days before Jan. 6. And despite the FBI warning of potential for serious disturbance, no perimeter was established, no agents put on the street, and no fence put up."

For the 1000th time Trump cannot unilaterally order the NG to deploy. So Miller would be correct in that testimony because Trump or any President does not have the authority to deploy the National Guard.

 

Trump can, through the DoD, ask if those who are required by law to make the request to deploy the NG (SSAA, HSAA or DC mayor) if they would like to make that request.

 

Which is exactly what happened. The entities whose formal request is required turned down the opportunity for NG deployment multiple times.

 

Crickets indeed.

What I find interesting is that long long before there was ever a hint of a January 6th Tribunal, I happen to hear Mr Patel on a local radio station explaining how they offered the national guard. But now that the story has shifted from ‘Trump pushed for a riot’ to ‘Trump didn’t stop the riot’ the Clown Show has to look for another way to prove the conclusion they’ve already come to. Public ‘hearing’ my arse!

Patel has  requested that the J6 committee release his testimony transcript. Many times.  He has laid out what his testimony was to the committee in multiple interviews and backed up DoD adherence to the law by citing SC cases etc.

 

He says his testimony transcript is around 150 pages, with very little of it relating to J6. According to Patel much of the questioning was around other aspects of his work at DoD and with Devin Nunes exposing the Russia hoax. Why would the committee laser focused on finding out the truth and nothing but the truth about J6 go fishing off topic like that I wonder?

 

I'm sure we will find out when all the testimony transcripts are released in full by the end of September.

Intentionally quoting a liar as truth makes you a liar, so both. Or are you still unaware he said something very different a few months ago?

No outcry whatsoever over the assault and violence that occurred when Trump was inaugurated. 

No hearings.

Nothing.

In the violence, knots of activists in black clothes and masks threw rocks and bottles at officers wearing riot gear, who responded with volleys of tear gas and stun grenades as a helicopter hovered low overhead.

 

At one flash point, a protester hurled an object through the passenger window of a police van, which sped away in reverse as demonstrators cheered. Earlier, activists used chunks of pavement and baseball bats to shatter the windows of a Bank of America branch and a McDonald’s outlet, all symbols of American capitalism.

Multiple vehicles were set on fire, including a black limousine. A knot of people dragged garbage cans into a street a few blocks from the White House and set them ablaze, later throwing a red cap bearing Trump’s “Make America Great Again” campaign slogan into the flames.

Police said six officers were injured in scuffles with protesters. The people arrested would be held overnight before making court appearances on Saturday, Peter Newsham, interim chief of the Metropolitan Police Department, told a news conference. Newsham added that police would continue to monitor security around the night’s celebrations.

Friday’s protests played out just blocks from Pennsylvania Avenue, where New York businessman-turned-Republican politician Trump took part in the traditional parade a newly sworn in president takes from the U.S. Capitol to the White House.

 

Six police officers suffered minor injuries when protesters flung bricks, trash cans and other objects, and ignited small fires, Newsham said.

 “[T]here has been an unrelenting effort to make ‘insurrection’ a litmus test for anyone speaking about January 6th.”

 

 Plus: “If one does not use that term (and, worse yet, expresses doubts about its accuracy), you run the risk of immediate condemnation as someone excusing or supporting insurrection.

 

This framing also reduces the need to address the question of how this riot was allowed to spiral out of control….

 

The effort to mandate ‘insurrection’ as the only acceptable description prevents the country from speaking with a unified voice.

 

It clearly serves political purposes but only makes a national resolution more difficult as we approach a new presidential election.”

And I’ll venture this prediction: If the Biden Administration’s catastrophic downward spiral continues, the January 6 “insurrectionists” will eventually come to be seen as martyrs who tried to prevent a tragedy.
