Recently released transcripts show that President Donald Trump did, in fact, request National Guard troops be deployed before the January 6th protests, contradicting mainstream media narratives. These documents reveal Trump’s clear intent to ensure the safety and security of those attending the event, as reported by the Gateway Pundit.

General Mark Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, confirmed that on January 3, 2021, just days before the protest, Trump gave explicit orders for a National Guard presence.

Milley recalled Trump saying, “Hey, look at this. There’s going to be a large amount of protesters here on the 6th. Make sure that you have sufficient National Guard or Soldiers to make sure it’s a safe event.” Trump reportedly added, “I don’t care if you use Guard, or Soldiers, active duty Soldiers, do whatever you have to do. Just make sure it’s safe.”

Despite Trump’s clear directive, the Pentagon dragged its feet. Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund made an urgent request for National Guard support during the January 6th riot. Still, the Army’s Secretary representative denied the request due to concerns over “optics,” which contributed to the delay in response as violence unfolded.

Additionally, Acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller acknowledged Trump had mentioned the need for 10,000 troops, but dismissed the statement as “banter.” His lack of action further compounded the chaotic situation.

The report also highlights that Mayor Muriel Bowser and key Pentagon officials turned down offers of additional National Guard support, even after warnings from Trump’s team.

Subcommittee Oversight obtained the transcript, which directly counters the claims of the January 6th Committee, chaired by former Rep. Liz Cheney, and suggests that Trump never ordered the deployment of the National Guard. Evidence of these conversations was omitted from the committee’s final report.

Former Defense Chief of Staff Kash Patel revealed in an interview that Bowser declined National Guard assistance for political reasons, which led to inadequate preparation for the event. FBI Director Chris Wray’s failure to inform the Trump administration of possible unrest at the Capitol is also cited as a key factor that worsened the situation.

Despite the clear chain of events and Trump’s effort to maintain peace, the media and Democrats continue to place blame squarely on him. Nancy Pelosi’s role in rejecting additional security measures for the Capitol remains under scrutiny, with questions surrounding her communications on that day.

These revelations underscore the mainstream media’s willingness to suppress key facts and push a narrative that serves their political interests. As the facts come to light, it becomes evident that President Trump took proactive steps to avoid the chaos that unfolded on January 6th.
