National Guard Whistleblowers To Share Bombshell Testimony That Trump Ordered Deployment On January 6
The planned testimony of whistleblowers from the Washington D.C. National Guard is set to challenge the narrative presented by the January 6 Committee regarding the events at the Capitol in 2021.
These officers are expected to tell Congress that then-President Donald Trump was prepared to deploy them during the protests, contradicting the committee’s testimony.
According to reports, these officers will claim that acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller gave advance approval for the deployment under Trump’s direction. They will also assert that then-Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy delayed the notice for deployment to D.C. National Guard Commander William Walker.
The whistleblowers believe that their testimony was rejected by the January 6 Committee because Democrats were solely focused on targeting Trump rather than addressing preparedness for future events. They will detail their experiences of waiting on buses dressed in tactical gear for hours to receive the order to deploy.
This testimony is significant as it corroborates Trump’s assertion that he ordered the National Guard deployment. It challenges the narrative that Trump deliberately delayed the deployment to obstruct the electoral certification process. Previous statements from Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund and General Walker have suggested that retired Lieutenant General Walter Piatt delayed or ignored requests for National Guard support, citing concerns about the optics of their presence.
The planned testimony of these whistleblowers sheds new light on the events of January 6 and raises questions about the actions and motivations of various officials involved. Click below for more…
