Feb 1, 2021 Letter from former Capital Police Chief Steven A. Sund to Nancy Pelosi and other Congressional Leaders [PDF]
FOX News ^ | February 1, 2021 | by Steven A. Sund

Posted on 02/09/2021 5:24:37 AM PST by Oldeconomybuyer

... As previously mentioned, the IICD intelligence assessment indicated that the January 6th protests/rallies were “expected to be similar to the previous Million MAGA March rallies in November and December 2020, which drew tens of thousands of participants.” The assessment indicated that members of the Proud Boys, white supremacist groups, Antifa, and other extremist groups were expected to participate in the January 6th event and that they may be inclined to become violent.

... This mob was like nothing I have seen in my law enforcement career. The group consisted of thousands of well-coordinated, well-equipped violent criminals. They had weapons, chemical munitions, protective equipment, explosives, and climbing gear. A number of them were wearing radio ear pieces indicating a high level of coordination.

... What occurred on January 6th cannot be considered under any circumstances a protest, a rally, or civil disobedience. This was a well-planned, coordinated, armed insurrection at the United States Capitol. The USCP does not have the manpower, the training, or the capabilities to handle an armed insurrection involving thousands of individuals bent on violence and destruction at all costs.

... Finally, I must add that I wish that before placing the blame on the USCP and on me as the Chief for the breach of the Capitol by an insurrectionist mob, more consideration would have been given to the impact of incomplete information provided by intelligence assessments, the denied National Guard request, and the subsequent delayed approval for National Guard assistance. Greatly outnumbered and against tremendous odds, they kept the Members safe. I truly regret my early departure from an agency and a mission I so cherished. Working with the women and men of the USCP, sworn and civilian, and serving the congressional community, was the highlight of my 30 year law enforcement career.

Note, this is a brief excerpt. The second paragraph is the most important.

Heard about this 8-page letter on the Mark Levin Show yesterday. Clear first-hand evidence the Capital riot was a pre-planned and coordinated Antifa operation. President Trump had nothing to do with it, and EVERYONE in Congress knows it. The impeachment is a FRAUD and a FARCE.

It was not an “armed” anything.
If it had been, it would have been a bloodbath.

"They had weapons, chemical munitions, protective equipment, explosives, and climbing gear."

I did not see any weapons or chemical munitions or explosives being used by the crowd. On any video from any source.

Anyone? Buehler, Buehler...

a technicality that irritates me is how a sitting president can cause an insurrection. he cannot. on jan 6th, donald trump was the government. he did not mean to overthrow himself.

and epstein didn’t kill himself.

Ditto to your statement. This letter is nothing but CYA on the police chief’s part.

‘Like nothing he has seen’?

Really?

Last summer was nothing compared to this?

Where did this police chief spend his career? Disneyland?

The only arms fired in the capitol building on Jan. 6 were wielded by an officer of the capitol police or a security officer employed by the capitol police on an unarmed woman who at no time presented any physical threat to the officer. Her name was Ashli Babbit. We still do not know the name of the officer who killed her nor his current or future status with the capitol police. The liberal media is exhibiting no interest in informing us either.

When the White House was attacked last summer, dozens of secret service were injured by thrown bricks. Only a high, strong fence kept the W H property from being overrun.

With all the warnings about Jan 6, not beefing up the number of security, and keeping the lame “bicycle rack” barriers, means that TPTB actually WANTED what happened (or worse) a “Reichstag Riot” they could exploit politically.

Exactly. Thousands of armed people? Thousands?! I saw a few dozen Antifa people dressed as Trump supporters. I saw one panicked capital police officer shoot a 110 pound woman. That's it.

The point isn't about them being "armed" -- it's that the assault was pre-planned and coordinated by outside groups... Trump's speech could not have "incited" anything ... and everyone in Congress and the media knows it.

He screams about “weapons” how come no “weapons” were recovered? How come no one with an earpiece was arrested and the piece seized? How come no one caught with an earpiece or weapon has been brought before the cameras? Where are the customary display of weapons, and other gear after “attacks” occur? I’m guessing there was no display because there weren’t any of these kinds of things to display.

From all the video I’ve seen it looked like the overwhelming majority of those who entered the Capitol were waved in and even observed the velvet rope lines. There appeared to be a few who were breaking windows, but I haven’t seen any kind of real destruction that one would normally see in an actual “riot” much less an actual “insurrection”.

But adding “armed” is a blatant lie and an attempt to make Jan 6 into something it never was.

An “armed insurrection” would have involved gun battles, firefights, hostage taking, etc.

It’s as big a lie as calling last summer’s arson riots “mostly peaceful,” but in the other direction.

“They kept the members safe”

Did anyone actually attempt to harm any member of Congress?

IIRC last summer, a man with a knife coming at a policeman was considered “unarmed”. Now people mostly just walking through the Capitol, with some carrying flags, are considered armed. When most people read “armed” they think of guns, which is what the Ministry of Truth media wants people to believe.

Sounds like a load of B.S. to me.The only people armed at the Capitol were Antifa members and the Capitol Police.

Both groups are associated with Nancy Pelosi..

This whole Capitol Riot incident was created by Pelosi and the rat party to make President Trump and his supporters look evil. Like Nancy Pelosi’s storm troopers in BLM and Antifa.

Three things can be true:

1. An “armed insurrection” would have involved gun battles, firefights, hostage taking, etc.

2. Trump’s speech had nothing to do with “inciting” the Capital riot.

3. The impeachment is another fraud, and everyone in Congress knows it.

Just out of curiosity.

How many ANTIFA/BLM type “events” were nothing but violence? All of them as that is the intended purpose.

How many rallies for Candidate and President Trump had ANY violence? None of them. Hell, at his rallies the people cleaned up after themselves and left it nicer than when they got there.

What’s the truth about Ashli Babbitt? I’ve seen video that makes a strong case that the killing was a staged production.
