The Pentagon's Inspector General *CONCEDES* to a House investigation that it misled the American people about National Guard troops being delayed to respond to the J6 riots...

Today, the @OversightAdmn Chairman Barry Loudermilk (GA-11) sent a letter to Department of Defense (DoD) Inspector General (IG) Robert Storch, demanding a correction of the DoD's factually inaccurate January 6 report, as first reported by The Federalist."

"After a thorough investigation, the Subcommittee uncovered evidence substantiating that the Department of Defense intentionally delayed the deployment of the D.C. National Guard to the Capitol on January 6, 2021. In addition, the DoD IG concealed the extent and cause of the delay to protect Department of Defense and Pentagon leadership. The Subcommittee found multiple instances where the DoD IG failed to disclose evidence that contradicted the DoD IG's erroneous conclusion."

"The DoD IG’s report reflects an alarming failure to adequately evaluate the actions of senior DoD officials, including Secretary of the Army, Ryan McCarthy, who failed to communicate deployment orders to Major General William Walker, the Commander of the DCNG on January 6."

“My Subcommittee worked with the DoD IG in good faith throughout our investigation to provide multiple opportunities for the DOD IG to produce corroborating materials or evidence to support their conclusions,” said Chairman Loudermilk.

“Unfortunately, the DoD IG continues to promote an inaccurate narrative that protects senior Pentagon officials and attempts to cast fault on the D.C. National Guard, who were ready and waiting less than 2 miles from the Capitol but unable to respond on January 6 due to lack of communication from the Secretary of the Army.”

"My Subcommittee released transcripts that show that not only were political concerns of ‘optics’ at play, but that DoD officials continued to delay as the riot at the Capitol worsened. The evidence is conclusive: DoD officials misled Congress into believing that help was ‘on the way’ with full knowledge that it wasn’t.”

THE BIG QUESTION: *WHY* would the Pentagon delay sending troops to respond to the January 6 "insurrection" at the U.S. Capitol if it was putting the lives of Congressional members in danger?

How do you get convictions going through a DC jury? When Durham pursued the one small fish he brought to trial, the jury forewoman excused the acquittal by saying “There are worse things than lying to the FBI. “ meanwhile, Roger Stone.. well he got stoned for “lying to Congress.” (Let alone Mark Steyn’s corrupt trial). I believe the Secretary of the Army is a civilian, they have to go after the military people who can be court martialed, at least the jury pool will not be fore-ordained to acquit. The definition of “jury of peers” is the biggest civil rights question of our times. It always was , in the sense that part of the port bill in 1774 was that the crown wanted to try those it sa saw rebels in London rather than Boston. But even in revolutionary Boston in 1770, Adams was able to obtain acquittals for Preston and other troops involved in the Boston massacre. They were more objective then than a Dc, NYC or Austin TX jury would be today in acquitting D’s, convicting R’s.

By the time the national guard arrived, trespassing into the Capitol was pretty much over. How could it have been Trump‘s fault that the National Guard did not arrive in time?

The left never dreamed Trump would be POTUS 47. Justice is not revenge.

Note that the guy strolling around on the CNN/MSNBC dime, shouting encouragement to riot, and present when Ashli Babbitt was shot was Sullivan, who had already been involved in a riot out west where a person was killed, and Sullivan’s not exactly a Norwegian guy. If his fellow cops were racist as Walker is hinting at, Sullivan would have been taken down and given a beating. Instead, he was left alone.

“Then-President Donald Trump gave clear instructions to Pentagon brass days before the Jan. 6 riots to “do whatever it takes” to keep the U.S. Capitol safe, including deploying National Guard or active-duty troops, but top officials did not comply because of political concerns

Isn't this TREASON?

J6 was a diversion from the stolen 2020 election and an excuse to make a show of how much control the DC communist in power actually have over the American people. People involved in this coup need to hang.

Look up the definition of treason in the Constitution. It is very specific. It’s a hard charge to make the precedent set by Marshall at the Burr trial made it harder still. So, treason - no, sedition yes!

Be advised this junk was written in part by the ever-biased master of hyperbole, Eric Schmidt :

Aggressive Tactics by National Guard, Ordered to Appease Trump, Wounded the Military, Too

WASHINGTON — A white National Guard commander called the standoff in Lafayette Square “the Alamo,” implying that the White House was under siege. Black members of the D.C. Guard objected to turning on their neighbors. Army leaders told pilots to “flood the box with everything we have” as two helicopters buzzed protesters in the streets.

The National Guard is now engaged in an investigation of the havoc a week ago Monday in downtown Washington, similar to after-the-fact examinations more common to battlefields in Iraq and Afghanistan. There will be questions, interviews and competing narratives.

In other words, the hysterical wailing and gnashing of teeth over Trump stopping this June 2020 insurrection, to coin Nacy Pelosi’s favorite tern, may have contributed to a reluctance to deploy to act in Jan 2021.

There was definitely some orchestration going on.

Nancy knew what she was doing.

Partisan gain. They wanted a riot. They got a riot. Sending in the Guard when required would have ruined everything.

I bet Nancy had snipers at the ready that time she grabbed the biggest gavel she could find and went out with Cummings or whomever to parade through the exceedingly peaceful Tea Party protests in the hope of getting a racist reaction, and of course, got none from a Tea Party crowd, so she left disappointed. But you can bet she had forces at the ready to protect her boots investments.

Using blacks is her M.O.

She thinks everyone has to be as racist as she is. She kept trying to pull race into J6 as well, because it works in shutting down any real investigation.

The Deep State is in a crisis mode. They need lawyers and priests.

Lawyers to legally advise them. Priests to confess their sins to.

The military, the RAT leadership, the mayor, the pentagon, the FBI, the DOJ, etc. were all in cahoots to make it appear to be an insurrection to blame Trump. Eventually the whole truth will come out.

“Why” indeed. If they don’t have a reasonable explanation we can speculate. Or maybe they need to ask Speaker Pelosi.

Every political prisoner of the Bidenskkyyyyyyyy/Harris/Walzy regime should be released from prison immediately. It’s obvious that J6 was a trap set up the way the Congress scum bags set up conservatives to “testify” before the testicles and then throw them in jail for “perjury.” It stinks.
