The January 6th committee never requested my public testimony as the Capitol Police chief. This raises questions about their intentions, as my testimony could reveal critical details about the events of that day and the days leading up to it, including the involvement of political leaders and their appointees.

Witnesses claim they met with witnesses who met with President Trump on January 4th, where he allegedly offered 20,000 National Guard troops to protect the Capitol on January 6th, but the offer was rejected. However, Trump's acting secretary of defense, Chris Miller, testified publicly that Trump never issued an order to deploy the Guard. Kash Patel and others confirm under oath that on January 4th in the Oval Office, they heard Trump authorize up to 20,000 troops for January 6th. According to one witness, the meeting was initially focused on serious national security threats, and Trump brought up January 6th at the end, authorizing the National Guard. The request to utilize the troops never came. The witness emphasized the meeting's primary focus was a foreign threat to the U.S. and that Trump was acting as any commander-in-chief would.

President Trump authorized 10,000 National Guard troops before January 6th, but the request was denied by Mayor Bowser and Pelosi. Capitol Police were blamed for not calling in the Guard earlier despite intelligence about a possible attack. There are allegations of a cover-up by Pelosi and Democrats, with claims of evidence being destroyed. Witnesses testify that Trump did authorize the Guard deployment. Calls for criminal referrals for obstruction have been made.

President Trump's administration did not need additional authorization to deploy National Guard troops on January 6th. The decision was influenced by Mayor Bowser's letter declining additional troops. Kash Patel's testimony, which was initially kept private, may have played a role in the lack of charges against Trump for insurrection.

President Trump's authorization was needed for the deployment of National Guard troops on January 6th. However, the mayor of Washington DC, in a letter, stated that no additional troops were required. Kashyap Patel testified about this before the January 6th select committee, but his testimony was not made public. Despite negotiations, the committee refused to release the transcript until the eve of its dissolution. Patel's testimony may be a key reason why President Trump was not indicted for insurrection.

We discovered a previously missing interview where it was revealed that Trump heard Mark Meadows offer 10,000 troops. In January, Vanity Fair reported that Trump authorized the National Guard and told Secretary Miller to prepare them. Additionally, a White House employee present during the Capitol attack stated that Trump’s immediate response was to contact Pelosi and Milley for assistance. There are multiple records showing that Trump offered the National Guard, but the requests were declined by Pelosi and Bowser.

The discussion centers on why the National Guard was not deployed to the Capitol on the morning of January 6. The explanation given involves a two-step process for authorization: first, authorization by the commander in chief, which had been obtained, and second, a request by the local governing body, specifically the mayor and the Capitol Police Bureau. Mister Patel confirms that there was a letter from Mayor Muriel Bowser dated January 5 to the Department of Defense stating that she would not be requesting any additional National Guard troops. Consequently, they were on standby but not activated due to the mayor’s declination of the request. Speaker 0 presses the point, implying that there was an offering or possibility to deploy the National Guard that was not executed, and suggests contacting the Mayor of Washington, DC to understand other outreach to police departments. The conversation repeats that the National Guard was not initially deployed and questions why they were blocked or not prepared from the outset. Mister Patel reiterates the key facts: the authority came through the commander in chief, the local governing body had declined to request additional National Guard, and thus there was no immediate deployment. Speaker 0 takes responsibility for not having the National Guard ready, suggesting a need to prepare more in the future. The exchange emphasizes the procedural sequence—authorization, local request, and the mayor’s declination—along with implications about preparedness and the perceived blocking or absence of National Guard deployment at the outset.

Witnesses claim they met with President Trump on January 4th, and that he offered 20,000 National Guard troops to protect the Capitol on January 6th, but the offer was rejected. According to Trump's acting secretary of defense, Chris Miller, Donald Trump never issued any order to deploy the guard to protect the Capitol. Four interviewees confirm that on January 4th in the Oval Office, they heard Donald Trump authorize up to 20,000 troops, two days before January 6th. Trump authorized up to 20,000 National Guardsmen and women for utilization should the request come in, but those requests never did. This was stated under oath under the threat of a penalty of perjury. The meeting was about a foreign threat directed towards the United States. The president then brought up January 6th, and was doing exactly what a commander in chief should do.

The speaker's team found a previously missing interview where a witness testified that Mark Meadows offered up to 10,000 troops. The speaker cites a Vanity Fair article from early January reporting that Trump authorized Secretary Miller to ready the National Guard. The speaker also references White House transcribed interviews where an employee stated that Trump's immediate response upon hearing about the Capitol attack was to get Pelosi and Milley on the phone to see what help they needed. The speaker claims there is on-the-record evidence that Trump offered the National Guard, but Pelosi and Bowser turned down the offer.

We began with the questioning of Kashif Patel regarding the deployment of National Guard troops on January 6th. Patel stated that there was no indication from senior DOJ leaders that they needed additional authorization from President Trump. He explained that the process required both the President's authorization and a request from local authorities, which was not made. Patel confirmed he had testified before the January 6th committee but was not questioned publicly, and his testimony was not included in their final report. It was suggested that his testimony could be pivotal in preventing charges against Trump for insurrection, as the special counsel, Jack Smith, would have pursued charges if there was sufficient evidence.

Kash Patel and others confirm under oath that on January 4th in the Oval Office, they heard Trump authorize up to 20,000 troops for January 6th. According to one witness, the meeting included Secretary of Defense Chris Miller, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley, and Chief of Staff Mark Meadows. The authorization was contingent on a request that never came. The meeting also addressed a foreign threat to the United States, and the discussion of January 6th occurred at the end.

President Trump's first witness, Kashyap Patel, was called to testify. He confirmed that no senior DOJ leader stated they needed more authorization from the president to deploy National Guard troops on January 6th. The reason for not having 10,000 troops guarding the Capitol was due to the need for authorization from the commander in chief and the local governing body, including the mayor and the heads of the Capitol Police. Patel's testimony was not made public, despite his request for a public hearing. The committee refused to release his transcript until the last moment. Patel believes his testimony is a key reason why President Trump was not indicted for insurrection.

Steve D'Antwono, the FBI director, received multiple emails warning about the violence expected at the Capitol before January 6th, but nothing was mentioned during a video call with him. The military had discussed locking down Washington DC and revoking permits on Capitol Hill due to concerns about violence. However, on January 4th, the acting secretary of defense issued a memo restricting the National Guard from carrying weapons or equipment for crowd control. This decision hindered the National Guard's response when assistance was desperately needed on January 6th. Governor Hogan even pleaded for help but was denied due to the memo. The situation doesn't make sense.

Speaker 0: Some Republicans argue that Nancy Pelosi staged January 6 and the select committee covered it up. Based on what you know, what are the verifiable events in the lead ups? Speaker 1: I was DoD chief of staff on January 6. We deployed National Guard; in the Oval Office the president, president Trump at the time, authorized pursuant to law up to 10 to 20,000 National Guard. We took that authorization because the law's second part required a request from who? Nancy Pelosi and the Metropolitan Police and the mayor at the time. And what did they say? No. And remember what happened for the next two years? They say, Oh, Kash is lying. Trump’s lying. And what do we find? Letters of their declination of the National Guard refusing to have the National Guard show up. Nancy Pelosi and her team were busy filming a movie on January 6 while this so caused chaos around her was going down. If she had just look at it this way. If she had said yes to the National Guard and we had 10,000 uniformed military officers establish a secure perimeter, do you think January 6 would have gone differently? Speaker 0: It is intriguing that 02/1950 FBI plain clothed agents were inside the Capitol on January 6. Speaker 1: This is a great example of the president's initiative to solve all the answers on January 6, and it's another example of our transparency efforts. Pursuant to the president, we investigated the matter and found out why FBI agents were placed there in the first place. And it turns out, we found documentation and witnesses and whistleblowers that said we were forced to go there to do riot control. Armstrong, do you know what the FBI does not do ever? Riot control. Speaker 0: And you believe them? That's their word, not mine.

The January 6th committee hid evidence that Trump called for 10,000 National Guard troops to handle unrest, suppressing a key transcript. Former White House deputy chief of staff Anthony Ornato's interview revealed Trump's efforts to protect the Capitol, contradicting the committee's narrative. This withheld testimony proves Trump offered troops to secure the Capitol, debunking the committee's claims. The committee's actions show they lied about Trump's involvement in January 6th, despite knowing he called for National Guard assistance.

Speaker 0 asks why Paul Irving, who had the authority, didn't give the okay. Speaker 1 explains that he testified at the Senate hearing in 2021 and disagreed with Speaker 1's recollection. Speaker 1 turned over his phone records and fought to testify. Speaker 0 questions why Speaker 1 wasn't allowed to testify since he was the chief of Capitol Police on January 6th. Speaker 1 explains that initially, the hearing was only for current employees, excluding the top 3 people in security. Speaker 1 called someone on the rules committee to request testifying and promised to show up in person. Speaker 0 highlights the denial of Speaker 1's request for national guardsmen, which was a pivotal moment.
