House Committee Drops Transcripts They Say PROVE Pentagon Ignored Trump's J6 National Guard Request

We’ve seen a lot of dishonest statements and allegations from the left about the events of Jan. 6 at the Capitol, with former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the corrupt J6 Committee dropping the most disinformation. 

One of the longest-running allegations is that Donald Trump knew violence was coming but did nothing to stop it. He never requested the National Guard, the narrative goes. He didn’t care what happened.

Chairman Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) of the Committee on House Administration’s Subcommittee on Oversight has a different view, however, and he has newly released transcripts to back it up. In a press release Friday, Loudermilk said the Pentagon brass simply ignored Trump’s requests:

“Pentagon leadership prioritized concerns of optics over their duty to protect lives,” said Chairman Loudermilk. “President Trump met with senior Pentagon leaders and directed them to make sure any events on January 6, 2021 were safe. It is very concerning that these Senior Pentagon officials ignored President Trump’s guidance AND misled Congressional Leaders to believe they were doing their job, when they were not. The DoD IG’s report is fundamentally flawed. It does not draw conclusions from the interviews they conducted, but pushes a narrative to keep their hands clean. We have many questions for them, and we will continue to dig until we are satisfied the American people know the truth.”

We’ve known some of this before, but the transcripts themselves are pretty startling. They all but tell the sitting president of the United States to shove off:

Then-Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley recalled that on January 3, 2021, three days before the protests, the commander-in-chief said he wanted a “safe event.”

MILLEY: The President just say, “Hey, look at this. There’s going to be a large amount of protesters here on the 6th. Make sure that you have sufficient National Guard or Soldiers to make sure it’s a safe event.”

[POTUS said] “Hey, I don’t care if you use Guard, or Soldiers, active duty Soldiers, do whatever you have to do. Just make it safe.”

Obviously, Milley did not fulfill his boss’ demands, and we all know how that turned out.

Then-Acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller’s comments, though, are even more shocking; he too recalls the former president asking for troops but just assumed it was “presidential banter.” Are you kidding me?

[On January 6, 2021] everyone was like, “Did you listen to the President’s speech?”  I’m like “the guy speaks for 90 minutes like it’s Castro or something.’ I’ve got work to do.”

Bias, much? Mocking the commander-in-chief while you’re serving under him? Disgusting. He flat-out admitted he was going to do what he was going to do regardless of what he was told:

“There was absolutely – there is absolutely no way I was putting U.S. military forces at the Capitol, period.”

Meanwhile, then-Chief Steven Sund of the Capitol Police said the Pentagon cared more about “optics” than keeping people safe:

[When Sund was requesting help] …the representative from the Secretary of the Army said, “I don’t like the optics of the National Guard standing in a line with the Capitol in the background.”

Unbelievable. As I mentioned, some of this has been known, but to read their actual words and see the hubris and defiance toward their commander is astonishing. We’ve seen so many lies told about what really went down, but these transcripts certainly seem to prove that Trump not only anticipated possible violence—but tried to prevent it.
