Trump Pentagon first offered National Guard to Capitol four days before Jan. 6 riots, memo shows

[Care4all]

And therein lies the rub. None of us know his motivations beyond him telling the rally goers to protest peacefully. You should examine your sources and post them for discussion. If they're just printing their opinions, then what you've read isn't fact.

As said, it was about 4 seconds of saying go peacefully down to the capitol, AFTER ONE HOUR of a rebel rousing speech that incited, promoted hatred, and lies to get them exited, like you need to fight, fight like hell, or you will never have a country any more and shit similar....

4 seconds....maybe 10 seconds at most.....and you think that mattered after the one hour of divisiveness? As was witnessed, it didn't work and was never meant to....it was a measly CYA.

And WHY did he want to go down to the Capitol with his crowd? He knew the ones who were right outside the MAGS at the Ellipse had guns and were heading down there, to the Capitol.

In general, the president never goes to the Capitol, without an invitation from the speaker or majority leader of senate....Separation of powers.

We know trump was happy about the rioters....many witnesses testified to that....

What were his plans if he went down there??? I guess we'll never know, since he was prevented from doing it.

Of course it matters. I just find it interesting how many people think they know every nuance of intention from reading off of their favorite hate sites. TRUMP! knew full well there was no way a ragtag mob could in any way topple the US government. That's ludicrous in the extreme to believe. I mean, seriously now. What he wanted was a loud demonstration to let Congress know there were people angry at a perceived to be corrupt election. IOW, he was reverting back to the way he thought as a democrat, for whom the primary means of communication is a demonstration and a riot.

He wanted security at the capital, so obviously he didn't want to "topple the government".

Dimmers are whiny soap opera extras.

How about Sec of Defense Chris Miller

Fucktard

From the memo, page 31:

Mr. Miller and GEN Milley met with the President at the White House at 5:30 p.m. The primary topic they discussed was unrelated to the scheduled rally. GEN Milley told us that at the end of the meeting, the President told Mr. Miller that there would be a large number of protestors on January 6, 2021, and Mr. Miller should ensure sufficient National Guard or Soldiers would be there to make sure it was a safe event. Gen Milley told us that Mr. Miller responded, “We’ve got a plan and we’ve got it covered.”

Trump ordered SecDef to make sure the DC protests were peaceful and safe.

The left's whole narrative is based on lies. That doesn't stop you from believing them.

That was trump toadie Kash Patel putting his spin on it.

Miller said that suggestion was made "to protect Trump's people" and he took it no further.

You have a complaint...tale it up with Miller

 

[Lesh]

And for all that

Trump did nothing to get those troops to the Capitol on Jan 6

hmmm

Not gonna bother. You'll just go NUH UH and pretend you refuted everything.

 

[struth]

That was the PLAN.

He never tried to stop it until it was obvious that the attack had failed and the count would go on

the Cap Police Timeline in the OP undermine your false narrative

Why do you think the Cap Police are liars?

TRUMP! knew full well there was no way a ragtag mob could in any way topple the US government.

What he KNEW was that they were armed

And their job was not to "topple the government" but rather to stop the electoral count and let other Trump toadies take it from there

I wonder how much time the "Committee" will spend on this tonight? Oh, none?

Official Capitol Police timeline validates Trump administration's account, shows Democrats' fateful rejections of offers. "Seems absolutely illogical," one official wrote about security posture hours before riot began.​

...​

​

But by late December, Capitol Police internal emails and documents show, information began flowing in that some groups expected to attend were talking on social media or fringe websites about tactics like blocking tunnels leading to the Capitol.​

​

On Sunday, Jan. 3, 2021, just hours after Gallagher rejected the Pentagon's initial offer, the Capitol Police issued a new and darker security assessment to its commanders and executives and to the two political appointees in Congress responsible for security, the House and Senate sergeants at arms, the timeline shows.​

​

"Due to the tense political environment following the 2020 election, the threat of disruptive actions or violence cannot be ruled out," the new assessment declared. "Supporters of the current president see January 6, 2021 as the last opportunity to overturn the results of the presidential election. This sense of desperation and disappointment may lead to more of an incentive to become violent."​

​

Within 24 hours, Sund had changed his mind and began seeking permission from the political powers surrounding House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer to deploy the National Guard as a preventive measure on Monday, Jan. 4, 2021.​

​

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.​

​

...​

​

While Sund's requests were being delayed and denied, the Pentagon was forging ahead on Jan. 4, 2021 to get Trump to formally sign authorizations to deploy in advance of Jan. 6, 2021 as many as 20,000 National Guard troops if Congress asked, according to interviews Just the News has done with then-acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller and his chief of staff Kash Patel.​

​

"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."​

​

As word circulated around the nation's capital that Sund wanted National Guardsmen deployed, District of Columbia Mayor Muriel Bowser wrote a preemptive letter to Miller and other Pentagon and Justice Department officials asking that troops not be deployed unless the Metropolitan Police Department approved, citing an incident in summer 2020, when troops were deployed at Lafayette Park near the White House during civil disobedience,​

Why would he ask Schumer when it is McConnell who is the head of the Senate?
