Geez, you really are ignorant on these things and really don't know a lot, about what is going on around you! I don't mean that in a harsh way, like you are ignorant because you are just plain dumb! Cuz you're not dumb...I can see that clearly.
What you are, is more naive than ignorant.... You believe your right wing lying press and Donald Trump, and lack any interest in truth and facts because of that loyalty to Trump.

“We’re going to walk down to the Capitol,” he told the crowd.
Witnesses have told the House Jan. 6 committee that, immediately after Trump made that remark, Secret Service agents contacted D.C. police about blocking intersections, according to the people briefed on the testimony. Police officials declined, as they were stretched thin because they were monitoring numerous protests and later assisting with a growing mob at the Capitol, the people said. A senior law enforcement official told The Washington Post that the president’s detail leader scuttled the idea as untenable and unsafe.
A D.C. official on Tuesday confirmed that the Secret Service sought D.C. police for help with a presidential motorcade on Jan. 6.
“We were asked, and the response was no,” said Dora Taylor-Lowe, a spokeswoman for the D.C. deputy mayor that oversees the police department.
The testimony, which could be featured during high-profile hearings set to begin this week by the House Jan. 6 committee, indicates that several days before his speech, Trump had been eager to join supporters on a march to the Capitol. No permit had been issued for such a march, although some Trump allies were touting a march on far-right social media platforms as a way to pressure Congress not to certify Biden’s election victory.
Trump previously told The Post that his wishes to go to the Capitol on Jan. 6 were blocked by the Secret Service. But Trump’s early insistence on joining a march has not been previously reported, nor was it known publicly that Secret Service officials considered taking steps to transport him there just as the chaotic events were about to unfold.
The new details also reflect a growing focus by the House committee on whether Trump’s White House may have tried to drag this civil service agency into the president’s quest to block the peaceful transfer of power.
Five people died in the attack or in its immediate aftermath, and more than 100 police officers were injured as rioters streamed into the Capitol.

and this POLITICO article on Bobby Engel's testimony....weeks before Cassidy testifying....JUNE 8th

Trump privately raised Jan. 6 Capitol appearance with Secret Service agent, select panel hears
Robert Engel, the head of Donald Trump's Secret Service detail at the time, said they had
different views on whether the former president should join his supporters.
-----------------''-''
“We’re going to the Capitol,” he said. “We’re going to try and give them the kind of pride and boldness that they need to take back our country.”
When Secret Service agents heard the remarks, they reached out to law enforcement partners about the feasibility of transporting the president to the Capitol,
as the Post first reported. Engel opposed the move, saying it would have been unfeasible.
---------------'--------
Engel’s testimony stands in stark contrast to a claim from former Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.), Trump’s then-chief of staff. In his book “The Chief’s Chief,” Meadows wrote that Trump told him right after the speech that he was “speaking metaphorically” when he said he wanted to go to the Capitol.
----------------
Meadows has refused to answer questions from committee investigators.

The Secret Service, meanwhile, has fully cooperated with the congressional Jan. 6 probe, according to Guglielmi. He added that Secret Service personnel appeared before the select panel without having to be subpoenaed.
The Jan. 6 select committee is gearing up to start rolling out its findings this week. Its first hearing, airing Thursday at 8 p.m.,
