Capitol Police Chief Begged for National Guard: ‘Shots Fired on the US Capitol, Urgent Enough for You Now?’

As Gateway reported, Tucker Carlson sat down to interview the former Chief of the Capitol Police Steven Sund again, since his Fox News interview with Sund was canned after Tucker’s firing. Sund, who was never called to testify before the J6 committee, raises serious allegations against Nancy Pelosi, Mitch McConnell and the Pentagon leadership of Gen. Mark Milley.

According to Steve Sund, the intel agencies had had several warnings of potential violence ahead of Jan. 6, but they were not communicated to him. “On Sunday and Monday, they had been discussing locking down the city… because of the concern for violence. You know who issues the permits on Capitol Hill for demonstrations? I do,” Sund told Tucker.

“You know who wasn’t told? Me. Instead, on January 4th, what does (Acting Secretary of Defense Christopher) Miller do? He puts out a memo restricting the National Guard from carrying the various weapons, any weapons, any civil disobedience equipment that would be utilized for the very demonstrations or violence that he sees coming. It just doesn’t make any sense.”

“I’ve done many National Special Security events and this was handled very differently… It’s almost like they wanted the intelligence to be watered down for some reason”, Sund said. “It wasn’t right, the way the intelligence was handled and the way we were set up on the Hill.”

He IS the chain of command.

What part of that are you not getting?

He was the chief of the Capitol Police. Everything his officers did on that day is on him.

He had to have given the orders or so poorly trained his officers that they were willing to attack and kill unarmed protestors. Since they never did it before in all the years that people have been freely protesting in the Capitol something changed under his watch.

And yes, if you are given an unlawful order you are suppose to not follow it.

What is so very hard about understanding that?

"I vaz only following orders" as an excuse was squashed at Nirenberg.

You lied about watching the video.

I don’t waste my time on liars.
