Miller told DailyMail.com he felt 'threatened' by the January 6 Select Committee

Bombshell claims give an look inside the panel's alleged intimidation to stop a direct witness sharing a story that didn't 'fit their narrative'

Said panel wanted him to stay silent about Trump authorizing the National Guard

Donald Trump's former acting Defense Secretary Chris Miller claims the January 6 committee threatened to 'make his life hell' if he kept claiming his former boss authorized National Guard deployment during the Capitol riot.

In an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com, the former Director of the National Counterterrorism Center said he became 'fearful' of aggressive tactics by members of the Democrat-led panel who tried to stop him speaking publicly about a narrative that didn't align with their final report.

Miller's bombshell claims follow a report by Republican Rep. Barry Loudermilk that reveals the committee withheld a transcript from an interview with a top White House official where he told Vice Chair Liz Cheney and other staffers that Trump did want to deploy troops.

Cheney did not immediately respond to a request for comment on whether she or any other members of the Select Committee corresponded with witnesses in a way that could be interpreted as threatening.

Trump appointed Miller as the Pentagon chief in November 2020 after he fired Mark Esper amid attempts to overturn Joe Biden's presidential election victory.

“ Chris Miller.....YOU ARE A COWARD!!!!”

I’ve never been in his position but, I can imagine it’s easier calling someone out as a coward from behind a keyboard than it is standing up to government officials that have the power to destroy people.

True courage is actually rare.

I would call the guy normal—a coward—but normal.

A thread?
You are way too optimistic

Yes! And all if not most on that committee were involved in the Russia collusion coup attempt.

We have so much more dirt on Democrats than Democrats have on us when it comes to “insurrection”, all of it is constantly ignored.

What about the Jan.20th 2017 terror attack that tried to stop Trumps inauguration? COMPLETELY brushed under the rug and forgotten about. Cops were attacked, property was damaged, burned, and not ONE person involved in that was charged, all charges were dropped and Republicans said NOTHING.........

How is it that we all knew Trump wanted to send in 10k National Guard but Pelosi and the DC black chick refused it. Why would Miller be intimidated by the select committee? Why didn’t he press charges against them and come out swinging like a year ago about this?

All that and more.
The DemonRat Party is at war with America.
They want to destroy the Constitution and crush the people.

It is just that simple and undeniably true.
